A cosy knitted Christmas jumper for kids, with five raised 3D teddy bear appliques wearing bobble hats on a plain red background.
This jumper keeps things simple, with a plain red background and no printed pattern at all. Instead, five soft, raised teddy bear faces are scattered across the front, each wearing a small red bobble hat with a white pom-pom.
It comes in a soft cotton and polyester blend, built for everyday wear through the colder months rather than a single outing. It is sized from 1 to 10 years, one of the widest size ranges in our range, and works equally well for boys and girls.
It pairs easily with jeans, trousers or leggings, so there is no need to plan a whole outfit around it. Pull it on over a t-shirt and it is ready to go.
About the Design
Five separate teddy bear faces sit across the front of the jumper, each made from a soft, raised chenille-style fabric rather than a flat knitted print. Every bear wears its own small knitted bobble hat in red, topped with a white pom-pom, giving each one a slightly individual, handmade feel. The bears are placed at different heights and positions rather than in a straight row, giving the design some natural movement.
Aside from the bear appliques, the rest of the jumper is a plain, unpatterned red knit, keeping the focus entirely on the bears themselves. The neckline, cuffs and hem are all ribbed in matching red.
It is a classic crew neck with long sleeves, giving full coverage for outdoor school runs and colder days, while still being easy to layer a coat over.
Perfect for Christmas Jumper Day
Christmas Jumper Day is a well-known UK tradition where schools, workplaces and families wear their most festive jumper for the day, often alongside a small charity donation. The official date is set each year by Save the Children, usually in early to mid-December, though many schools and workplaces choose their own date to suit their calendar.
The raised teddy bear appliques give this jumper plenty of character without needing a busy print, making it an easy, tactile choice for the day itself.
Beyond Christmas Jumper Day, it also works well for school parties, family gatherings, Christmas Eve, and general December wear.

Size Guide
Please check your child's measurements against the chart below rather than relying on age alone, since children vary in height and build at every age. If your child is between sizes, sizing up is usually the safer choice for a jumper they can keep wearing through the season.

| 2 Years | 36 | 54 |
| 3 Years | 38 | 60 |

| 9-10 Years | 51 | 86 |
A 1 Year size is also available. Please allow plus or minus 3 cm tolerance due to manual measurement. Colours may vary slightly depending on screen settings. 1 inch equals 2.54 cm.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this jumper suitable for both boys and girls?
Yes, the design is unisex and suits both boys and girls across the 1 to 10 years age range.
Is this the same as your other bear design jumper?
No. Our other bear jumper has a flat knitted row of bear faces as part of a larger Fair Isle pattern with Christmas trees and a gradient hem. This jumper has five raised, 3D bear appliques scattered across a plain red background, with no other pattern.
How do I know which size to pick, especially for older children?
Check your child's height and chest against the size guide above rather than relying on age alone, since children of the same age can vary quite a bit in size. The 7-8 years and 9-10 years sizes are combined bands, so it is worth checking the specific measurements if your child is at the edge of an age group.
What is Christmas Jumper Day and will this arrive in time?
Christmas Jumper Day is a well-known UK tradition where schools and workplaces wear festive jumpers, often alongside a charity donation. The official date is set each year by Save the Children, usually in early to mid-December. UK delivery typically takes 3 to 10 working days, so we recommend ordering with plenty of time to spare, particularly during the busy run-up to December.
How should this jumper be washed?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, ideally inside out to help protect the bear appliques. Avoid bleach and tumble drying, and reshape the jumper while damp before laying it flat to dry.
