Where It All Started Teddy Bear History > Where it all started... The history of what we know today as the Teddy Bear begins in Germany, in late October 1902, where Richard Steiff, a toy designer working for the family firm in Giengen, in search of ideas for new toys and went to see a touring American circus. Among the performing animals he saw there was a troupe of bears.
The teddy bear is named after U.S. President Theodore âTeddy Roosevelt. In 1902, President Roosevelt participated in a bear-hunting trip in Mississippi. While hunting, Roosevelt declared the behavior of the other hunters â unsportsmanlike after he refused to kill a bear they had captured. As news of the hunting trip spread, many newspapers around the country featured political cartoons starring âTeddy and âthe bear.
