Man I would love to see them interview the Build-A-Bear near me. Me and my partner went to one (I was buying their Christmas gift) and they decided on a Hello Kitty, but desperately wanted to put it in the suit a frog was wearing (we couldn't find another). We had to ask if we could take it off, and she said yes. So we stripped the frog in front of her and threw it in the Hello Kitty. As we were finishing and paying, the cashier asks what my partner was naming it. They look at me, look at the cashier, and just says "Anarchist." From the frog to that, she just started laughing so hard.
Oh, and my partner also put the snoring sound meme into the paw, just as a chery on top.
Shelly kitty? Is that a demon?
AW
Idk why I didn’t put that sound into mine, I will next time definitely 😂😂 I missed out but not again
I was ur 1k like :)
This had me wheezing 🤣🤣
Kids are so sweet sometimes. I worked as a teacher in a primary school when I lived abroad. I taught English (as a foreign language) and Maths. On my last day the kids told me they wanted to give me something. They gave me a box with chocolate, photos of each of them saying something nice and a card that said we love you forever. I kid you not I started crying then and there and two of them came up to me and hugged me telling me not to be sad. I told them I wasn't sad, I was just crying because I was so happy. Then one of them said "you know, I never liked Maths but your lessons were always really fun"
This is why I am a teacher. Not for the presents but for kids to say that they learned to love my subject. 3 years ago and I remember it clear as day
That's so sweet and wholesome, omg
Thanks so much for sharing, this is so wholesome ❤
This just unlocked a preschool memory for me. At the end of class we would all give our teacher a big group hug and then go home 🥺
Aww.... my son used to be like this. When he was 3 he would always invite random people over to play. Like people in line at the grocery store. He was so cute. Hes 24 now. Hes still the nicest person But I would sell my soul for my kids to be little again and get to live those years all over again. Cherish every moment. They grow up so fast. Its cliche but true.
Lol “sell my soul”
Yeah I do that a lot
Kids are very pure hearted. I work as a preschool teacher and at this point I have lost point of the amount of times that a toddler has invited me to their house, birthday party, vacation, etc.
A couple weeks ago I had a kid tell me he was moving to Hawaii after the semester ends. I gasp and say “Oh, I’ll miss you so much!” and he says “Well you can come with me if you want.” After I say that I can’t, this four year old says that he’ll give me his phone number so that I could call him!
I had a dad pay in cash and his four year old daughter asked if she could keep the change. He goes “what do you need the change for?” She holds out her hand and deadpans, “my taxes.”
She's starting young! 😆
Love kids... I worked for a big retailer and always focused on kids when I checked them out. One little girls was buying a DVD and she wanted me to come over and watch it. I said the same thing this women did and said I had to work ... But she would not let it go she wanted to know when my brake and day off where lol
That's adorable! 🤩
Ahw
She's must've of learnt from observing her parents making appointments, clearly observant.
I wouldn't blame her, DVDs are really cool
@@orphan-account2023 fr DVDs are lit but I'm so upset you can hardly find normal DVDs anymore, it's all about blu-ray 😭
When I was a lifeguard at this indoor waterpark, I was warned by my coworkers when trading posts that there was this "annoying girl trying to make tiktoks with us". (I was 18, she must've been like 14). So she comes up to me like clockwork and says "OMG WILL YOU MAKE A TIKTOK WITH ME IT'S MY BIRTHDAY?!" And I was like "You know what? Sure." Still super awkward, but her and her group of friends freaked out and were like "You're the only one who was nice to us!!!". She asked me when my break was and I told them I'd go swimming with them on lunch. She then asked if I was going to eat and I told her no I didn't have time but that was okay, so she called her mom and asked her to bring me a 3 pack of taco bell tacos and leave them at the front desk 🥲 I found them on my next break with a note from her mom that said "Thanks for taking time out of your day to celebrate, *girl's name* said you were very kind."
Literally one of the sweetest moments I've ever had.
Awww! That was such an awesome thing for you to do for her on her birthday. 🤩
Dude this is literally so wholesome 😂
Edit: y’all all I said was one basic thing and 657 likes TYSM guys!

