Build a bear party

[Loveagoodbargain]

Who knows about build a bear parties. The FAQ on the website don't work. Does anybody know how much they cost per child? I know you have to have a minimum of 6 kids. . Any other info greatly appreciated . thanks

I think it starts from £9 a head, last time I looked into it.

FAQ seems to be working www.buildabear.co.uk/help/partyQuestions.aspx

You set the budget, like say £16 per child. The facilitators will steer the children towards bears/outfits that won't exceed the budget. You pay for what the children actually buy.

Thanks for all help. Sure dd will change mind loads before birthday. 4 weeks to go yet!

They are fab in there but it's still expensive. My little ponys are £19 each plus the cape is £10 and shoes for all feet would be £10. So that's £39 for one. My dd went to one who set the budget at £15 and ended up with just a plain bear as couldn't get any extras due to price of bear.

How about looking into make your own bear/ cat/ pony/ puppy party at home. You can buy ready to stuff kits designed for parties from £5.99, then you can buy t shirts for £1.99. They come with birth certificate, wish. Charm, stuffing etc.See my question in thread above for bear making parties at home, I got a great response with ideas in my reply from someone. We're getting the 8 inch kits and doing puppies or kittens.
