Picking the right teddy bear can be a hard decision.  After all, there are  a lot of bears without homes out there.

Whether you are searching for the perfect first teddy bear or the ideal replacement teddy bear, this holiday season is a great money-saving time to get children of age and at heart a long-lasting teddy bear from Build-A-Bear Workshop.

How do you know you have found the right bear?

Something in your heart just knows when you’ve found the perfect new stuffed companion.

Have you ever visited Build-A-Bear Workshop?  Maybe you helped your child put a beautiful red heart into the body of their new furry buddy before it was stuffed.

Build-A-Bear stuffed animals are adorable and personalized.  Pick from Hello Kitty, The Grinch, a special gift for baby’s first Christmas, bunnies, wild animals, mini furry friends, and more.

You can help with the making of your child’s special teddy bear, the naming, the outfitting, and the loving.  The entire experience of picking out a unique bear is a one-of-a-kind adventure at Build-A-Bear Workshop.

Ladies, I have to confess, I know where the corporate headquarters of Build-A-Bear is located.  I’ll give you two hints.  It’s in one of the states that has three Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park locations and it’s roughly in the middle of the United States.  Yes, St. Louis for all you geography buffs.  I actually got to visit the World Bearquarters about a month ago for a training.  It was amazing.  And not only do employees get to bring their dogs to work, the company was founded by a woman, too!
