Bebe's Kids is a 1992 animated comedy film directed by Bruce W. Smith and based on a stand-up comedy routine by comedian Robin Harris. The film follows the story of Robin Harris, who is smitten by the beautiful Jamika and agrees to accompany her to a theme park with her friend Bebe and her three children. However, when they arrive, Robin realizes that the children, LaShawn, Kahlil, and Pee Wee, are out of control and wreaking havoc everywhere they go.
Throughout the film, Robin tries to keep the kids in line while dealing with their constant misbehavior. The group encounters a number of obstacles, including a visit to an amusement park, a boat ride, and a trip to a gigantic department store. Along the way, the children do everything they can to make Robin's life miserable, including destroying the amusement park and getting him arrested.
The film's humor is grounded in the outrageousness of the children's antics and the absurd situations that they find themselves in. Despite their misbehavior, however, Robin comes to see that the children are in need of love and care, and he begins to get close to them, especially with LaShawn.
Bebe's Kids was a commercial success, grossing over $19 million at the box office. The film was also notable for being one of the first animated features to feature an African-American cast and a storyline that explores themes of racism and poverty.
