List Of Care Bear Characters

The Care Bears are a group of characters created by the U.S. greeting card company American Greetings in 1981. The title characters originally appeared in card artwork by Elena Kucharik, before branching out into various media and merchandise. The franchise launched in 1982 with ten title characters, and in 1984 added several more characters known as the Care Bear Cousins.

Each of the Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins has a "tummy symbol"—a picture or pattern that indicates the role or speciality of the character bearing it. Beginning with Care Bears: Oopsy Does It!, "tummy symbols" (as they were originally called) are referred to as "belly badges."

    To bear with fools is mightiest might.
