Clumsy Mr. Bean, a child in a man’s body, had no one but Teddy as his best friend, whom he takes to the pet shows, holidays, doctor — and what not! They even sleep and read a bedtime story together. Isn't it an ideal relationship with a button-eyed, knitted-brown teddy with sausage-shaped limbs? Yeah, simply adorable.

Not only movies thrust unique themes of endearing relationships with toys, but so does reality. They're more than props. More than just a prize which a hero wins to impress a heroine. What are they, then? They are comfort, joy, and companion to many and, for me, a necessity.

I have been attached to stuffed toys forever — even before I knew I needed them. I can still spark up a memory of myself as a little girl in a dress, with a lollipop in the mouth, squishing a giant teddy beneath my shoulder. Over time, my huge white teddy turned into my necessity.

I think we all, as a child, hold a hidden urge to take care of something smaller than us. When the world is out there, commanding us to follow the rules, we find ourselves in authority when catering to these stuffed toys.
