Mr. Bear, Fozzie’s father
Mr. Beer is a friendly, middle aged bear, who always wears vests and ties. He is married to Emily Bear and has two sons: Fozzie and Freddie. He learns Fozzie many things about life (‘The Wonderful Wagon’ & ‘Fozzie Bear, Star Helper’), but he was not always present at important moments in Fozzie’s life (‘Fozzie’s Last Lap’.)
Mr. Bear appears in many Muppet Kids books.
Mrs. Bear (Emily Bear), Fozzie’s mother
Mrs. Bear is a younger Emily Bear, and a working mother, who appears in the Muppet Kids books. In ‘Fozzie Bear, Star Helper’, Fozzie notices that his mother is a little cranky since she started working again after the birth of her second child, Freddie. Mrs Bear serves Fozzie a plate of carrots and celery in ‘Fozzie’s Last Lap.’
Mrs. Bear has a great influence on Fozzie, even though she doesn’t appear much in the books. She taught her son to always wash his hands after using the bathroom. In ‘The Muppets Stocking Stuffer Smorgasbord’, Fozzie says that the Christmas sweater he is wearing was knitted by his mother.
She calls herself ‘Emily’ in the latest issue of ‘The Muppet Show Comic Book: Family Reunion.’ Fozzie calls his mother usually ma or mom, while others call her Mrs. Bear or Ms. Bear.
Emily Bear makes her debut in episode 216 of ‘The Muppet Show,’ where she sits in the audience in the Muppet Theatre. Although Fozzie tries hard that night, he sees that his mother has fallen asleep in the audience. She also appears in episode 410 ‘Knees Up Mother Brown’, and she is mentioned in episode 503, standing off-stage during Fozzie’s comedy act.

Kermit the Frog – twin brother
