National Winnie-the-Pooh Day 18 Jan 2025

National Winnie-the-Pooh Day

If you find yourself in a sticky situation, surrounded by honey pots and daydreams, you might just be celebrating National Winnie-the-Pooh Day! Today marks the birthday of AA Milne, the creator of the lovable, honey-obsessed bear who taught us that sometimes the best adventures happen when you"re not looking for them. The writer introduced the world to Pooh in 1926, and he quickly became a household name. Milne"s writing was inspired by his own son, Christopher Robin, and his toy bear—a story that began in a small nursery and turned into a global phenomenon.
