Baby Bear

Porridge trio's youngest

Baby Bear is the smallest of the three bears in the fairy tale "Goldilocks and the Three Bears"—the one whose porridge, chair, and bed are "just right." The term extends to anything sized for the smallest member of a group, or metaphorically to the youngest or smallest person in a family or team: I'm the baby bear of this operation.
