Would you like to learn how to draw a teddy bear? This easy, step-by-step cartoon drawing guide can help you sketch this iconic toy.

How did teddy bears come to be the one stuffed toy hugged by almost every child? Or the gift you give your girlfriend on Valentine's Day? The story of a U.S. president, a rifle, and a hunting trip might surprise you.

In 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt went on a hunting trip in Mississippi, USA. One of the president's assistants didn't think it proper that the trip end without the president capturing his quarry - a bear. So, this assistant trapped a bear and tied it to a tree.

Roosevelt, however, refused to shoot the bear. He felt it was wrong and unsportsmanlike to shoot an animal that could not escape or defend itself.

A newspaper cartoonist drew a picture of this scene, which inspired a Brooklyn candy shop owner to dedicate a toy bear to the president. He called the toy "Teddy's bear." Soon, stuffed teddy bears were popular with children around the world.
