Build-A-Bear Workshop means fun for everyone! We’re proud to support children with autism and other special needs by providing sensory-friendly events at all Workshop locations. Sensory-Friendly Tuesdays are designed to provide a less-stimulating Workshop experience that’s still fun-filled and unforgettable. Our Bear Builders are here to make sure each Guest goes through the Build-A-Bear experience in a way that’s comfortable for them.

Accommodations include

• Dimmer lighting

• Little to no music playing in the store

• A step-by-step informational guide that allows parents/guardians to plan their Workshop experience in advance (click here to download)
