Care Bears Costumes

The Care Bears certainly have a history of being cute, cuddly, and (obviously) caring. These soft and sweet bears (and the other animals that make up their cousins) have been tickling us pink for around forty years! It's hard to imagine that these cuties are that old. But, if anyone is going to show us how to stay young at heart, it is likely going to be a group of critters that know all about hearts in the first place!

Most folks know that the Care Bears started out as characters on greeting cards. If you didn't—surprise!—they were created in 1981 initially with ten of the iconic characters who've stuck with us ever since. The first lot of Care Bears included Tenderheart Bear leading up the crew, along with Love-a-lot Bear, Good Luck Bear, Funshine Bear, Friend Bear, Cheer Bear, Bedtime Bear, Wish Bear, Birthday Bear, and, of course, Grumpy Bear. A couple of years later, we'd find them as plushy stuffed teddy bears and by 1987, we'd have five movies and be halfway through their first TV series. 

There would eventually be over 50 different Care Bears. We also got to know 11 Care Cousins, including Brave Heart Lion, Bright Heart Raccoon, Cozy Heart Penguin, Gentle Heart Lamb, Lotsa Heart Elephant, Loyal Heart Dog, Noble Heart Horse, Playful Heart Monkey, Proud Heart Cat, Swift Heart Rabbit, and Treat Heart Pig. 

Now it's time to get to know your favorite character of all by picking up a Care Bears costume. We have a wide variety of plushy costumes all crafted from custom fur, featuring bright colors and the unique belly badges of dozens of denizens from the Kingdom of Caring. You can enjoy a look all your own or create a fantastic group costume so everyone can line up and unleash the powerful Care Bear Stare. 

But, how do you choose which character costume is right? Well, it helps to know that most of the characters have some special powers that are all their own. Did you know that Wish Bear is a great friend with the Wishing Star and can help to grant actual wishes to those with a giving heart? Bedtime Bear might seem a little narcoleptic, but he's actually the one that helps give people good dreams by watching over everyone at nighttime. Friend Bear has the amazing ability to understand all languages, everywhere. (That's pretty important when it comes to making new friends, after all.) Grumpy Bear isn't left out of the signature powers, either. While he seems to be the one who doesn't care at all, Grumpy knows how to find the silver lining in all of our cloudy days to show us how to appreciate the gloom, too! 

Develop your special powers and feel cozy the whole time when you hop into one of our bright and delightful Care Bear costumes. Officially licensed and Made by Us, you'll find that these costumes are perfect whether you loved them in the '80s or just started the fun with the newest CGI shows.
