If you sign up to the Build-A-Bear Workshop loyalty scheme, on your child’s birthday they can make a bear in-store (normally £14) and pay their age in pounds. For example, three-year-olds get a bear for £3.
Sign up to the free Bonus Club loyalty scheme, online in advance or in-store – a grown-up will have to do this.
A child under 14 should attend during their birthday month with a grown-up aged over 18 to claim a discounted bear (you can't claim this offer online).
Let the workshop know you're celebrating a birthday to get this offer.
Confirm your account details (email address, phone number or account number) at checkout.
As the special birthday bears in this offer are normally £14, it's for kids aged under 14 years.
Build-A-Bear says no proof of age is needed – it’s done on trust – but you might be told to get stuffed if you try telling them your 12-year-old is six.
The offer only applies to the Make-Your-Own Birthday Treat Bear, when visiting a store.
You'd need to pay for any clothing, accessories, sounds or scents you choose to add.
For full T&Cs, see Build-A-Bear's Count Your Candles page.
