Build a Bear.

[NannyFerret]

This is the Build a Bear workshop in the centre of Birmingham, where the children (little and big people) can choose and stuff their own bear or other soft toy. They also put a little heart in and get a certificate to go with it

Many cartoon, film and TV charactor toys. 
I may be buying my two youngest granddaughters a Gift vouchers for Christmas so there mum can take them to do one each..I think they will enjoy it.

 

Best viewed large.

Our G'Son went for his 2nd birthday to one here, Tina, just a few weeks back. Haven't actually seen his bear, as yet, but he did get excited while waiting for the 'birth certificate', jumped up and down and split his lip open on thecounter edge, and gave himself a blood nose!!!

 

All of our G'kids have done this over the yeaars and loved the experience.

My Granddaughters are 3 and 8, but even the older one will enjoy it, Kobione.
I think it's nice for all ages. Even I could have been tempted when I saw all of the lovely bears etc. and it's quite reasonable too.

;I don't know Annie. I will ask my daughter-in-law, she will probably know. It would be nice wouldn't it?
