Mr Bear is less than enthusiastic when sleepy Mrs Bear suggests that as well as baby, he takes the Grizzle-Bears with him on a picnic. First Fred, Ted and Fuzz don't like his choice of picnic spot, next they find he's brought the toy basket instead of the picnic basket and then his efforts to catch fish end in watery failure. However, the Grizzle-Bears' low opinion of Mr B is dispelled by his prowess at honey hunting. The basic storyline is extended through the telling expressions on the characters' faces and the humorous antics of the woodland animals they encounter.
