Today is National Winnie the Pooh Day because it’s also A.A. Milne’s birthday. I was thinking of what to post for it since I remember watching the Disney movie of Pooh Bear a lot as a kid. I even had a 100 Acre Wood game on the computer way back in the 1980’s, which involved finding missing items. No moving graphics and totally old school compared to today. That made me think of noting my favorite as a kid and the one I relate to more as an adult:
Kid– Tigger because I was always bouncing around and happy. I mean, most kids loved Tigger with his high energy and song.
Adult– Eeyore because he’s not that happy, but still does stuff and socializes. He finds moments to be happy while not letting it go too far. Eeyore strikes me as a pessimist with anxiety and some depression, but he’s not letting it destroy him.
So, who is your favorite Winnie the Pooh character?
