Winnie the Pooh Day Let’s hear it for the bear this January
There’s a national awareness day for most things, and Winnie the Pooh is one of them! Celebrated on 18th January, it commemorates the birth in 1992 of British author and playwright Alan Alexander Milne, the creator of Pooh and his friends Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore.
The book Winnie the Pooh fi rst appeared in print in 1926 and was followed two years later by The House at Pooh Corner. Though Milne only wrote two Pooh books, his characters have become popular worldwide.
The characters are based on toys owed by Milne’s son, who also appears in the books as his namesake Christopher Robin. They were written in Hatfi eld, East Sussex and locations such as Hundred Acre Wood, Galleon’s Leap and The Enchanted Place are linked with real places in and around nearby Ashdown Forest.
The book contains some wonderful lines that are simple and innocent but also wise: “Weeds are fl owers, too, until you get to know them” “If the person you are talking to doesn’t appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fl uff in his ear”
Though there are no offi cial events to mark Winnie the Pooh Day, here are some ideas for your own celebration: create some Winnie the Pooh artwork, dress up as your favourite character or play Pooh sticks!
