Winnie the Pooh is a Disney character that can not get a story wrong. His ability to make the audience giggle with joy over some of the silliest things is a powerful trait that some other characters don't seem to have enough of. The story of this short is quite simple. Pooh and his friends make a wish list with Christopher Robin to send to Santa. After making up the list, Pooh realizes he didn't put in anything for himself.
Then on top of that, he notices that it's Christmas Eve once he starts adding his wish in. In a rush, he sends the letter on its way, only to have the winds change on him and the letter never sent. When he discovers this, he decides to take it into his own hands to personally deliver his friends their wanted gifts. He does this by dressing up as Santa and doing all kinds of goofy things.
Some of the gifts Pooh brings to his friends are also very funny. All of which the audience gets great reactions from Rabbit, Eeyore and Tigger. Not to mention that Piglet is his feeble solo reindeer. The musical score by Steve Nelson was cute and a good listening experience as well. Still can't give the special a full score because it is not an original feature. Plus it was only 25 minutes to boot.
It's an adorable little holiday special for any Winnie the Pooh lover. Just don't expect a real in-depth story.

I've seen dozens of Christmas specials and only two of them warm my heart and make me think of that excited feeling I got as a child. One is a Charlie Brown Christmas. The other is Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too. Now the reason that this special is my favorite is simply because I'm a bigger Pooh fan than a Peanuts fan. But there's also a reason this special is such a classic. Most specials are pretty clear in teaching that Christmas isn't about what we get but what we give or who we spend it with, I think Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too teaches that message the best way. In usual Pooh fashion, it doesn't have to stop the story to explain why Christmas is better with loved ones. It simply embeds the message in the very sweet story. Pooh and his friends are some of the best role models when it comes to friendship and caring for one another despite their differences. Children can get a lot out of this special and for nostalgic adults, it may just bring a tear to your eye.
I always thought that this was a fun story that was enjoyable to see every year. Simple things can be nice. Pooh goofs up as usual and we get a funny story of him trying to set things right. It's a great story that anyone as young as two can watch. We get to see all of the important characters in the Winnie the Pooh world. All of them help make this special the great thing that it is. I've always loved Winnie the Pooh and I don't see why anyone wouldn't enjoy this special. I just hope that you can find a way to watch it. Even as one grows old, they would still probably like this special. Everything about it is enjoyable and I recommend it to everyone on this site.
This will be to anyone who's seen it a Christmas classic. It's not my favourite Christmas special, but it is sweet, charming and memorable.
The animation is lovely and so is the music. The voice cast enthusiastically bring their likable characters to life, Tigger never fails to crack me up.
There are two stories, one when Pooh tries to get his letter to Santa Claus, and the other showing Piglet's struggles with ice skating. The latter is a tad predictable, but is so sweet and well meaning that all is forgiven.
Overall, very sweet and charming, and perfect for kids and adults alike. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too! may not be *the* best Christmas special out there but it's certainly a Christmas classic. There are two segments to the program, one (my favorite) were Pooh mistakenly believes the letter he sent to Santa Claus doesn't get delivered. So, Pooh dresses up as Saint Nick, throws together some "presents" and try's to deliver them. The turn out is quite hilarious, with Tigger delivering some of the best lines. It's one of the best "New Pooh's" that have been made. The second segment has somewhat of a Dumbo storyline. Piglet believes he can't ice skate, but when he retrieves the "Magic Earmuffs" he can skate perfectly fine. Only when Piglet loses his earmuffs, disaster strikes. Everything turns out fine, and even though it's storyline is a little more predicable than the first, it's still a lot of fun to watch. Even though it isn't "A Charlie Brown Christmas" or "Rudolf the Red Nosed Raindeer" it's still wonderful, and I strongly recommend you seeing it!
