We zipped up my son’s bear and then realised that the plastic hearts (and cardboard accessories if you wish) needed to be inserted into the bear. The machine is perfect for children and adults alike who are looking to create a personalized toy that they can cherish for years to come. Consenting to these technologies will allow us to process data such as browsing behaviour or unique IDs on this site. One bear requires one bag of stuffing, simply put a bag of stuffing into the stuffing station, place one of the bears over the nozzle and begin to turn the handle clockwise. It didn’t matter massively as my boys liked twisting the lever and we ended up just taking the bear off and stuffing him with what was coming out of the nozzle, but in theory, it did make the stuffing station slightly redundant as we could have stuffed it from the bag directly!

With its easy-to-use features, it allows you to stuff and customize your very own teddy bear in a matter of minutes. The instructions are really clear and helpful, with a step by step guide to stuffing and completing your bears, including tips if you run into any issues with the stuffing or zip. Each Build-A-Bear Stuffing Station includes: One Build-A-Bear Stuffing Station, two furry friends, two T-shirts, two birth certificates, two hearts, two bags of stuffing and 20 paper accessories. This may be quite obvious to other people but I was feeling a bit frazzled that day and hadn’t noticed.I think it's a fab product but my only reservation is the fact that you can only make 2 bears with the kit. She had fun playing with the cardboard accessories and dressing them up in their t-shirts, and she found the whole experience really entertaining.

And now we've been able to bring the fun of Build-A-Bear home with their fantastic Stuffing Station.Since then we've had many more of these creations come into our house, including my youngest's favourite cuddly toy, Chewbacca. They even went as far as getting rulers and weighing scales out so that they could give exact measurements.

Featuring a brand of Spin Master, this plush bear is made of high-quality materials that ensure its durability. It is a great experience for children to be able to do and would make the perfect gift for any Build-A-Bear fan. Children aged 4 years and over can use the Build-a-Bear Stuffing Station to stuff two furry friends, make a wish in the hearts, dress them in unique outfits, and name them on their birth certificates all from the comfort of their own home. The Build-A-Bear stuffing station is a kit that allows your children to make two of their very own Build-A-Bear cuddly friends from the comfort of their own home. My eldest was bought her first Build-A-Bear by her Grandpappy, she's now twelve and this bear still sits at the end of her bed.This added an extra element to the toy, giving it a learning aspect as well as the fun side of it all. They both have their bears on the pillows of their bed and love knowing they have a special heart inside and that they made the bears themselves! It was quite tricky to keep the bear attached / hooked onto the nozzle of the stuffing station where the stuffing comes out.

This toy was all about the experience of building the bears rather than the end product in my opinion. I’ve always wanted to make my own bear as it’s such an important companion when your child so to create your own bear is amazing. Each time the bear pops off you can move the stuffing around into the legs, arms and head and once all the stuffing is out of the station your bear will be perfectly plump. The only extra thing we had to use was a hair pin to open up one of the bears after we had realised that we had forgotten to put the heart in. com/-OKpNTusFbR4/WVfENyn_drI/AAAAAAAARe0/PDukU5Jpmnok-m6iiD6LuMhBUHiZvmKfgCLcBGAs/s1600/MMM%2Bbadge.You stuff and create them, dress them in their lovely Rainbow themed clothes, make a wish in their hearts and you also have certificates for each of your creations. The accompanying birth certs are good and my six year old enjoyed filling his in (with a little help from me). I am sure all parents will agree that when you have children storage space is tight so having a toy taking up room that cannot be used again without an addition cost is a little frustrating. My nine and seven year olds were able to do the majority of this by themselves, the only thing that they needed help with was popping the bears back on the nozzle on occasion. Attach one of the bears to the side of the stuffing station (see photo below) and start turning the handle.
