Description:
This iconic song, with music by American composer John Walter Bratton and lyrics by Irish songwriter Jimmy Kennedy, has been a much-loved reminder of the delights of childhood since it first appeared in 1932. Who can hear its catchy melody without images of teddies, picnics and the thought of being tucked up in bed, tired and happy? Who hasn't actually created a teddy bears' picnic, just because of this song? If you haven't, then maybe it's time you did!
