To make things even more exciting you could use this awesome heart shaped cookie cutter! I will have to try this next time, and let you know how it goes. This shape is even perfect for pancakes, sandwiches and so much more!
First choose the plush that you would like. It’s not always an easy decision with all the adorable choices. Each plush has the price on the sign in front of it. They usually start around $12. My daughters and I went last weekend and had a great time making new fluffy friends. One chose Clarice and the other chose an adorable puppy. The staff was so friendly and helped us every step of the way.
Once you pick your plush new friend you can also choose to add a sound inside as well as a special scent. My daughters made me a bear for Mother’s Day a few years ago and recorded a special message to me in their own voices. I love being able to push the button inside my bear to hear my special message. You can also choose from a list of special sounds, songs, and more. This time my daughters each decided to include a special scent inside their selected new friends. They both chose strawberry but there were several scents to choose from.
Choose what your new friend will wear and don’t forget the accessories! They even have pretend iPads and iPods.
