There is something wonderful and timeless about a teddy bear. I still have many of my teddy bears from when I was a child, well my daughter has them now. Stuffed Bears can be companions to sleep with, to cuddle with when scared, or even invited guests to a child's tea party.
My oldest two are almost getting past the teddy-bear stage, but they will never be past the need for an extra hug, some extra encouragement, some extra love.
I found these cute bags at a local craft store in the "dollar bin" section. They are perfect as they pull closed and then can easily be slipped over the arm of the bear.
Then I wrote a note for each of my kids, a note telling them how much I love them, things about who they are that make me proud, and letting them know if they ever have a hard day, or a just need a little extra love, they can write me a note back and tie it to the bear and I will find it and respond when they are at school.
They were all so excited and each of them have already written me a note back.
My youngest has mostly drawn me a lot of pictures, but he is so excited when I get them and has even hung them all on my bathroom mirror for me.
One day when my oldest was causing some problems and not really listening; after being up in his room for a while he asked me, "do you still check those bear bags?"
"Of course." I told him.
I then went up to his room (he followed behind me), and found a note in his bag apologizing for not listening.
I love that something so simple, something so timeless as a teddy bear, is helping me connect with my kids just a little more, helping them know that they can always come to me with any problem, anytime they may need something.

Plush bunny rabbits are quickly surpassing teddy bears as the number one plush animal given to newborn babies (and young children in general). And it's no wonder: they are simply too adorable and huggable for words. Famous teddy bears
Now all of a sudden the infant hears the whole lot around him. For some infants this is not an difficulty, however it may be very horrifying for different babies.Veľký plyšový slon
Outside of protected areas, habitat loss is also still an ongoing issue in addition to illegal poaching. To try and save them from further future uncertainty, by 2005, more than 50 panda reserves (which protects 2.5 million acres and more than 60% of the panda population) were created by the Chinese government. panda australia