Reddit type response

Once I was out eating with my roommates, a little girl came out of nowhere, sat down with us, and invited us to her birthday. She was so sweet and decided to eat at our booth with us, her parents even bought us a dessert as a thank you for “babysitting”
That's adorable! 🤩
I work at a grocery store. We don’t have stickers for kids in the register drawers, but we have “thanks for coming!” stickers. They’re kind of ugly and utilitarian, for larger items to show they’ve paid. I always offer tiny kids these dumb shit stickers and they always light up. I love it.
Build-a-bear workers are seriously the best! We took my special needs sister there for her birthday and the workers were so sweet and so attentive to her.
That's so great, Emma! Sounds like you had an awesome experience. 🤩
@@not-always-right I did, and so did my sister 🤗
Love the Star Wars cantina song in the background
right?! gives that certain Je ne sais quoi
Two days ago, I was walking down the street and passed this cute little kid with glasses and his dad riding bicycles. He looked at me joyfully and said "hi !". It made my day.
Awww that's awesome! Kids sure know how to brighten someone's mood. 😄
Ok I have to shoutout the build a bear worker in a Walmart in Riverside!! The one next to (John’s incredible pizza). Well I go in for my daughters birthday bear. And I wanted to put in those voice things to record myself singing a song to my daughter. I was in tears trying to sing “La vie en rose.” My daughters middle name is rose so i made that her song. While im singing im in tears.
I have stage 4 breast cancer and im only 25 and my daughter is 2. Got diagnosed last year. My worst fear is having the cancer win and me being taken away from my baby girl. And her forgetting me. So I recorded my voice so she at least could still hear my voice if im gone. It was the most gut wrenching thing I had to do but I did it. The worker there was so touched by my story that he allowed me to do another voice for free and in that one I recorded myself saying goodnight to her and that mommy loves her so so much. And to have good dreams.
So im in tears apologizing and the amazing worker says no worries and asks if we were buying the best any outfits. Since we’re pretty broke half the time I said no just the free bear and the voice please. So he threw in a whole fairy outfit for my girls bear for free. Then he said the whole best was free. I didn’t pay a dime for my girls bear. I’ll never forget this experience and I’ll never not believe that there’s no food left in this world because there always will be. And thanks to that worker my daughter will have my voice if something happens to me.
Working at a build a bear while sometimes stressful is so much fun when you have these sweet little interactions
Build a bear employees are just the best❤😂
They absolutely are! 😁
That’s such an adorable story 😂
It sure is! 😄
The build a bear near me, I was getting a matching frog with my best friend. We're both 21. They still kept the magic of it for us, since we told them we've never been as kids (poor™) it was wonderful
That's awesome, Willow! Sounds like you both had a great time. 🤩
Build a bear for the most part is awesome except for the low hours. You get fun moments like this
DUDE that sounds like something yong me would've done!!! My mom always tells me about how I would invite Walmart workers to my house to hangout🤣🤣
My sister had a work experience like that. There was this little girl that would follow her around Chucky Cheese while she was cleaning. She would call her Elsa because of my sister’s white hair. It was the sweetest thing every and the parents wouldn’t stop laughing
That's so cute, Martha! Your sister must've loved that. 😄
Kids are amazing, they don’t have any social constraints on friendship and they will offer you their heart ❤️
They really are amazing! 🤩
My ALL TIME favorite moment so far while working with kids (working with them for about 4 years now, ages 0-21) and there was one time a 3 year old patient came up to me after her appointment (I was the one who took her vitals and put her in the room) and kissed my cheek without me knowing she was going to! UGH! my heart melted! I gave her a big hug and her mom laughed 😂😂 they are literally one of my favorite families to see
I work with kids and even when they can be the cause of your stress sometimes the love and joy they give you makes everything so worthwhile
Awwww! That's adorable. We love hearing about moments like that. 😄
This is the most cutest and wholesome thing that I ever heard on a build a bear video 🥹
The child is to precious for this world protect child at all costs
I once had really bad chest problems, and had to go to hospital about once a year. It was my birthday soon when we got there, and I said the exact same thing to my nurse
So original. Kids invite everyone they run into to their bday.
