Synopsis
The Baby Bears travel to many different places on their adventures, they will be anywhere they explore.
Plot
After trying and failing to find a home, as usual, while cast onto the streets of a city (Most likely San Francisco), the Baby Bears end up in a local playground in the middle of the night and wish on a star (Because that always works in cartoons, as Baby Grizz explains) that they'd at least have a chance at finding a new home, no matter where in the universe it is! By some twist of fate (Maybe real magic, or maybe just their imaginations, who can say?) the star falls from the sky and fuses with their box, turning it into a magical means of transportation to many worlds, from a village of talking vegetables, to a land where snowsculptures come to life and goodness knows where else in-between.
In each of those worlds and the adventures that come with it, however, the Baby Bears end up finding reasons they do not belong there and are forced to fly their box into the next reality to start over somewhere else, yet no matter what craziness they face, they continue to face it all together like the brothers they are.
While this show is still new and thus there's no telling where they'll end up, it is clear that the magic (Real or Imagined) is bound to end when the bears are big enough to have outgrown the box, so all their adventures until that point are full of child-like whimsy and energy, proving that big things come in small packages and that as long as Baby Grizz, Baby Panda and Baby Ice Bear have each other, they can make themselves at home anywhere... no matter how outlandish and strange... even if it is only temporary.
