Did you grow up loving The Berenstain Bears, or do you have child who can't get enough of Brother Bear or Sister Bear?  If you answered, "Yes," then I have a must have for you.  Back on May 21st, Kaboom Entertainment released The Berenstain Bears: Golden Brother Edition and The Berenstain Bears: Golden Sister Edition, exclusively to Sam's Club and Walmart.  For only $19.99, you can pick up this wonderful gift set, which includes a DVD with 2 hours of Brother Bear or Sister Bear episodes, along with a 10-inch plush doll.  The DVD and plush bear come in a limited edition package, that is sure to delight any fan of The Berenstain Bears, which have been around for 50 years!

 Sister Bear
"Sister Bear is a spirited, spunky third-grader. Outdoorsy and sports-minded she also loves fairytales, writing and jump rope.
Set in the rolling hills of Bear Country, this animated comedy stars a fun loving family of honey bears whose love, loyalty and humor allow them to overcome any obstacle that finds its way down to their sunny dirt road.
The funny, familiar experiences of this bear family instill timeless life lessons and reflect the traditional community values of country life."

Brother Bear

"Brother Bear loves sports of all kinds, especially soccer. He often acts as protector and stands up for the smaller cubs at school.
Set in the rolling hills of Bear Country, this animated comedy stars a fun loving family of honey bears whose love, loyalty and humor allow them to overcome any obstacle that finds its way down to their sunny dirt road.
The funny, familiar experiences of this bear family instill timeless life lessons and reflect the traditional community values of country life."

Thanks to the folks at Child's Play PR and Kaboom Entertainment, my family was sent both limited edition sets to review.  I was so happy to received two plush bears, as I knew the girls would fight until I had the chance to pick up another one, so they would each have one.  With each DVD having 2 hours on non-stop Brother Bear or Sister bear episodes, we have been having a blast watching each episode, which even the youngest of viewers can follow along and enjoy.  As a parent, I love how each episode instills life lessons, while sharing with viewers about the importance of love, family, loyalty, humor and perseverance.  Whenever Brother Bear or Sister Bear find themselves with an obstacle to overcome, they don't give up, and find a way work through it.  This is truly a wholesome family based animated series, that families can sit together and enjoy watching, and even follow up with an open discussion about what was learned for those with older children.

I was so excited when I received the sample sets, as I have to admit, I really wanted to share my childhood love for The Berenstain Bears with my daughters, as we snuggled up on the couch together to watch.  With the girls and I being sick these past few weeks, this was a great way to keep our minds off of not feeling well, while enjoying this wonderful and truly entertaining animated series.  I really loved seeing the girls get excited about the adventures Brother and Sister Bear went on, and watching them interact with their parents in a country setting.  And, when it came time to choose which plush doll they wanted, it was hard for them to choose, as they loved both characters.  So, the only reasonable thing to do was to take turns with the bears.  :-)  The girls would pass of the bear when they were done with it, or sit together on the couch with the plush bears between the two of them. 


Since receiving the two DVDs, as part of this limited edition set, we have already watched them half a dozen times.  In any given day, I am having Savannah ask to watch at least 1-2 episodes, as she holds her plush bear.  How can I say no, when I, too, find this animated series to be fun to watch? :-)

So, if you are or know someone who is a fan of The Berenstain bears, you will want to head to your local Walmart or Sam's Club  to pick up either The Berenstain Bears: Golden Brother Edition or The Berenstain Bears: Golden Sister Edition, both from Kaboom Entertainment, and retailing for only $19.99.  Usually DVDs and plush bears like this would cost you $19.99, so you are getting an amazing deal with this combo pack, which comes in a cute limited edition package -- ready to give as a gift or enjoy for yourself. :-)
