Build a Bear Workshop

Build a Bear

We were invited a couple of weeks ago to build a bear, Erin was beside herself and had already planned out several outfits for her bear-to- be before we’d even got there. Lovely Yasmin took us through the whole experience which started with a little introduction and the chance to choose an unstuffed animal or bear.

Yasmin and Erin

Off to the stuffing machine and more choices, first how hard or soft to have her chosen rabbit, what type of heart to place inside her, and to voicebox or not to voicebox. Finally after much deliberation Yasmin was allowed to sew her up.

Sewing Up

The shop had hundreds of outfits and accessories to choose from, in fact I wasn’t sure how Erin would choose but I needn’t have worried she knew exactly what she wanted – white summer dress and satin knickers.

It's all coming together!

On to the computer to create a birth certificate and name her rabbit. Erin chose the name Taleeya, I won’t lie it took Yasmin and I a few minutes to figure out how to spell it! So Taleeya the rabbit was born :)

Erin thoroughly enjoyed the experience and was chuffed to show everyone Taleeya!

Taleeya would have cost ?28, so not cheap but nice for a treat. Erin still has ‘Emily’ who we gave her for her 1st Birthday. Thanks to Yasmin for making the experience extra special.
