Did you have a teddy bear as a child ?
Lots of children did but I know not all did.
I did .
My favourite one was called Cuddles. He was blue, red and yellow. I’m sure I still have him ….he will be in Moms loft I think.
He was very much loved and I used to take him to bed with every night.
So, did you have a teddy bear ….have you still got it ?

I don't remember having any store bought teddy bear. Yes, my grandmother had made a few lovely dolls with hand. I remember having a whole family there. My cousins and I would play for hours with that doll family.
. They were beautifully made.

@Traceyjayne Yes, it was precious. I am happy that I made one for my daughters too. They are still there and my daughters cherish them as their childhood memories. My daughters are adults now. My grandkids might play with them in future.

No, I didn't. I don't remember any of my brothers/sisters having one, either.
Pretty had/has several of them that I bought for her over the years and yes, they're packed away in a plastic tote in the garage.
We also have the stuffed animals we were given at a farm sale when she was around 5 years old. Those two are sitting in a chair in the living room. (The lady gave me a blue elephant and gave Pretty a monkey/human baby. We've called it both at different times.) I even wrote about them on myLot although I'm not allowed to post the link to that discussion anymore.

@Traceyjayne GAA posted a warning that they'd be deleting anything with links to our own discussions. They said there was a reason we couldn't "Suggest" our own discussions to people on myLot. (The Suggest button at the bottom of every discussion posted on this site.)

@DaddyEvil I guess by suggesting your own posts you could either generate money they don’t want you to or influence people with your views !

@Traceyjayne No. I have a few stuffed animals that I bought on our trips -- Smokey the Bear, a giraffe, etc. and cousin #2 bought me a stuffed dog to keep me company.
