There is something highly nostalgic about this time of the year.

Might it be the way the lights twinkle under the night sky. The aroma of freshly made treats, and a warm cup of hot chocolate. The timeless tales we pull out exclusively at the end of each year. Or perhaps it is something we do not see, or can even try and pin point.

No matter how you look at things, there is something about this time of year that some simply might call magical. Regardless of what you are celebrating, we instinctively flash back to days prolonged. Memories we shared with the people we love and traditions we continue year after year. And despite how much or how little things do change as the years go by. There is always that promise that somethings will remain timeless. There will always be those characters we have grown attached to that always emerge. Perhaps at time when we need them the most.

An example of such characters are none other than the Care Bears.

What had started out as greeting cards back in the 1980s has grown into a massive brand and staple. No matter what age and where someone comes from they are very likely familiar with the famous multi-coloured teddy bears by some means. From toys, clothing, books, series and oh so much more.  The world that is Care Bears is large, vibrant and –goes without saying- adorable.

And as much as everyone loves their share of sweet treats. It is worth shaking up the slot of sweetness this holiday season with the likes of the Care Bears.
