A teddy bear, or simply a teddy, is a stuffed toy in the form of a bear. It was developed apparently simultaneously by the toymakers Richard Steiff in Germany and Morris Michtom in the United States in the first decade of the 20th century. The teddy bear, named after the 26th president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, became a popular children's toy, and it has been celebrated in story, song, and film. Since the creation of the first teddy bears (which sought to imitate the form of real bear cubs), "teddies" have greatly varied in form, style, color, and material.
