Each day we are bombarded with scary news. As a matter of fact, listening to the news has a negative effect on your mood. The past months have been filled with childhood violence, sad stories of people losing their homes, uncertain economic times, and high unemployment. It is a challenge to maintain a positive perspective.
This is where the comfort of hugging a teddy bear never goes out of style. Each hug brings us back to caring memories. Each teddy bear hug anchors us in the reality of the warmth of simple moments. I encourage each of you to dust off your teddy bear, put it next to your favorite chair, and keep it handly for that much needed hug.
We hug each of our bears before we send them with special hugs to you!
Best wishes…..from Dr. Teddy Bear………the clinical psychologist in picture teddy bear land!
Families are the center of our lives. We thrive on fun family memories. Families change so quickly with the passage of time. Children are so different at different ages. The years from baby to toddler to teenager to adult fly by with the special wings of time.
It is important to cement those special years in our memories. The photographs that capture the “growing up years” are to be treasured for years. Tennyson and Tully enjoy being the special huggble teddy bear that will proudly display the special picture you select of loving family moments!
Best Wishes!
Dr. Picture Teddy Bear

Families coming together to watch the fireworks create a special energy. The excitement of the lights in the sky remind each of us to cherish some light hearted moments. Each day so many happy moments surround us!
Especially in today’s digital age, take a moment to snap that special picture to capture the excitement. Remember our special huggable bears are always ready to wear your newest picture moment!

Greetings parents!
Summer is always a stressful time for parents. It is a time to keep children entertained and many changes in schedules. It is also a time to cherish. Every child has treasured memories of summer time moments. Remember you can always make the memory more memorable by personalizing a t-shirt with our bears Tennyson and Tully!
We all love to remember our teddy bears from childhood and we add the fun of a special picture. We wish you a wonderful summer and lots of fun!

The challenge for today is to manage the toxic news and find comfort. This is the time to have low key events with close friends. Play a few board games and keep the conversation off the economy. We all need to take a “chill pill” and focus on relationships.
Tully and Tennyson are wonderful, huggable comforts that are personalized to make someone feel special. We are dedicated to helping you “find comfort through hugs”.

Hi from Hug a Memory Teddy Bear land!
It such an upside down world with free floating anxiety swirling around us! This is the time to relish the relationships that nurture us. We often rush about and don’t take the time to connect to our social supports. Take a moment this week-end to call someone or visit someone who adds to your life.
The one thing we cannot purchase is time. Take some time for yourself and someone you care about. I just gave Tennyson an exta hug for some comfort!
Best wishes! Dr. Teddy Bear Diva
Hi-
The world of Teddy bears was busy during the holiday season. It is so much fun to interact with customers and share the memories of their families. Bear hugs are needed more than ever, during this time of stress and uncertainity. We find that more families are expressing personalized wishes that add meaning to the gift. Our prediction for 2009 is more emphasis on meaningful gifts versus splurge gifts.
Best wishes for the New Year!

Teddy bears are a wonderful tool for psychological health. Look around your home and the home of your friends. Almost every home has a teddy bear or a teddy bear figurine. What is so powerful about a teddy bear? Why does even the thought of a teddy bear bring a smile to your face? Teddy bears are cherished, many are collectible, and there are so many types of teddy bears. This is understandable when you realize that there are four powerful psychological effects of teddy bears.
First, teddy bears are the symbol of child-like innocence. They remind of us of being nurtured and cared for by others. Teddy bears are a symbol of the care free moments of childhood when are greatest concerns were the next play time. We all hold on to our “inner child” that still remains with us. No matter what adult responsibilities that we may have, we all need to have moments of escape. Also, there are children in our lives that are still receiving their quota of teddy bear gifts.
Second, teddy bears remind us of a special person who loved us and brought us a teddy bear. Teddy bears remind us of the joy of being loved. Teddy bears are not a sex symbol….they are a love symbol! They remind us that someone loves us and treasures us. The psychological necessities for love and caring are central to human lives. Teddy bears are used by police officers and fire fighters to bring comfort to families who are experiencing difficulties. They are a universal symbol of caring.
Third, Teddy bears are also used as gift to remember special occasions. Therefore, teddy bears are treasured for the memory that they represent. It may be a special boyfriend or girlfriend, or a teddy bear from our youth, or a teddy bear purchased for Mother’s Day. I have a special teddy bear on my bed, given to me by my son on Mother’s Day. Each time I look at the bear, holding a heart, I think of my son and a warm feeling floods my heart. The psychological value of treasured memories is great. Pleasant memories color our world with happy thoughts and bring comfort in difficult times.
The fourth powerful psychological impact is the power of the soft touch. A huggable, warm teddy bear brings the comfort of touch. Touch is a powerful need among human beings. Holding something soft gives us immense psychological comfort.
The ability to hug a soft object provides a seductive combination. Holding a teddy bear is a simple pleasure that provides relief from stress. A few moments with a teddy bear are a simple tool to bring your blood pressure down, put positive endorphins in your body, and provide a moment of peace.
It is amazing to realize that a teddy bear, a unique and special stuffed animal, could impart such comfort. Teddy bears are special. In today’s hectic world, a teddy bear is a proven comfort item with multiple psychological benefits. Hug a teddy bear today!
Tennyson and Tully make some of the cutest huggable memory gifts. Add photos with text to create a memory to last that is as unique as the bears.
