Yogabears

Yogabears are a popular line of plush toys designed for children, introduced by Ty Inc. in 1996. The toys are typically made of soft, plush fabric and feature a bear character with a yoga pose. Each Yogabear comes with a small yoga mat and a set of instructions for various yoga poses. The toys are designed to help children develop flexibility, balance, and mindfulness through yoga. Yogabears have been a staple in children's playrooms and classrooms, promoting physical activity and relaxation. The brand has expanded to include a variety of Yogabear products, such as yoga mats, books, and even a line of clothing. Despite their popularity, Yogabears have faced criticism for promoting yoga as a form of exercise for young children, as well as concerns about the potential for injury from improperly performed poses.
