Care Bears are a group of funny, colorful bears, each with a special way of caring and a belly badge, which unleashes that bear's special caring power. The bears use their caring hearts and their belly badges to help each other and to thwart the evil plots of Grizzle, a bad bear with his own flying lair. Each Care Bears episode is designed to foster children's "emotional intelligence," defined by psychologist Daniel Goleman and other researchers as skill in five areas: knowing one's emotions; managing one's emotions; motivating oneself; recognizing emotions in others; and handling relationships. This program is specifically designed to further the educational and informational needs of children, has educating and informing children as a significant purpose, and otherwise meets the definition of Core Programming as specified in the Commission's rules.

In this series, Strawberry Shortcake, a curious, self-confident leader, narrates stories of her and her friends' adventures in the richly-imagined world of Strawberry Land. Using her many positive qualities, Strawberry helps her friends, who share her values but not necessarily her ability to take a broader view, to see beyond their own self-interest. The themes of the stories are designed to have particular relevance for young viewers, focusing on such issues as friendship, fear, self-confidence, sportsmanship, trust and shyness. The pro-social messages flow naturally from the narrative, as the characters experience concrete (positive and negative) consequences of their actions. This program is specifically designed to further the educational and informational needs of children, has educating and informing children as a significant purpose, and otherwise meets the definition of Core Programming as specified in the Commission's rules.
