If you're close to or in Calgary or Edmonton a great addition to your event would be a trip to Build-A-Bear Workshop to have the girls make their own bear. You need to book your event with them a few months in advance. We're letting our girls pick a bear in the $15 - $19 range. That gives them a choice of 6 bears. We're also purchasing a shirt for the bear ($6) and we'll be putting a trefoil on it as part of our afternoon crafts. Build-A-Bear also gives each girl who builds a bear a crest. Build-A-Bear Workshop is located at Chinook Centre in Calgary and West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton.
