Build-A-Bear Workshop

We absolutely love to go to Build-a Bear. This is a wonderful place to bring kids. They get to come into the store and pick out any unstuffed plush animal that they want, and they have a wide range to choose from, and then buil it just they way they want it, name it, and take it home. They start out stuffing it and then they pick out the clothes for it. After that, they name it and they are ready to go. The employees really have to get in to it with the kids and make it a special experience. I have only had one bad experience with one employee, as far as having an attitude, but I guess we all get old and grumpy one day. Your kids will absolutely love it, but don't forget the plastic cause you're gonna need it! If you get a premium animal and an outfit (with shoes of course), you're gonna spend close to $50! However, you can go with the least expensive bear, outfit and shoes, and still get out for about $25. I was addicted after my first visit! They have punch cards so you can accumulate free merchandise after spending so much money in there. They also do Birthday Parties!

I had a boyfriend build a bear for me once, and i must say it was the best gift ever. You get to put a heart in he besr when you build it, and he included a note. i haven't cut the bear open to read it, but he told me what it said. A build a bear is one of the sweetest gifts ever.

Building a bear can also be fun for kids, there are always tons of them in there...and its reasonably priced.

If you have small children...you HAVE to take them to build a bear. build a bear lets you customize your very own teddy bear complete with its own heart, and purchase clthing to make your bear unique to you. Perfect for young children, to make that gift taht they'll treasure for the lifetime.

This is a great store to make your own bear or whatever animal they have there with you kids. We went to make a bear for our little girl when she was a baby. You're able to build what you want and stuff it, dress it, and give it a name. The staff was very friendly willing to help out, and the store was very clean. The store is a bit pricey though, but if you don't mind that, they could be great gifts.