I went to build a bear with my boyfriend about 2 weeks ago and he got me a frog, and when we got up to the stuffing station the man looks at us and in a very monotone voice goes “so is this a joint custody situation or what’s going on here” and me and my boyfriend still quote that all the time. He was one of the types of people that was incredibly monotone and sounded uninterested but obviously loved his job.
Man i want someone to say that to me and my fiancé at a buildabear.
The first time I had a (child) student in my art class ask to get a picture with me after class, and the mom told me how her daughter was asking how she can be like me when she grows up. Had more like it since, but that first little girl who looked up to me was *chefs kiss* my favorite beautiful moment. And I still have her picture in my phone to remind me why I love my job on those days I just can't even.
Awww! That's so sweet, Crystal! Thanks for sharing with us. 😄
I just recently went to build-a-bear with my partner.(we are both autistic) and my parter wanted us to have frogs and I named mine frogbert because i’ve always dreamed of having a frog with the name frogbert. And they named their frog frogbertha. And the lady at the register got the birth certificates and she said to us “these are the funniest and best unique names ever I love them” and she gave our stuff for free basically it was amazing and I was so happy. Because I didn’t even notice until I got home and my mum said you got your stuff for free. I was shocked but it made sense for why she told me to get a little ornament but I didn’t get it and I wish I did :(
Wow I haven't been to Build a Bear Workshop in years that story was totally wholesome. ❤️
It really is! Thanks for commenting. ❤️
I swear to God I've never seen a bad build a bear employee thank u for also making child's days too!
I was definitely someone worst work story at Build-A-Bear. I was like eight, and I had been collecting coins from the laundry for months. I saved up about $50 dollars in coins and dumped them all on the counter, I still remember the very annoyed look I got from the cashier. And being a cashier now I completely understand. But my mom told me that that would be the only way I could get a teddy bear from Build-A-Bear since she couldnt afford to buy me one.
Once I had to buy a sub sandwich in coins because it was the only money I had, and they were annoyed with me. That was for food and was way less than $50. That was their problem.
If I were the cashier for a kid having saved up for something less crucial to survival than food and was way more money, like you did, I would very happily and proudly count it all out for you. There's nothing wrong or shameful for using legal tender to buy things. A bad attitude is a reflection of the person who has it.
My sister used to want to work at build-a-bear when she was about 6. She wanted to be a fluff maker because she thought that there was actually someone making/churning the fluff😂😂
Sounds like she wanted to make cotton candy not stuffed animal fluff! 🤣
I love the workers at build a bear I love getting my stuffed animals there, I took my niece for the first time this year she’s one so she didn’t get it right away, was excited when she saw all the bears through the window then when we walked in she just stared at the employee very nice women probably in her 20s and she was wear a bear mask they have . She was so confused if it was a person or a bear. It was so precious.
The honest love, and want to share joy, from a child can be mind boggling
It really is! 😄
Omg. 100% agree. I have similar conversations with my students at the dojang. (I’m a Martial Arts Instructor for ages 3 and up). None have invited me to their party (I hosted one today tho lol. One lil girl was very happy tht I was there when it was her brothers birthday).
aw man, I used to have a Builld-A-Bear where I grew up. This brings back wholesome memories, and I still have 2-3 of these :')
She’s so amazing this worker awww ❤
She absolutely is! 😄
She has the perfect disposition for this job!
She sure does, Dana! 🤩
Bruh, I literally have a story like that:
So I’m twelve and in sixth grade. And our elementary school does sixth grade. For some reason, all the kindergarteners LOVED me. Like every time I walked into the room they would scream my name. But they wouldn’t pronounce the R in my name. My name is Avery. But they pronounced it like “Avey” or “Avweee” So anyways, there was this sweet little girl who I thought was really annoying because she would always come up to me and hug me. (I don’t like physical touch) On a complete random time she asked “Wanna come to my birthday party?” And I’m like “Oh, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it. But I wish I could.” Bro, she believed the lies and actually thought I wanted to come but couldn’t. She felt bad that I “couldn’t come” so literally the next week she brought me a goodie bag from her party and it had the most random things in there. (A weird curly straw, a little donut plushy and some bubbles) But it was cute and my mom thought it was trash and threw it away. (DON’T WORRY! I USED THE BUBBLES BEFORE SHE THREW IT AWAY!)
