Why buy graduation teddy bears?

Teddy bears have always been a popular gift, and this is no different for anyone graduating university. Although they are often associated with children, teddy bears are just as loved by adults, providing them with lots of cuddles and love, no matter what age they are. With a graduation teddy bear, this gift is guaranteed to provide the recipient with an ever-present reminder in the form of a beautiful handmade teddy bear for many years to come.

At Grin & Bear, we offer a wide range of teddy bears, in different designs, including graduation teddy bears. We understand that young adults aren’t always the easiest to shop for, and you certainly can’t go wrong with a wonderful handmade teddy bear. But which teddy bear should you choose? Let us show you some of our favorite teddy bears for your loved one’s graduation gift.

  • Maximillian Teddy Bear

If you want your loved one to experience pure luxury in their graduation teddy bear, Maximillian should be your furry friend of choice. Handmade from sequined tulle in antique gold on a black base, Maximillian is a courageous and flamboyant character who would be a great companion for any recent graduate, especially with his love of cocktails to kick off any party. As well as his partying tendencies, he wants to make a difference in the world, so he would be the perfect teddy bear to sit and have an intelligent conversation with, whilst enjoying a martini or two.

  • Blue Teddy Bear

This reliable and trustworthy teddy bear would make the perfect gift for any recent graduate, as his timeless and classic design is bound to put a smile on anyone’s face. Blue is known for being a very caring little bear, but still has an adventurous side which will bring you out of your comfort zone. However, despite being confident and self-disciplined, Blue does have a vulnerable side and is very sensitive to the needs of others. If you are looking for a way to show someone how much you care about them, gifting our Blue teddy bear is the best way to do that.

  • London Teddy Bear

Is your loved one graduating from a London-based university? If this is the case, our Icon London teddy bear would be the ideal graduation gift. This iconic city has such a classic skyline which can be recognised all over the world, which is why we have incorporated these unique aspects of London into the design. Can you spot some familiar landmarks? From Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and the London buses, our London teddy bear would be the perfect gift for any graduate from this city who is looking for a companion to remind them of some of the best times of their life.  

  • Jack Teddy Bear

Jack would be the perfect reminder of home for anyone who is graduating overseas, as you can’t get more iconic than the Union Jack print! This comical and witty bear has a fun-loving personality, with an abundance of jokes ready to share with his new companion. For any graduate who needs a new friend to share their offence of queue-jumping, or just to enjoy a nice cup of tea with, Jack would be the perfect gift - especially for anyone who loves the British Isles and just needs that little reminder of home.

Graduation teddy bear personalisation options

As much as we love all of these teddy bears, you may be looking for something more personalised and unique to your recipient. If this is the case, why not have a chat with the Grin & Bear team? For an additional £15, you can have the initials of the recipient and a date embroidered on the feet of our teddy bears, which will create a distinctive personal hallmark that cannot be replicated anywhere else.


At Grin & Bear, we also offer bespoke design services for our teddy bears, where we will work with you to design the perfect furry friend with the process involving choosing everything from the fabric’s pattern to the finishing bow.

If you would like to learn more about our graduation teddy bears, Michael would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Feel free to complete the contact form on his website, and he will get back to you as soon as possible.
