Build-A-Bear Discount Codes December 2025

1 Current Deal

In-store only

When an adult signs up to Bonus Club scheme. For example, three-year-olds pay £3

If you sign up to the Build-A-Bear Workshop loyalty scheme, on your child’s birthday they can make a bear in-store (normally £14) and pay their age in pounds. For example, three-year-olds get a bear for £3.

How do I get this offer?

Sign up to the free Bonus Club loyalty scheme, online in advance or in-store – a grown-up will have to do this.
A child under 14 should attend during their birthday month with a grown-up aged over 18 to claim a discounted bear (you can't claim this offer online).
Let the workshop know you're celebrating a birthday to get this offer.
Confirm your account details (email address, phone number or account number) at checkout.

As the special birthday bears in this offer are normally £14, it's for kids aged under 14 years.

Build-A-Bear says no proof of age is needed – it’s done on trust – but you might be told to get stuffed if you try telling them your 12-year-old is six.

Which bears can I get and how much are they normally?

The offer only applies to the Make-Your-Own Birthday Treat Bear, usually £14.

You'd need to pay for any clothing, accessories, sounds or scents you choose to add.

For full T&Cs, see Build-A-Bear's Count Your Candles page.

Free protection for all shopping!

There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.

If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link.
