Abstract: The stuffed child's stool has a typical seat and four legs for the structural members. These are then covered with a cloth material which is stuffed. There may or may not be a back portion attached to the seat for support. A shaped character, such as a bear, with head, partial shoulders and arms extending therefrom is attached around the edge of the stool, and over the back portion if one is included. The arms may or may not be attached around the seat edge. The head and arms which extend partially around the edge appear as a back and arms for the stool. The feet of the character may be formed with the shaped cloth material and stuffing.
