that girl

I watched this quite a lot while babysitting as a teenager

Ah! I LOVE this one! We had a VHS of it when I was little and watched it many times. Everything about it is so charming. Funny story: I don’t remember this, but I’m told I saw this for the first time as a toddler (or so). And when Pooh ‘s back seam pops open as he exercises, apparently I freaked out. Started sobbing and everything - I thought Winnie the Pooh was really hurt… regardless of how unbothered Pooh himself was about it 😄

This is a collection of 3 shorts from the 1960s the voice of Pooh was also in many other Disney animated films.

the original stuffed animals that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh—including Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet, Kanga, and Tigger—are housed at The New York Public Library. They are on permanent display for free in the Polonsky Exhibition of The New York Public Library's Treasures at the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building on 42nd Street.

Not Just Honey: While Winnie the Pooh ignores everything but the honey, real bears eat the bee larvae and brood (eggs), which are rich in fat and protein

These are such happy memories from my childhood! They used to show these three shorts on The Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights. The shorts were made in 1966 (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree), 1968 (Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day), and 1974 (Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too), and EVERY child knew these stories and songs. Even as a young boy I could appreciate the animation style, and it was always a comfortable escape for me (except for my hatred of Rabbit). Christopher Robin might be attempting a bit of an English accent because the original books were written by Englishman A.A. Milne. He wrote them in the 1920s, inspired by his son Christopher Robin Milne and his stuffed animals. The illustrator was E.H. Shepard, but when Disney bought the rights in 1961, the images of the characters were altered somewhat to make them more defined and, well, "Disneyfied".

Eeyore is my spirit animal. My favorite is the 4th and last Winnie the Pooh short, A Day for Eeyore. It was released as a double feature with The Sword and the Stone in the early 80s.

I just turned 60 yesterday. As soon as you started with the Tigger song, I immediately sang the rest of it, ending with the iconic, “Woohoohoohoooo!” Amazing what can stick in your head!

This movie and the 1997 sequel were my childhood. I watched them in German back then, and as I’m watching this in English, all the German dialogue is coming back to me word for word. Still as funny and charming as it was 25 years ago
