Build a ..........Spiderman????

First pick out a sound, please don't pick Hannah Montana singing!


Brush and Blow Dry for a really long time!

Making a bear is so tiring........ time to sleep!

Back up! "Polar Bear/Spiderman" that is his name even though he is a Panda Bear needs to go for a ride!

Will had a complete blast building his Panda/Spiderman, who knew they even have Spiderman clothes for the bears. I think the woman that created Build-A-Bear is a genius, why didn't I think of it??????

Did you know that while shopping for Beanie Babies she came up with the concept of Build -A -Bear, she has a very interesting story and the company is still going strong, it surely isn't a fad at all. Every time I walk by a store they have a line out the door! You can read more about her story here. It just shows you that your dream can turn into a multi-million dollar empire.

So tell me how many Build A Bears do your kiddos have?

  1. Actually none. She was too old when this came out. However, I have been several times with my nieces and nephews and I look forward going with my grandchildren. I wish I could think of something like that. Dang.

    Love the pictures by the way. He is precious.

  4. My 8 year old would love to make one....where is the closest to us? I guess I should prepare to make a trip for my littlest one too when he gets old enough. That was so cute with the spiderman.

  8. Zero! But ask me again this summer--I'm thinking going to Build a Bear would be a good summer activity for the boys before they get too old for stuffed animals. I'm guessing mine are gonna pick dogs in police uniforms!

  12. So cute! We have the Batman outfit...and we probably have a dozen of the big animals, and another dozen of the little ones (you could buy them at Target, came in a kit)...slight addiction!

  13. We have one that we made for my daughter while I was pregnant with her. I'd love to take her to do her own one day, she's old enough now at 4, but the money just isnt there right now!

  18. Will looks so cute picking out his build a spiderman :) We have so many at our house, I think the girls think everytime we go to the mall they have to get one.

  19. Kristen I agree, the woman behind Build-A-Bear is a genius!
    We have 4 friends in our home. For my oldest it's puppies all the way. For my youngest it's fluffy cats in pink, pink, pink tutu's.
    (I like going there, I have to confess. I think it's just adorable.)

    Sadly, we have no BABW in our area...my daughter sees commercials and wants to go. I know we'd have fun! We DO have lots of WEBKINZ around here.
