Boyd's Super Duper Bear Factory

We went to Gettysburg to visit with Monica's Uncle that she hasn't seen since she was a little girl. Before we left Gettysburg, we stopped at the Boyd's Bear store. Stephen had a great time creating a bear. Here are the steps to make a stuffed "friend"

First- you take a time card and punch in. You walk over and choose your stuffed friend.

Second- you fill a measuring cup with beads. Each color bead represents something you are filling your bear with like red for love, purple for laughter, blue for joy, and etc.

Third-the beads are put in your bear and you are given a golden bean

with a paw print on it to make a wish for your stuffed friend.

Fourth-you brush and fluff your bear.

Fifth- you pick out an outfit that you would like your bear to wear. Stephen chose jeans and a sweater that has Gettysburg written on it. Lastly, you take your bear home to be your forever stuff "friend".
