Care Bears: A Belly Badge for Wonderheart Movie

Released: August 6, 2013

Studio: LionsGate

Running Time: 65 minutes

Join Wonderheart in a magical movie adventure about honesty, friendship and the power of responsibility! In the magical world of Care-a-Lot, Wonderheart wants to join the Cub Bouts, but it’s only for cubs with active Belly Badges. When she resorts to using the wishes from Care `n Share Charms to fake her powers, it leads to disastrous results. Her final wish accidentally lands her in the Moody Mountains in the center of a Stardust Storm! With the help of Grams Bear and her loving Care Bear friends, Wonderheart learns an important lesson about using the Belly Badge Beacon responsibly and discovers the joys of honesty and caring.

While this is not the original Care Bears animated characters, it is still cute and adorable. The characters are so colorfully animated that its hard not to smile at them. I actually like that this was more of a movie than just separate episodes, but it is a short movie at just about an hour. I guess though one hour is a good length for young kids, but my kids wanted more. The Care Bears are all so friendly and polite, and they do show off some great lessons in this movie such as working together, friendship, problem solving and being honest. All the lessons are pretty basic and easy for kids to follow. This is the first “new” Care Bears movie we have and its a great addition to any child’s collection.
