Thinking about your little one’s next birthday party? Why not have it somewhere you don’t have to do the work, you don’t have to clean up, and your house stays clean? I have your attention, don’t I? We recently had a party for my 6 year old and her friends along with my teen and her best friend. It wasn’t their birthdays, but we celebrated some fantastic milestones in our family, 8th grade and a Kindergarten graduates at Build-a-Bear Workshop and it was a BLAST!
My girls already love shopping, so when we headed to Valley Faire Shopping Center in Santa Clara to the “happiest place in the mall” it was all smiles! There are some ADORABLE new animals this summer that you are going to love, the Under the Sea collection is bright and colorful and bonus, they come with sea buddies!
The Oodles of Fun Octopus has got to be my personal favorite, it’s extremely soft, the color is so pretty and it has my favorite sand dollar shell as it’s buddy! The girls were over-whelmed with all the fun choices of the new products and the traditional bears. My oldest daughter and her best friend and one other girl chose the Coral Beach Bunny with the starfish buddy and like the Octopus, the material was so ultra soft, “we can use these as pillows they’re so soft!” they said!
When it comes to company parties, Build-a-Bear puts on a magnificent one. You get a leader per 10 girls and ours was Jackie and she was energetic, fun, informative, and kept the girls busy. They had animals on their heads, they chanted when they filled the bears, played games while waiting ever so patiently. I love when they get the special hearts for inside of their animals and rub them on their heads for smarts, own hearts for love, etc! The girls then can give their animal a bath, find clothing for their animal, and even find accessories like iPods that play real music for their new friend!
I’m not sure who had more fun, the Kindergarteners or the girls entering high school next year!
After the party, the girls get their animal’s birth certificate, a box to carry them home in (and color!) and this month they received a special tee and beach towel with a $30 purchase (while supplies last!). The party was fun, organized, exciting, and well worth the time and money, sound fun?
