- brandy3 169 Comments

Build A Bear Workshop has introduced the Friends Count Collection online and in stores.

The Friends Count collection is cute and furry. I remember when I was a kid and the BFF neckalaces were popular for friends, they would break easy though. Now your child and their best friend can have BFF bears that will last them forever as a sign of friendship.

I have a $20 Build A Bear Gift Card to giveaway to one lucky US reader?

To enter: Tell me which bear you would get from the collection or something else.

Making Time For Family

- brandy3

We have such hectic schedules and when school starts in a few days it’s going to be kaotic. We still try and make family days and go places together when we can.

This month we went to Build A Bear and treated the kids as well as a amusement park and the beach.

We always try to have a blast, when we can’t get out though we try to have a good time indoors with board games and food.  One of my kids favorite dishes to make is Grilled cheese. It gets old every now and then though so we like to spice it up with Hormel Pepperoni or tomato etc.

they love it.

This morning my husband even made a omlette, which is rare for him to cook.  He made it with cheese, ham, and Peloponnese Sweet Peppers. It was so good.  I wish I could of gotten a picture before it was gobbled up.

What do you do for family fun time? Do you stay home or go out?

Build A Bear Workshop has introduced the new Sketchers Twinkle Toes bear and Hot Lights Bears this month

Now you can have Bears to match your shoes! New Twinkle Toes and Hot lights Bear are bright, shiny and full of style.

Just to see the look on their faces once their new best friend is dressed and styled to their liking.   We chose to make the Twinkle Toes Bear and she is so beautiful and soft.  Her ears light up and shine bright and she has big blue eyes.

This is the perfect bear for any little girl, or the Hot Lights Bear for a boy.

Build A Bear Birthday Party

- brandy3 4 Comments

Both of my daughters have their birthdays a month apart, so we usually do a double birthday party, in between their birthdays.

This year we settled on Build A Bear Workshop, my kids absolutely love it there.

A Build A Bear party is easy to schedule online, by phone or in store.   You just add how many kids you would like and set a budget. You can have a party for $10 a child.

We wanted to have 10 kids total, unfortunately we had a lot of cancellations, so we ended up with 7 people. Which was still good, you need at least 6 people for a party.

Our host (Cathy) met with us, and began by introducing herself and making name tags for everyone in the party.

 Next was the parade around the store to the animals to pick one out.

Everyone was able to pick out the animal they wanted.

Everyone sat back in a circle and had to name their bears, our host put the names on tags. It’s easier to make the birth certificates that way, then having a full party take turns on the computers. At this time they also have the guests put their names on a special gift for the birthday child.

Then it was time to pick out your hearts for your animals, and of course do a little exercise with the hearts.

I really have to give our hostess Cathy a big Thank you, our party was a little crazy with the hearts, and she was very nice about cleaning it up.

Next, was a game of hot potato with a mini animal, to see who was going to get to stuff their animal.

then of course the stuffing animals, then you get to wash and pamper your animal.

Then you get to choose outfits, that was the most hard part for the kids I think. They would choose an outfit and then change their mind. The good thing was that they were allowed to change them if they wanted.

Can you tell how excited he is? Cars clothes! LOL

Don’t forget that you can also add sound, shoes and accessories to any bear or party package if you would like.

To round out the end of the party, our host took a picture of everyone and their furry friend, sand happy Birthday and presented the Birthday girls with their special gifts.

With every Build A Bear Workshop party you get

These cute little bears that come with a marker, that all your guests can sign.

A picture

And you also get a code for a free virtual party balloon to play with at BuildABearville.com

Over all the party went really great, and our host was awesome even through a few melt downs.  I have no complaints about the party it was great, my only complaint would be that the store we had the party had a lot of animals and clothes that were out of stock. My daughter really wanted Miss Piggy but it was not available.  My daughter even wants to have her next birthday t Build A Bear Workshop again.

Build A Bear work shop only has a few locations with actual party rooms so there is no eating enjoying cupcakes in the store, and your party host will bundle your gifts in a bag and put them aside for you to open at home.

To reserve your Build A Bear Workshop Party or find out more information visit here. Everything you need to make your party special is on the site, including customizable invitations and Thank you cards.

Celebrate Easter With Build A Bear and Hop

- brandy3 2 Comments

Easter is just right  around the corner and everyone will be cuddling with bunnies and chicks. It’s what Easter is all about, oh and finding eggs too.

The movie Hop came out in theaters last year and is coming to dvd March 23, 2012. Hop is about E.B Bunny who is destined to take over as the Easter bunny, but all he wants to do is rock out on the drums. He goes to Hollywood to peruse his dream.

So when you pick up your copy of Hop for a Easter basket, pick up E.B Bunny from Build A Bear Workshop for your child to cuddle up with while watching the movie.

E.B Bunny is so cute and soft, he is a great addition to any easter basket. His clothes are what really makes him look like the character from the movie without them he just doesn’t seem the same. I received E.B Bunny from Build A Bear Workshop for review and my kids just love him.

My kids have been watching the movie while cuddling with this little guy and they can’t get enough of him.

You can buy Eb Bunny from Build a Bear Workshop for $23.00 and his clothes are available for $10.50
