The Cinnamon Bear story focused on Judy and Jimmy Barton who go to the enchanted world of Maybeland to recover their missing Silver Star that belongs on their Christmas tree. Helping on the search is the Cinnamon Bear, a stuffed bear with shoe-button eyes and a green ribbon around his neck. They meet other memorable characters during their quest, including the Crazy Quilt Dragon (who repeatedly tries to take the star for himself), the Wintergreen Witch, Fe Fo the Giant and Santa Claus.

The Cinnamon Bear is an old-time radio program produced by Transco. The series was specifically designed to be listened to six days a week between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Jonathan Thomas and His Christmas on the Moon follows the bed-time story of Jonathan Thomas. The series played daily in 1938 between Thanksgiving and Christmas. With the help of his teddy bear and man on the moon, Jonathan sets out to rescue kidnapped Santa Claus.
