I have a new found respect for Build-a-Bear after I attended an event as part of the Disney Social Media Mom’s conference in which their Chief Executive Bear, Maxine Clark, spoke. I learned that the company has high standards for customer care and works hard to provide a great shopping experience. I also love that they share their wealth with children’s charities. I was thrilled when I was asked if I’d like to do a giveaway here for a $25 Build-a-Bear Workshop Gift Card!
To let me check out their quality, they sent me a sweet little bunny that arrived in their signature box but as a bonus, it came in a fabulous Easter Basket that included a small package of green grass, as well as a small package of candy. This bunny is ready to make someone smile on Easter!
I checked out their website and found the bunny, their 16 in. Blossom Bunny, retails for a very reasonable $18. Adding the dress and flip flop sandals would make this about $38 (this exact combination is not available online, however, a very similar set is for $38). Additionally, while supplies last, they have a Facebook Fan promotion to add the basket, grass, and candy for FREE when you spend $20 and while supplies last.
The quality of the bunny is superb. This is a bunny that will stand up to some lovin’! The pattern on it is beautiful and it looks great with and without clothes.

My little one is 2 and we haven’t been yet…but I love the philosophy of the company and Maxine! It’s more than a bear (or bunny), it’s an experience for the child!

It’s so much fun picking out cute outfits. Please enter me into the contest for both prizes. Thanks!
They love that they can create their own plush.
My favourite memory is my daughter’s teddy at Build-a-Bear.
The favorite aspect is that they can choose any plush they want to make and personalize it.
My little one likes kissing the red heart that goes inside the bears!

We’ve made Valentine’s day a tradition at Build A Bear. This year my granddaughter got Hello Kitty and my grandson got A Missouri Tiger. We’ll make this a tradition every year. Thanks so much for the offer.
I think it’s fun to pick out all the accessories and then see the bear “filled”. I would be happy with either gift!! Thanks.
My kids both carry the BABs they made with their Aunt when she went away to college.
I would like to enter this for my niece who doesn’t have much. Either would make a wonderful easter gift for her.
Thank you for the chance.

We went to BAB this weekend for the first time. My girls had a blast! They loved getting to help stuff them, picking out a special heart and an outfit. My youngest daughter has already decided that that’s what she’s going to do for her birthday. Thank you!!
I’m entering for the giftcard. My husband once took me to BAB when I had a really bad day…..talk about lifting my spirits! I especially loved picking out the darling little clothes for my new friend.

I love the “adoption” process. How they take the steps of stuffing, adding the heart, the “fluff” bath, then printing out the adoption papers. It’s been 6 years (when my son was 2) since we’ve been there. Chubby-huggy (my daughter) is now old enough to go! If I were so lucky to win, either prize would be nice. Chubby saw the bunny and said “I want that!”
It’s a great way to spend time with the grandchildren

My daughter like the “fluffing” station the best. I’m entering to win the gift card.
My kids love that you can personalize your own “stufftie”!
With no little ones at home anymore, I’ll tell you my fave aspect: the selection! There is something for everyone at Build A Bear. I’d love to win for our granddaughter.
I love that you can put a wish inside your “bear”
Gracie’s favorite part is picking out the clothes and naming the bear at the computer.

Hi!!! My favorite Build-A-Bear Moment was when we went to Embassy Suites Hotel. I made our reservations on-line, they have a Build-A-Bear Package. I hid their Build-A-Bears in the back of the van. When we arrived at Embassy Suites , I gave them their Build-A-Bears and said thought you might want these(they were curious). When we checked in at the desk they gave both girls a Build-A-Bear gift set (it included Embassy Suites Pajamas, Slippers, shower cap, soap). They liked the suprise. I got to take pictures of them around the hotel with their Build-A-Bears. :O)
My girl just loves picking out the perfect outfit for her build-a-bears!
Great Post and Cute Bunny!
My goal has been to take my mom to Build A Bear. They have Harley Davidson Outfits and that would be perfect for her:)

The best thing is that every creation is unique!
We just had our first Build A Bear visit a few months ago, My daughter just turned 3 and for her birthday “Grandma” took her to Build a Bear she picked out the velvet teddy and named it Annie. It was an amazing experience and would love to do it again.

I love that Build-a-Bear has such variety. My daughter loves her cuddly friends and often requests something the average store doesn’t carry for special occassions…I can always find it at BAB!
Thank you.

My favorite memory was my daughter getting her bear picking out her heart to put into the bear the lady stuffing the bear told her to twirl around holding the heart close to hers and make a wish and than kiss the heart and place it in. I wanted to just ball in tears with how precious it all seemed.

My grandson got his new little brother a Build-A-Bear when he was born!
Unfortunately I’ve never been to the BAB store. But I remember seeing it in this one mall we visited in New York and I thought it was such a pretty and adorable shop.

My favorite BAB memory was taking my son to BAB right after my daughter was born. He got to make a monkey for himself and a bear for her. She is 16 month’s old and he still talks about making a bear for her when she “got borned”
My daughter loves all of the bears at BAB. I havent found one thing she likes more than the other..well other than just shopping…she wants it all. lol She is a shopper in training at 3.

Making a wish and putting the heart inside the rabbit is my favorite memory–what a cute face she made
My daughter went to Build-A-Bear with a friend. They had such a good time choosing the outfits.
My daughter has been begging to go and get the Jonas Bear. She would be so excited if we won this!
LOve the bunny!I like the build a bear stores because thye are sooo kid friendly and you get to watch a kid bring their new best friend to life for the first time!
My daughter is almost 12 now, but when she was much younger she absolutely loved snuggling with her BAB creations.

My favorite aspect of Build a Bear is being able to chose which animal I want and customize it with sound and clothing accesories. I can take both my son and daughter to Build a Bear and they each get a stuffed animal that they chose and created!

My poor little 2 year old grandson was coming down with an ear infection and was just returning from the doctor. He wanted so bad to stop by build a bear..his favorite place. The poor thing got sick while in the store and the employees were just super nice about it even though he was scared. He ended up getting a bear that he has not parted with since.
