  1. That build a bear place is a fun thing to be doing. There was NOT one where we are, but we saw one at Grandma’s place in DC when we were there, but the boys were too old to want one, LOL! Then I saw another one in Canada when visiting there, too. Sheesh, too bad they were not around ‘back in the day’!

    How sweet that you were able to take all your greats there to make their own bears.

  2. I remember that………! I haven’t been to a mall or shopping center in ages – I guess they’re still around – that’s good to know….some things like the fun of building your own bear-buddy ought to NEVER go away.

    Hugs, Pam and Teddy

    1. I am surprised ours is still in business as so many stores in the mall have closed. It was pretty busy the day we went. xo

  3. You are the build a bear auntie! I’ve never participated in one. Looks like fun though.

  4. Ellen I expect you had at least as much fun as TGO, TM and The Boy…
    I was quite excited when I received an invitation to a shower for a baby boy. I knew exactly what I was going to buy. A trip to build a bear. Both parents are runners and track coaches.
    I found the most adorable track suit and running shoes. I didn’t know you would need to name the bear for his birth certificate. The couples last name is Young. so I named him Yogi. The mom broke out in laughter. She asked if I knew that her husband was teasing her about naming the boy Yogi? I did not

    1. I sure did. That was a great idea to make a shower gift. Now you don’t put the name in, it prints out blank. xO

  5. Such a fun thing to do with the little ones.

    Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

  6. That is three great memories, Ellen❤️❤️❤️
    I assisted in one Build-A-Bear with a dear friend and later Built-A-Bear for ME!🧸

  7. What a wonderful memory to get to have this first time experience with the littles each in turn. <3

  8. I haven’t gotten the chance to go, but I hope to someday. It looks like fun and I’m glad you’ve been able to take each child.

  9. Kids (and adults) love that place. What great memories they’ll always have.
