Category cover

Care Bears have been around for more than 30 years and a wide range of toys exist today for both adults who grew up with the original bears and kids who discovered them in their revamped style. Toys exist that are modeled after the modern version of Care Bears and that are modeled after the original Care Bears from the 1980s. Classic Care Bear toys are typically meant both for kids and for adults who grew up with Care Bears and either want to collect them or give them to their children. Plush animals are popular with both the modern version and classic, but other toys are also available including collectable figures and bath time toys.
