“Our desire for positivity fuels today’s focus on personal growth and evolution. We’re craving sunshine and rainbows - even when we’re feeling blue. That’s what The Care Bears offer. We couldn’t be more excited to bring these messages to children and their education just when they need it most.” ~Kristeen Tibbits, Care Bears’ Head of Marketing

Anyone whose born in the 80's definitely watched and loved The Care Bears as they group up. I am one of those who even collected their books, CD, and stickers which I love putting on my notebooks. I am so glad to know that The Care Bears is now on Canva and I am so excited to relive those days of happily having them as decoration and designs now I can send some photos and invitations, templates, and so much more to my family and friends.
“As we continue to prepare for this year’s balik eskwela, we at Canva are excited to share the Care Bear collection to Filipino educators who use Canva for Education in their classes. We hope to spread positivity to young learners, and instill the importance of being in-touch with their emotions and feelings, while also understanding the value of caring for others through a fun learning experience.” ~Yani Hornilla-Donato, Canva Philippines Country Head

Carly Daff, Canva for Education’s Director of Product, said collaborating with such a global and nostalgic brand was a coup for the organization’s core education audience because the Care Bear characters and what they stand for perfectly aligns with Canva’s values.
“So far, 2020 is fast becoming one of the most unsettling years for humanity. Now more than ever, we need to take a proactive stance to ensure our kids are being taught how to recognize and express their emotions, manage stress, as well as learn how to care for themselves and have compassion for others. The loveable Care Bears characters empower teachers to help students address their social and emotional development with characters we all know and love. This all-new collection contains vital resources that can be used in a physical or virtual setting, perfect for encouraging connection and creativity in the classroom.” ~Carly Daff, Canva for Education’s Director of Product

Dr. Vanessa Lapointe, a registered psychologist with a focus on working with children and families, as well as an ambassador for the Care Bears and Canva for Education partnership, explains the importance of social-emotional learning in schools today.
“Social-emotional learning provides educators with an “open portal” to the heart and mind of a child,” said Dr. Lapointe. “This in turn, gives us the ability to shape the growing brain from within in a more meaningful and effective way; it’s an approach that goes a long way towards helping kids become more available to learning. The Care Bears templates are a fun and engaging way to kick off a meaningful conversation with students - it helps break the ice and can be used again and again to check in with them and gain a better understanding of their current state of mind.” ~Dr. Vanessa Lapointe, a registered psychologist with a focus in working with children and families

Introduced in 1982 through consumer products, greeting cards, and later a series of animated television shows and feature films, Care Bears is one of the most popular and endearing children’s properties in the world.
