Winnie the Pooh Day 18 Jan 2026

Before motivational quotes went viral, a small bear with a very large appetite for honey quietly mastered the art of living. He forgot things, got stuck in doorways and called snack time a priority—and somehow, he was right. Today is Winnie the Pooh Day, celebrating the accidental philosopher of the Hundred Acre Wood and marking the birthday of the man who dreamed him up.
