The Opera Singing Bears are plush, cuddly teddy bears that sing beautiful arias from two of the most popular operas “La Traviata” and “Carmen.” Each bear is dressed in a lavish costume to portray its operatic character. The bears’ mouths are synchronized perfectly with the words as they stand and sing these captivating arias, accompanied by a full orchestra. The bears also move their heads and sway to the music as they sing. Each bear sings for approximately 2 minutes twice as long as most singing toys.

These bears were especially designed to be educational for young people and to bring sheer joy to all music lovers. The bears are a perfect way to introduce children to opera and beautiful singing with a lovable toy. Each bear is about 18 inches tall and comes with a stand. Both wear costumes designed by Howard Kaplan, a costume designer for opera companies. Attached to each bear’s wrist, with a silver cord, is a small card with a short description of the opera for which the aria was written. SQUEEZE THE BEARS RIGHT PAW AND THE SINGING BEGINS. These bears will put smiles on the faces of children and adults of all ages! They are perfect gifts for any occasion and with Christmas around the corner it is perfect timing to order them now.