Your mother.. THREW IT AWAY?? NOOOOO😭😭😭 bubbles I love bubbles I remember when I swallowed one... it tasted like soap
Thats really sweet
Did you save the donut plushy 😢
@@Jazzyluna3882 No 😢
@@harrypotternerd9568 noooo😭 poor plushy
This is why I’d love to work at build a bear
You should 100% go work there! 😎
That is absolutely adorable 🥺
I’ve never actually been to any build-a-bear but when I was younger I really wanted one. But I went to something similar at great wolf lodge when you get a wolf instead, either way, build-a-bear seems like a blast.
Getting a wolf sounds pretty awesome, too! 😁
So for my 16th birthday party I went to bab so far so good. After stuffing my bear I stepped forward to get it and accidentally stepped on the the stuffing peddle and blew stuffing all into the workers face. It was really funny.
Oops! Hopefully the worker laughed as well. Sounds like it was a hilarious moment. 😆
i went to build-a-bear and got a stuffed panda i named valentine. i barely remember any of it but i do remember when they put the heart in. i thought they were giving her life. sadly she is sitting collecting dust and has a batman mask on lol
People at build a bear are so nice (from my experience) and they were always so patient with me
We're not surprised. We keep hearing great things about the workers from build-a-bear! 🤩
Lol the other day I had a little boy come in offering to let me come to the aquarium with him for his bday and I literally said the same thing 🤣 working at bab is so fun
When i went in a camper van with my family in 2020 i was sitting bored in a playground full of kids (even tho i was a teen lol) this little girl came up to me and told me all about her birthday party and said i should be invited. I quietly sat and listened to her. Then her parents came out and started yelling at me for playing and talking with her. They then warned the girl about “stranger danger” and left
Very sad :(
This is her craziest story but this is my kids on the regular 😅
You must host giant parties with all the invites your kids are giving out! 😆
Awww how precious.
The way she said that at the end with the face expression and scratching her arm- you know she is lying😂
A grown man got verbally upset with my coworker and I accusing us of stealing his crickets…after several back and fourths I finally just said “sir I have a colony of roaches at home…I don’t need 2 crickets.” And fighting crazy with crazy worked that day.
I have a story sort of like this
I’m 11 and in 5th grade my school does this thing we’re at recess we help out the kindergartners with their lunch and recess. So there’s this kid we’ll call him Elijah he’s my best buddy. He always wants to share his food with me. We can’t share food. I like to say how delicious their food looks, then Elijah gets a BIG spoon full of yogurt and says,” you want some!” Then I say,”we can’t share food Elijah!” Then he said back to me, “ but you said that yesterday!” ( he tried doing that with his apple sauce the day before) then I say ,” we still can’t share food Elijah “
That made my day for a how nice and giving the kinders are at my school are.
If that didn’t make sense tell me and I’ll try to rephrase it.
Build a bear really helped me out my son had a heart transplant so he has two bears one of his original heartbeat and one with his new ,
That's so cool, Lauren! 🤩
I work part time on weekends at BAB and one time a grouchy grandma got impatient at us for our checkout system malfunctioning and threw money in my face. Also some CZcams prankster guy came in and filmed us without our knowledge.
She’s adorable
She really is! 🤩
I’ve never been to build a bear but it seems so much fun there 😍
You should definitely go and build a bear! 😁
I love the lego starwars music in the backround
Kids man.. they’re the best. I have a lil nine year old girl in my life, and the things she says cracks me up. The other day she told me she got called a Karen by a literal four year old on the school bus, and the funniest part was she goes “and I wasn’t even being a Karen!”. I was like “oh my god, how do you even know what that means?!”.
