I had the best experience today with Melissa! She is so fun, and made this experience for me (as an adult) so unique & cool.

I took two girls to build a bear today. It was one of the girls first time. Everyone in the store went above and beyond!! They made us feel so comfortable. They encouraged us to try all the clothes on our new friends. We left feeling so full of love! The staff will be the reason we come back to this location! See you again... read full comment
