This cool new piece from cute character brand, Smiling Bear® is really eye catching. Your friends will definitely want to know more about this cheeky blue koala bear who's just arrived on the scene.

The design features Smiling Bear dressed as a life guard. He's wearing cute swimming trunks (affectionately known in Australia as budgie smugglers!) funky swimming goggles and a swimming cap. He's carrying a bright yellow surf board with handles, known as a 'paddle board'. The design also has the words 'Life Saver' in bold lettering, and underneath the Smiling Bear logo.

This design is a celebration of the fact that Smiling Bear comes from Sydney, Australia, a fact he is very proud of. Whether you live in Australia, have been there or even would just really like to go there, this is the perfect design for you. It's cool modern Australiana like you've never seen before, and it's so cute too!

A smile has universal appeal – no matter what your age is, where you live or what language you speak, everybody understands that a smile is a sign of love and happiness. Smiling makes you feel good. Life is definitely better when you smile more, especially when you're thinking of Australia and what a great place it is! Smile More with Smiling Bear.
