Ty Beanie Boo mania is sweeping the UK, and we cannot resist โ the oversized heads, enormous eyes, and bright well-developed characters are just too cute.
But did you know that every Beanie Boo has a birthday โ perfect for celebrating together.
So, whose birthday can you celebrate this month? And why do they have birthdays?
Read on to find out all about it! ย
Why do Ty Beanie Boos have birthdays?
Older fans of Ty soft toys will remember the original Beanie Babies โ floppy bears with just enough filling who took the world by storm in the 1990s.
One of the major selling points of the original Beanie Babies was their personalisation, which included a birthdate and birthday poem in each swingtag.
Fans of Ty loved the idea so much, Ty has simply kept the tradition going with their newer ranges, including the Beanie Boos.
