Meet the Care Bears
The 10 original Care Bears were...
Bedtime Bear: It’s nighttime and Bedtime Bear’s job has just begun. His job is to make sure everybody gets a good night’s sleep. Being strong, brave and alert make him the perfect bear to stand guard over your bedroom.
Birthday Bear: Birthday Bear’s goal is to make sure that everyone has a happy birthday. He is fun-loving and a live-it-up kind of bear. He embodies the spirit of the celebration. He’s also a big fan of opening presents and eating large quantities of party food.
Cheer Bear: Cheer Bear is the Care Bear’s cheerleader. She is a very happy bear who helps others see the bright side of life. Sometimes she even does a cheer to help make someone happier.
Friend Bear: Friend Bear is the perfect example of a friend and she would love to be your best buddy. She’s caring, likes to play and always fun to be with.
Funshine Bear: Sharing enthusiasm for life and all its possibilities is what Funshine Bear does best. No matter what people are doing, Funshine Bear, an energetic bear, makes sure everyone has a good time.
Good Luck Bear: This bear is loaded with luck and good fortune follows him wherever he goes. Good Luck Bear shares his good luck with everyone and is almost always smiling.
Grumpy Bear: This is a Care Bear who is a bit of a grouch. His grumpiness is to remind us that an occasional grouchy mood is all right - as long as it doesn’t last too long.
Love-a-Lot Bear: There is a lot of romance in this bear’s job. Love-a-Lot brings lovers together. She’s usually spunky and lighthearted, the embodiment of the spirit of first love. She’s a true believer in the power of love but is not afraid to help it along.
Tenderheart Bear: Tenderheart Bear is the unofficial leader of the Care Bears. Helping people share their good feelings for each other is his job. He’s very affectionate and not afraid to display his affection openly. By helping people show they care, Tenderheart Bear helps spread love and make it grow.
Wish Bear: Wish Bear helps make people’s wish come true. She believes that there’s not a worry in the world that a wish won’t wipe out. Wish Bear is a dreamer because her wishful thinking makes others’ dreams come true.
