Cheer Bear

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 30 years, chances are you've heard of the Care Bears. This 1980's property tells the story of bears who live in the clouds and occasionally come down to help the children of Earth. The bears themselves come in a variety of colors and their cloud haven, the Kingdom of Caring, is full of rainbows:

But the bear who loves rainbows the most, and is (of course) my favorite Care Bear, is Cheer Bear!

She's there to brighten the day of any child (or grownup *wink*) who is sad or lonely. And with that rainbow belly, I say she's the prettiest of the Care Bears too ;)

The Care Bears were given a make-over a few years back, but I was happy to recently learn that a new Care Bears cartoon series will be debuting on The Hub channel this summer, and the bears are back to looking like their original, cuddly selves :)
