Buddoodles says "A Build-a-Bear Workshop party is guaranteed fun for preschool & grade school-aged children!!!" about Build-A-Bear Workshop Party - Natick, MA

Build-a-Bear Workshop was our choice of location for where our oldest son's 4th birthday was to be held. It was his first birthday party to which his friends from school would be invited. I wanted it to be memorable.

I booked my party online. It was extremely user-friendly. You pick a date, a time, the approximate number of guests, their average age, and a dollar amount you would like to spend on each guest's bear. Then you make a $75 deposit to book the party.

Each party comes with a party leader, a goody bag (with stickers, a Build-a-Bear pin, and coupons for future visits), and an autograph bear that each guest signs and the guest of honour gets to take home as a keepsake. A basic bear costs $10. Then you decide what you want to add (if anything), such as a t-shirt, a sound, or an outfit. We chose a $10 outfit, so our budget was $20 per guest. Since all our guests were 4 year olds, they each had a parent with them who were welcome to purchase any additional accessories...

rockitship says "Simply the best store on the planet." about Uncle Fun - Chicago, IL

Uncle Fun, located on Belmont in Roscoe Village (Chicago), is the greatest toy store on the planet. But really, it's more than toys. Magic tricks, post cards, pop rocks, stuff that makes noise, blinks, drawers full of plastic crap, bobble heads, you name it. If you need a random gift for somebody - from fake plastic vomit to a rubber chicken to a talking Mr. T doll, you can get it here. Most people in Chicago don't even know about this place - bummer for them, it's the greatest place ever!...

Such a great store! Very bright and fun. A very wide selection of toys, most of which have some type of educational value. Friendly and helpful sales associates. There is so much to play with! My new favorite store to buy gifts for all my nieces and nephews!
