This Build-A-Bear Workshop does not have the large open stuffing machine, but it is still a great store. The store is the perfect place to visit if you enjoy stuffed animals. Adults will enjoy the unusual types of animals offered throughout the year. Each holiday a new bear or animal is introduced. The staff is extremely well trained and helpful. Don't count on all the same items to be available all year, since the inventory does change with certain seasons. Kids will enjoy the selection of outfits, including shoes and hats! Parking is at the mall and there is plenty of open spaces any time of the day or season.

If you've got kids, it's only a matter of time till you hit Build a Bear. It is a beautiful store, with adorable animals that will tempt even the most curmudgeonly adult (in fact, today I treated myself to a flamingo!). The store is bright and spotless, with tons of little do-dads for all the animals (outfits, jewelry, underwear, you name it). The animals themselves are unstuffed, and the fun part is when the employees help you stuff them, put in a heart, and then get a birth certificate for them and give them an "air bath". They even go home in a house-shaped box. It's all too cute. I only rated 4 stars because sometimes I've found employees to be more involved in visiting with each other than in helping customers.
