In 1991, director Jamie Mitchell gathered Christopher Robin and his friends from the Hundred Acre Woods together for a holiday special called Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too. Christopher Robin pens a letter to Santa, asking for gifts for everyone but Pooh Bear.  When Pooh and Piglet track down the letter to amend it. They bring the letter back to the Hundred Acre Woods, and the gang start getting greedy with their Christmas wishes. Pooh sends the letter off into the wind again, but it’s too late. It follows him home.

Despaired that the letter isn’t going to reach Santa Claus, it’s up to Pooh and Piglet to save Christmas and make their friends’ holiday wishes come true.  They piece together make-shift versions of the gifts everyone asked for and set out in disguise: Pooh as Santa and Piglet as a reindeer.

After the duo deliver their handmade gifts, which easily fall apart upon use, the gang corner Santa-Pooh and when Piglet stumbles, exposes their plot.

Pooh feels guilty about failing them all, and goes off on his own to try to hand deliver the letter to Santa Claus. During his travels, the wind carries the letter away, and Pooh returns empty-handed. While he was gone, everyone realized their folly and embraces their friend.

As per usual in the Hundred Acre Woods, Christopher Robin sweeps in to save the day, arriving on Christmas with the gifts everyone asked for and celebrating with his friends.

Since its release in 1991, Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too has become a treasured family favorite. Despite the ABC Family network cutting two scenes from the original cartoon in 2008, gathering around the television with hot cocoa and Disney’s most cuddly bear is an absolute must for drawing children and adults alike together during the holiday season.
