A Teddy Bears Picnic 

The celebration around this day hardly has any rules at all. It’s simply meant
to be a day for families to enjoy each other, their stuffed animals and, if
possible, a picnic!

When it comes to interesting reasons to celebrate, this is certainly one of the most unique days! This day was created based on the popular song of the
same name, “The Teddy Bears’ Picnic”.

The lyrics of this clever song begin this way:

"If you go down in the woods today
You’re sure of a big surprise
If you go down in the woods today
You’d better go in disguise!
For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain
Because today’s the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic!

Fun Fact: If you love collecting teddy bears, you’re called an Arctophile — a perfect conversation starter when visiting the shop.
