VIDEO: See How Winnie the Pooh & Friends Celebrated Queen Elizabeth’s Birthday!

We can’t help but adore seeing all of our Disney friends in the parks. But, we especially love greeting Winnie the Pooh and his pals!

Winnie the Pooh and friends!

Yet, there’s another special way you can watch the pals from the Hundred Acre Wood celebrating a very special occasion!

Yahoo! has shared that Disney animators brought a new Winnie the Pooh sketch to life in honor of Queen Elizabeth’s 95th birthday! The 45 second clip follows Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, and Christopher Robin as they make their way from the Hundred Acre Wood to Windsor Castle with a pot of honey and 95 balloons.

Winnie the Pooh himself is celebrating his 95th anniversary too as this October marks when the first ever story about the silly old bear and his friends was published. Along with the “Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Adventure” clip for the Queen’s 95th birthday, the Hundred Acre Wood friends have also celebrated Her Majesty’s birthday previously. In 2016, Disney also released the book Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Birthday, which showed the Queen meeting the bear for the first time in honor of her 90th birthday.

Kim Raymond, Winnie the Pooh illustrator, noted how excited she was about the anniversary celebrations. She stated, “It’s always an honour to draw Winnie the Pooh, and even more so when in the company of Her Majesty the Queen. I have drawn Pooh for over 30 years and continue to be inspired by the classic works of E.H. Shepard. Disney wanted to create a touching story befitting of the world’s most loved bear, who for over 95 years, has touched the hearts of millions. I sincerely hope fans enjoy watching Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Adventure as much as I enjoyed creating it.”

Disney executive Tasia Filippatos also said, “Winnie the Pooh stories hold a unique place in the hearts of so many around the world. The themes of friendship and simple pleasures are more relevant than ever 95 years on and we’re delighted to share this new tale to help fans celebrate his milestone birthday.” Here’s the full video!

Since Queen Elizabeth is such a big fan of A.A. Milne’s original series, we’re sure this was quite the gift ahead of her other birthday celebrations taking place soon! And, you can stay tuned with All Ears for the latest Disney entertainment and news!
