ELC 40th Birthday Bear was £16, now £4 @ ELC

Here's another little stocking filler for you. This bear was made to mark the 40th Birthday of what we used to call The Early Learning Centre, and it is now reduced from £16 to only £4 and is available online direct from ELC or from Mothercare.

He's a charming big bear at 36cm high (about 14 inches), with embroidered feet and a cute green bow.  He is suitable from birth upwards, which is a big bonus for me as bears that are safe for babies and young toddlers aren't as common as they should be.

He's also called "Edward" which in my mind makes him the best teddy bear ever. Wonderful name.

There's not a huge amount more to say about this gorgeous bear, except that he can be collected for free in stores or delivered to your house for £2.95.

(And if my mother spots this in the shop she will not be able to leave him sitting on the shelf.)
