The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh made by Walt
Disney Television Animation . It originally aired on

Plot [ ]
In the beginning, we see Tigger , Pooh , and Piglet escaping prison, jumping into Christopher Robin and his train. They then head for a dead end and the dream ends where Christopher Robin's toy train falls down the stairs. A babysitter watching Christopher Robin while his mother is out sends Christopher back to bed. However, Christopher is not sleepy, ands makes four messes and the babysitter, not to mention Christopher's mother, gets mad. Thinking that babysitting is the easiest job, Christopher Robin, Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger try to watch Roo while Kanga 's out, and finds out babysitting is harder than it looks. Roo is eventually found after the gang loses him, and Christopher Robin listens to his babysitter the next time he is sent to bed, as do Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger. When Christopher Robin's babysitter checks on him, she feels proud.

Moral : Babysitting may be more trouble than what you think.
Like Christopher Robin's mom, the babysitter's face is never shown, and is usually only seen from the neck down.
When Christopher Robin accidentally switches on the vacuum cleaner, if viewers look real closely, the vacuum's nozzle is slightly anthropomorphized as it sucks up Pooh, when Tigger accidentally throws it in reverse, and when Christopher finally unplugs it before it reverts to its inanimate state.
This episode would later be referenced in "Owl Feathers ".
The episode title is also an episode of the same name from Dexter's Laboratory , as well as an episode of the same name from Clifford the Big Red Dog .
