School is back in session for my kids and aside from the assignments and learning, they are simply enjoying their friends.  Summer tends to revolve around family time, so the kids are thrilled to see and play with their special friends ever day again and those friendships grow every year. 

Build-a-Bear Workshop has a new set of bears that are bright, bold, and give off the Friends Count vibe!

With swirly fur that just exudes softness and hugability, the adorable fuschia bear has silver accents on the ears and paws with a BFF print.  The shiny star on the chest gives the bear “star quality” and perfect for sharing with friends!

The Friends Count bears are $20!  My daughter will share this special doll with one of her BFFs to encourage sharing the love of Build-a-Bear just like founder Maxine Clark envisioned.
