    Fun memories to be made!

    I remember going to Build a Bear as a child, and now as an adult, I enjoy taking my kids there. It’s definitely a pricier place, but like others have mentioned, they do run promotions. My favourite part about Build a Bear (other than the kids being able to stuff their own plushie), is that the stuffed animals are of high quality and are realistic in looks to the characters in movies and tv shows. The variety of outfits is good. The only negative thing I can think of, is that there used to be a lot of classic plushes. Now it seems that most are very trendy and licensed (same with clothing). I miss the original products from years ago.
    Also, it would be nice if Canadians could order online without paying an outrageous shipping cost.

    My kids favorite place

    This is my kids favorite place to go. We really don't mind taking them as the quality is incomparable to other stuffed animals and the process is such a fun experience for them. I love that they often have sales like the buy one get one for 10$ so it makes it more affordable. We were able to get 2 dressed bears for 65$. They always have a wide variety of fun and popular characters for my kids to choose from.

    Always Fun

    My daughter loves going to build a bear. Every time is like the first time. The employees are amazing and make it so much fun. The experience is totally worth paying $12 for a teddy bear shirt.

    Never gets old

    I love the whole experience of Build-a-Bear. They made my kids feel like they were creating a new life. There were so many choices I thought I was going to go broke. It is worth going at least once in your lifetime. The animals are of great quality and last a long time.

    Always brings me back.

    This is a great place to take kids. I really appreciate how modern their animal choices are. The often have the plushes that are coming out at the same time a new movie and even have retro plushes and seasonal. The accessories are a lot of fun and I like that you can mix and match with the more stuffed animals that you have

    Go for every birthday

    I took all of my kids to get a birthday bear this year and the staff and experience was wonderful. They all love their new bears and take them to bed every night.

    Build-A-Bear

    I love Build-A-Bear workshop. You get to pick a bear , have it stuffed with a heart. It can be personalised and designed to suit any occasion. Children of all ages love to create their own teddy and adults have the joy of watching their young ones faces light off or joining in on the fun. I have a few bears myself.

    Pricey but Always Worth It

    BAB is pretty pricey. I mean if you only want the stuffed animal without any clothes or accessories you can get them at times for around $20 but what’s the fun in that? I like to save these trips for special occasions like birthday or vacation. My kids recently both got one while we were in Rehoboth Beach and they LOVE them. The whole experience is great for kids. They get to choose a heart and the employees have them kiss the heart and do a little dance and put the heart inside thier animal. You can also choose scented inserts so the animal smells lik something (they cost extra but the smell really does last even through washes) and voice boxes (also extra). Then they can pick from hundreds of clothing combos, including shoes. They can even get beds and wardrobes (although I’ve never gone that extravagant). It really is more than “buying” an animal. It’s a whole experience for the kids and they even get to name them and get a birth certificate for them. My on our beach trip my son got Chase from Paw Patrol complete with outfit, and my daughter got a rainbow lion which she dubbed “sprinkles” and a Wonder Woman costume. They really love them an they are great quality that will
    Last years.
