Our Love For Those Wonderful Teddy Bears (By Deb Allen)
Teddy bears have been around for a long time. In reality it has been well over 100 years since we came to know teddy
bears. The beauty of it is that teddy bears have come in all shapes and sizes, various colors and personalities. They have
become a staple of childhood toys and they hold a spot in all of our hearts.

Books have been written about various teddy bears and stories have been told. Some teddy bears have even made it onto the
movie and TV screen.
Winnie the Pooh Bear is infamous for his many adventures and his friends. Winnie, along with Christopher Robin, Rabbit,
Tigger, Owl, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, and Roo live a very interesting life in the hundred acre wood.
We certainly would not want to forget Paddington Bear. This adorable little teddy bear comes from darkest Peru but now
lives with Brown family at 32 Windsor Gardens. Paddington is very intelligent and has set opinions about what is right and
what is wrong, and he is happy to tell you about his views. He is known for saying, "Things happen to me. I'm that sort of
bear." This is a feeling that most of us can relate to. Paddington is also fond of saying, "It just wouldn't work", which is
adorable in a teddy bear but not so much in a human.

message and a lesson to teach us about how we should conduct our lives. They come in various colors and sizes and each Care
Bear has a personal motif on their tummies and a personal motto they dedicate their lives to. These bears have starred in
their own movies and TV series.
There is a comic strip in a London newspaper about a mischievous teddy bear named Rupert. The comic strips have even been
compiled to form books, called Annuals.

Not only have many teddy bears been featured in animated series and movies but several have had poetry written about them.
With the many TV stations designed for children teddy bears are almost always in the spotlight.
Yogi and Boo-Boo have been in our lives for a long, long time. And we would not want to forget about Smokey as we warned
us about forest fires.
But perhaps the teddy bears that deserve the most recognition are those that live with us. They can bring comfort to a
sick or scared child and they can bring a smile to our day. If you do not have a special teddy bear in your life you are
missing out on a comforting friend that wants nothing more than to see you happy.
