The Heartwarming History of Teddy Bears
Few toys in the world have a story as sweet and timeless as the teddy bear. At Duoai, our plush creations are inspired not only by cuteness, but by the heart behind every hug. Today, let’s take a look at how the beloved teddy bear came to be — and why it still holds a special place in our hearts.
The Origin of the Teddy Bear
In 1902, U.S. President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt was on a hunting trip in Mississippi. After he refused to shoot a captured bear, a political cartoon captured the moment — and inspired a Brooklyn candy shop owner and toymaker named Morris Michtom to create a stuffed bear in his honor. They named it "Teddy’s Bear," and it quickly became a national sensation.
A Symbol of Comfort and Companionship
Over the decades, teddy bears have comforted children, cheered up the sick, and become cherished keepsakes. Whether it’s a baby’s first friend or a collector’s favorite, the teddy bear represents warmth, nostalgia, and unconditional love.
