Valentine's Day and Teddy Bears with a Twist
Valentine's Day and teddy bears have gone hand in hand for a long, long time. They are popular with people of all ages and therefore have still retained their popular status. Here are a few ways you can incorporate teddy bears in to your Valentine's Day celebration this year.
Build a Bear Workshop
If you have a little girl (or boy for that matter) in your life, a trip to the Build a Bear or Teddy Bear Stuffer Workshops in a mall would be the perfect gift for Valentine's Day. At these stores, children (and adults if they want to) get to choose an animal, then they can stuff them, fluff them, sew them, name them and clothe them all in a step by step process so that they have new friend (complete with birth certificate) to take home with them. The fun can continue with lots of accessories and outfits always available and some special Valentine's Day teddy bears on sale as well.
Portrait Studio
You can get some great Valentine's Day teddy bear shots with props available at your local photo studio or you could bring in your own little loved one. Grandparents and other family members will love the studio quality shots of your children and having a prop makes it all the more easy to get natural shots instead of getting the children to just stare in to the camera. They could be hugging a bear (or fighting with their sibling over who gets to hold him) but in effect give you a great Valentine's Day teddy bear photo you can send to all the loved ones on your list.
Perfect Accessory
A cute teddy bear from Hallmark or some other similar store is the perfect little accessory for the box of chocolates or floral arrangement you are planning to give. You could hand pick the teddy bear or get one from the place where your order your gift. Chances are even the oldest recipients will smile when she sees a cute little teddy hanging on to a Valentine's Day gift.
Motif
Some women love the teddy bear motif especially if that is what they call their significant other. Teddy bear motif mugs, bath robes, pajamas or other such items make the perfect Valentine's Day teddy bear gift for people of all ages. If there is a teddy with sentimental value, or if the person is an avid collector of beanie babies, then such gifts will be even more popular.
