Has anyone been before? we took the kids for Valentines yesterday, and it was so much fun!!! they pick their bear or other critter, and then stuff it, give it a bath, pick out clothes, shoes, and other accessories for it (optional) and then feel out a birth certificate with the name you chose, they also put a tag inside the bear, so if it ever gets lost, someone that finds it can bring it in to any Build A Bear and they scan it, find the owner and send it back! I highly recommend :) though it was a bit expensive :/
Anyway just wanted to share some picks of our trip there yesterday :)

Freya picking out her bear

She picked the sugar cookie bear :)

DS with his smurf :)

She didn't like waiting in line, LOL

Getting ready to stuff!

Freya stepping on the peddle to stuff her bear.

Freya and Aidyn making a wish on their teddy bears heart :) This was so cute to watch, Freya did all the special things the lady asked her to do with the heart, SUPER cute :D

Her finished bear :) she named her Bear, LOL :)
I'm hoping to do this with my dd when we get pregnant (let her make a stuffie for the new baby and one for her as well) but I'm not sure if she'll be able to do all the things. She'll probably be around two.
We love build a bear. My dd just finished her Hello Kitty collection from them and has tons of other ones. I have the Shamrock one for myself :)

How old is your daughter?
