Christmas will soon be upon us, which means it is time to start thinking about gifts for your loved ones. No matter whether they are young or old, here at Grin & Bear we truly believe that teddy bears are the perfect present for anyone during the festive season. Everyone loves them, so we are certain that the recipient is guaranteed to fall in love with their new furry friend. The festive season comes only once a year, so we have put together some points to highlight why a Christmas teddy bear is the perfect gift for this year.
How Teddy Bears can replace human touch in a pandemic
A global study called The Touch Test conducted just before lockdown revealed that the positive attitudes towards touch are linked to a greater sense of wellbeing and lower sense of loneliness. And many people have revealed that one of the things they have missed most during lockdown is the touch and hugs of a loved one whether a family member, partner or friend. For people living alone or forced to self-isolate, a cuddle with a comforting teddy bear may be just the thing to ease the pain of separation from loved ones, and even more so at Christmas time.
Teddy bears are the perfect companion
Regardless of a pandemic causing more of us to be alone, we all need a cuddly companion from time to time, and you can’t get a better one than a gorgeous handmade teddy bear. When we are feeling low, a good cuddle from a teddy bear will always make us feel more at ease, especially at night, as so many of us still hold onto a teddy bear to help us drift off to sleep. Just the feeling of holding a teddy bear can bring such a sense of happiness, they are the perfect gift to cheer anyone up - especially at Christmas.
Teddy Bears can be personalised
One of the most wonderful aspects of buying a teddy bear as a Christmas gift is the fact they can be personalised for the recipient if you go to a team of specialists. Here at Grin & Bear, we are pleased to be able to offer a wide range of teddy bear designs for our clients, from our Classic, Liberty, Icon and Luxury Collections. However, we also offer a completely bespoke experience for clients, considering all of their specific requirements for the intended recipient before helping them to choose everything from the fabric pattern we use, to the intricate embroidery.
We are here to take your own personal vision and make this a reality, using our specialist skills and craftsmanship. At Grin & Bear, we use traditional methods, working on sewing machines to make the bears, where each one is hand-stitched and embroidered by a specialist artisan team - bringing your vision to life in the form of a loveable, cuddly teddy bear.
A long-lasting, meaningful Christmas gift
Compared to many other gifts received, a Christmas teddy bear is such a long-lasting gift which is often passed down through countless generations. It is not only children that enjoy the benefits of teddy bears, as they are a wonderful addition to adult lives too and in particular for the elderly who live alone or in care homes. A gift like chocolates only lasts a few moments, but a teddy bear is a keepsake for years to come reminding the recipient of the loved one who gave it to them- making it such a special gift this Christmas.
Teddy Bear gifts as an expression of love
As we have mentioned a few times, teddy bears are perfect for anyone - no matter their relation to you or their age. Buying a teddy bear for a special person in your life this Christmas is the best way to truly express how much you love them, as they can really make a difference to people’s lives. For example, if you were to buy a teddy bear for a child, this may allow them to express emotions and feelings they cannot otherwise do with adults. From an adult’s point of view, something as touching and comforting as a teddy bear can work wonders for anxiety and depression – and is known to be a good gift for those suffering from dementia.
