What Parents Need to Know
About Care Bears: Adventures in Care-A-Lot
Parents need to know that the cheerful bears in this cartoon series learn positive lessons about feelings and caring, including the importance of being a good friend, the value of honesty, and the fact that it's OK to ask for help when you need it. Kids will relate to storylines that illustrate how responsible youngsters resolve issues with friends and work together to ensure everyone's happiness. A potential speed bump for very young viewers may be the stern, sometimes-menacing character Grizzle.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about feelings and how we express them. What kinds of things make you angry? How does your mood change when your feelings are hurt? Do you talk to anyone about how you feel? How else can people deal with feelings? How do you respond when a friend is feeling down? If you were a Care Bear, what would your special caring ability be?

cute show primarily
It is warm and friendly and children of older ages should be encouraged to think about the consequences and behavior messages.

Great show for toddlers
My toddlers love Care Bears - old and new. We are all excited about this new version. There is a little bit of danger/violence,but it is appropriate for their age level. They love it. It helpsthe children learn about different issues they face. This episode deals with fear of unknown things. We discuss this after the show. Having examples they have seen really helps teach these issues.
