Teddy Bear History
The history of teddy bears is also quite interesting. Teddy bears get their name from former US President Theodore 'Teddy' Roosevelt, who, in 1902, refused to shoot a tied-up black bear. A political cartoon inspired by this act reached businessman and inventor Morris Mitchom and his wife, Rose. When they saw the cartoon, the couple decided to create a stuffed toy bear, commemorating the former president. Morris Mitchom called it "Teddy's Bear".

Message: The teddy bears can be gifted along with sweet and romantic messages, highlighting what the teddy actually represents.
