So, you are a teddy bear connoisseur and you just can't get enough of the teddy bear lifestyle, right? You have five; six maybe even twenty of the little guys lying around the house in variety of cute and comfortable poses. There's probably one on your bed, maybe a few in a guest room, definitely a bear or two in the living room. Its ok - all of the true lovers of teddy bears have entire packs of these adorable little creatures. But, if you have your share of them and know all kinds of fun trivia about them, what else is there to do? Well, as one teddy bear lover to another we would say checking out the teddy bear museums of the world is probably a great next step!
Teddy Bear museums? Yes. There are plenty of them. From California to New York and everywhere in between, there are hallowed halls that honor the great teddy bear and give them the dignified status that their cute little faces deserve! The high popularity and value of teddy bears is reflected in their international museum presence as well.
If you have never been, we highly recommend going! Bring a friend and make a day of it. If you want more information about any of these locations, please let us know. Chances are, we're been there.
Most of all enjoy the exhibit! There are lots of cute and historic teddy bears to see!
