beary

Playfully means "very"

Beary is a playful spelling of "very," substituting bear- to create a pun, typically in contexts involving bears or teddy bears: Have a beary nice day!

The word appears on greeting cards, in children's media, and anywhere cuteness is the goal.

It's deliberately corny.
