On a cold winter night many animals gather to party in the cave of a sleeping bear, who then awakes and protests that he has missed the food and the fun.

"It's time for Bear to hibernate but he can't sleep, so his friends all band together to help"--

When spring comes, Bear wakes up very hungry and is treated to great food by his friends.

While taking a walk with Mouse, Bear meets many other friends and sees colors everywhere.

When Bear is too sick to play, his animal friends go to his cave to make him soup and tea and keep him company.

Unhappy in his cramped, cold hole, Mortimer Mouse moves into a nativity scene thinking it is the perfect home for him, until he discovers who truly belongs there.

Bear's animal friends come to his rescue when he becomes lost and frightened in the woods.

Hilda Hippo tries other, quieter, activities when her jungle friends are disturbed by her dancing, but nothing else makes her happy until Water Buffalo suggests swimming and she finds a new way to express herself.

As Bear and his friends stroll through the forest, they find different kinds of bird's eggs and leave gifts for the soon-to-be chicks.

Little Pip the penguin comes to terms with the presence of an Egg, which will soon hatch into a little brother or sister.
