[Ad- gifted product] Robin is a huge fan of Care Bears and has had a Tamagotchi Uni that she has played through several times, so when we saw the Care Bears Digital Pet, she very much wanted to play with the purple one called Harmony Bear. There are a few different bear options, which is very fun as the back of these key chains look exactly like the bear itself. The shape itself is the perfect size to hold and display and the actual look of it – like the print – is so cute!
Once you have set the time on your Care Bears Digital Pet, you can start playing and taking care of your pet. Like many similar digital pets, you can feed them, shower them, and let them sleep. There are also a bunch of mini-games, which seem to be specific to the Care Bear that you end up getting, along with Care Points to show how well you are taking care of them. These different symbols on the top and bottom of the screen are pretty easy to read and understand.
Your bear will grow up as time goes on, getting bigger and changing slightly in form, as they have three growth stages. The Care Bear itself does play around on it’s own too, changing and animating on the screen even when you are not interacting with it directly. There is a lot of caring aspects to the Care Bears Digital Pets; you do need to let it nap during the day and feed it healthy! There are two mini-games; a whack a mole where you need to whack a mole and an apple catching game where you need to bounce an apple about until it falls. Robin liked the apple catching game best.
There is a disco ball icon on the bottom of the screen where you can choose what type of dance party you want to do. This is such a fun little animation and brings a lot of joy to Robin. There is also learning that can be done on the Care Bears Digital Pet – it just feels like there are so many different animations and activities to actually do with them.
Your writing is not only informative but also incredibly inspiring. You have a knack for sparking curiosity and encouraging critical thinking. Thank you for being such a positive influence!
I love things that are a little bit old skool as it were. I collected Care Bears as I child, it looks like Robin is really loving this so much!
