Build-A-Bear have asked us to find 150 Mumsnetters with children aged 4-7 to visit their local Build-A-Bear workshop in order to trial their bear-building process (you can find their list of stores here). All participants will receive a £50 e-voucher to take to their local store to select and build a stuffed toy from their extensive collection along with clothes, shoes, sounds and scents.

Here’s what Build-A-Bear have to say: “CeleBEARate Easter with Build-A-Bear! From birthdays and holidays to good behaviour or an A+ at school, there are so many moments to #celeBEARate with a new furry friend from Build-A-Bear Workshop! Help us #celeBEARate Easter this year.

As we approach the Easter holiday and half term break, parents are always looking for fun, unique and personalized activities and traditions for the family. Bring your kids to Build-A-Bear Workshop to share a fun, heart-filled experience. Document your experience in photos and let us know about your experience with your kids and what made it memorable and meaningful.”

Selected Mumsnetters will be required to leave feedback on a thread on Mumsnet and also fill out a short survey. All testers that do so will be entered into a prize draw to win a £300 voucher of their choice (from a list). We’d also love testers to share photos of their DC building their bear on the thread and find out the story behind the bear and outfit. So whether your DC would like to build themselves a new bear, monkey, unicorn or rainbow confetti leopard signup here to take part.

Thanks and good luck!

Oh WOW. I’d completely forgotten I’d signed up for this - and assumed I wouldn’t get picked anyway - until I saw the email in my inbox! Thank you so much Mumsnet and Build-a-Bear, I’m thrilled and my daughter will be too. What an amazing opportunity, I can’t wait for us to go Smile

Got the voucher a little while ago, thank you for the opportunity. My DD will love it.

everybodysang · 21/03/2018 22:52

Just got an email too - DD is just recovering from a very nasty illness and has been very good about taking her (awful) meds so this will be a wonderful treat for her to celebrate finishing them. Thank you.

bella2bella · 21/03/2018 22:56

We got one this evening too, my children will be delighted and I'm excited too!

captainjacksparrow · 22/03/2018 08:01

No voucher here. Such a shame as ds could really have done with this after tragic death of hamster last night!

Congratulations everyone! Please post pics of chosen bears Bear Smile

Leicesterpiggott · 22/03/2018 10:35

We have a voucher too! Thanks so much...
Is it essential we post a pic or can we just give our feedback? I'd rather not post a pic of my DD if I don't have to...

Patienceofatoddler · 22/03/2018 11:05

In the email it says two weeks to use the voucher - Can anyone confirm by what date it needs to be used?

Can't make it to our nearest one this weekend..

totallyLosingIt · 22/03/2018 11:27

Absolutely gutted to have missed out. DD(4) would have loved this and so deserves the treat after a rollercoaster 6 months!

If anyone can't use their voucher, then would you be willing to pass it on? Promise I would still do the feedback etc as specified in the original post!

captainjacksparrow · 22/03/2018 11:31

Same here, if anyone can't use the voucher I would love to tale it and complete the feedback etc Smile

I meant pictures of the bear not children Blush

Upyours2017 · 22/03/2018 11:35

Got a voucher! Thanks so much!

TellMeItsNotTrue · 22/03/2018 12:17

What a wonderful email to wake up to! I am bursting to tell DC but I've decided to take them to the shopping centre and surprise them over a babychino Grin they have been amazing through a difficult time lately so they really deserve this and I am so happy to be able to treat them. They are going to be so excited and I am just so so happy at the thought of their reactions!

I am happy to describe everything to the smallest of details, and post a picture of purchases, but I do not share pictures of DC publicly. I hope this is OK, it did say that it would be good to see pictures, but not that it was a requirement

Wilberforce2 · 22/03/2018 15:07

We got an email, one very happy 4 year old! Just waiting for the voucher now as not received it yet x
