Toddy Bears began with the American President `Teddy’ Roosevelt, who was
fond of hunting. One day he found a bear cub which had lost his mother and his
kindness to the cub was noticed by a newspaper cartoonist. Afterwards Teddy
Roosevelt went to a wedding and, at the reception, was given some toy bears. He
was delighted and someone suggested they be called ‘Teddy Bears’, after Teddy
Roosevelt. Soon toymakers were making a great many toy bears for children all
over the world.
