Peter Doodeheefver, who designs the toys, took us around his shop to see how the toys are created.

We visited a sewing （ 縫 紉 ） station. People there were busy sewing some toys together. Later, we saw another station where a woman was painting pieces of a Paddington Bear toy set. Here, we leared how they use clay（黏土）and molds（模具 ）to create toy parts, The molds are painted to look like characters from children's books.

Throughout the toy-creating process, the creators keep in touch with the writers of the books. They need to make sure the toys perfectly match the images the writers describe in their books. Sometimes changing the color of the fabric （ 織 物 ） or the length of the arms can take the toy more accurate. It can be something as simple as making the hole in a doughnut just a little hit bigger or making the eyes look smaller.

Once their toys are created, they send them to a lab for safety tests. At the lab, they make sure all the parts are put together perfectly. For example, they make sure the eyes can't be removed by a baby, or that piece of the toys won't fall off. After the lab says the toys are ready, they can be sold.
