Build A Bear - What comes in a No-Sew Stuffed Animal Kit
Easy to make bears for everyone
Everything you need to make these great bears are in the kit. The plush bears come with:1. The plush animal skin
2. The stuffing or fill
3. A birth certificate, and
4. A wishing star insert.
The kit allows you to stuff your own bear. After stuffing the bear but before you close up the zipper on it's back, make a wish and write it on the wishing star insert. The wish stays inside forever.
Use the birth certificate to make your new bear a part of your family.
The zipper on the back of the bear make it easy to close. It also locks so you don't have to worry about children opening it up - the filling stays safe inside.
Simple instructions included. What a great project for all ages as young as 3 and as old as 103. Everyone needs a stuffed bear!
Build a Bear in 3 easy steps
Easy to build bears
- Stuff the filling inside the bear skin.
- Write your wish on the Wishing Star insert and place it into the bear.
- Zip the bear up!
