Teddy Day 2021: Here's Why the Occasion is Celebrated

Frankly speaking, just like cards, chocolates, flowers; teddies never go out of fashion, and still continue to be evergreen. Embodiment of pure, heart-warming love and care, Teddy Day derives its name from the US President Theodore Teddy Roosevelt.

Fun fact: Did you know that it was a New York-based candy store owner called Morris Michtom, who had first officially created the teddy bear!
