Almost. Actually, you are right in a way when you say that they
play _with_ Eeyore.
Pooh was playing with Piglet, Rabbit and Roo when suddenly a big, grey
stick came floating. Upon closer inspection they found out that it was
Eeyore that came down the stream. He had been bounced into by a very
bouncy Tigger.
The story is called "In which Pooh invents a New Game and Eeyore joins in"
and it's highly amusing.
Sorry for being slightly off-topic :-)
