We all know one of the most popular gifts for kids are stuffed animals. In our house the most popular stuffed animals are Build-a-Bear furry friends. Between the 3 kids we have around 20 friends that include Elmo, Cookie Monster, 2 bunnies, a monkey (named Chili Dog), a bunch of bears and several dogs.
Build-a-Bear started with the simple idea of “I can do that”. Maxine Clark didn’t invent the stuffed animal she made them better. By allowing guests to choose exactly what they want: animal, sound, huggability, outfit and name they are ensured they are completely satisfied with their final stuffed friend. The first retail store opened in 1997 and to date there are over 400 stores worldwide. Along with the retail sites there is an award winning web site, BuildaBear.com where friends can be purchased and customized and Build-a-Parties can be scheduled and an interactive online world called BuildaBearville.com. This is where guests can continue the fun from the store at home by bringing the furry friend to life to play games, purchase clothing and furniture and trade items with other citizens of the online community.
Just in time for her birthday tomorrow Shae was sent an adorable Curly Bear with plaid skirt and summer tee and GORGEOUS silver flip flops. Shae absolutely loves the shoes! The bear has been named her Sam after Shae’s favorite iCarly character and has been sleeping with her and sharing her blanket with her new friend.