Called a Karen by a four-year-old?! That's the youngest Karen we've heard of! Even if the four-year-old didn't know what it meant, it's hilarious! 😅🤣
I’m a cashier at a theme park and my faveriote moment was I was talking to a little boy and we were talking about his faveriote rides and how much fun he was having and then j got called the best cashier ever
This happens to me all the time in school when I go and help for little kids out
This is why I love kids I really want to work at build a bear now🥰
You should definitely go apply! 🤩
…at build a bear, I named a frog booty, and my sisters frogs name is hole. That thought this where joking…we weren’t joking 😳😂😳😂😳😂
that child is so adorable-
So cute😂 my dad works for bounce house
Does he get invited to lots of parties?! 😆
BAB was one of my favorite jobs❤️
Sounds like for the most part, everyone loves working at Build-A-Bear! 😁
I work at a gym daycare and I have kids ask me to come to their birthday parties all the time. Once a kid asked me to join their grandmas birthday
That's adorable, Hannah! 😄
Godbless your heart ❤️
She is so sweet! Why does she remind me of Bridget from that trolls movie 😂😂😂
I actually love build a bear so much
It is a pretty awesome place! 😁
She would be a cute mom
As a Build A Bear employee, I also love these adorable experiences with the kiddos!🥰
We bet you get invited to tons of parties, too! 🤩
I found out today that you can buy clothes for plushies outside of build a bear as longs as it fits in the plushies
IF U EVER SEE HER AGAIN OR I SEE HER TELL HER THAT I LOVEEEEEE BUILD A BEAR ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awww I cant!
We couldn't either. We would've loved to, though. Bounce houses are a blast. 😁
One time , I was super excited to get a build a bear as the last time I got one was when I was 5 or maybe 3 . So my little brother also wanted one . He did the whole heart and hugging thing and then he said “I don’t want it anymore “ . The lady there was super nice and said it’s no problem and we can just get the one I wanted the pink unicorn on skates . I was pretty frustrated at him for that but at least the ppl there were not mad
That’s so adorable
It 1000% is! 😁
I love it
We do, too, Jess! Thanks for commenting. 😁
Oh wow. Build a bear gets pretty wild 😜
While I was watching this I was snuggling with a build a bear frog plushy wow what a coincidence🐸🧸
Wow! Maybe it's a sign you need to go back to build-a-bear and get your frog a friend. 😎
Aw this was really cute
It really is! 😄
I hope y’all Pay these pple for their time
That’s awesome
I love that❤️😍
We do, too, Elyse! 🤩
Wholesome 🥺
I work with chilsren as well, and of course you hype them up and act excited to hear what thry say, and i remember so vividly the first time i was in this kind of situation this kid was talking about some show he liked and the toys he had, i said it sounded fun and him being a kind little chind of course wanted to invite his teacher that he sees as a friend. I didnt know what to say and was utterly terrified to respond, cause i cannot say idont want to, bit i had litterally no excuse i could come up with, thank god one of the seniors saved my ass but still
I’m 20 and still have my first build a bear from when I was 4. I made a brown and tan king eared puppy with pink eyes. I want a teddy bear now lol
Sounds like it's time for another visit to build-a-bear so you can make a new one! 😄
So sweet ✨
It really is the sweetest! 🤩
Broo that was my sister! My parents told me the SAME exact story!!
No way!
When I worked at build a bear, we had a lady call asking to put a jar that had her dead dog's heart in it. My coworker answered and said "Yes we can do that." First off, we couldn't. Second off, that coworker quit later when she got in trouble for being on her phone watching Netflix instead of working. And finally, no that lady never came. Still crazy though.
That's wild! We've heard of people wanting to put ashes or something but a jar with a heart?! 😬
i once asked my kindergarten teacher to come to my bday party and she came to my house for the party ❤
That's so cool! We love hearing stories like that. 🤩
Top thing I miss about working on the Jurassic Park Ride before it closed, was the kids. Yeah most can suck but I would bring my personal fossil collection and talking to the kids about them and hearing them talk about what they’ve learned about dinosaurs was so fun
That sounds like it was awesome! You probably made those kids' day by showing them your fossil collection. 🤩
That’s so cute ❤❤❤
What I thought the kid was going to say when she said she got a b-day party:Your🙄not🙅♀️invited😈
That definitely would've been something we would've shared on here, too. 😂 We're glad this one wasn't like that!
So cute!
The cutest! 😄
I was expecting something nuts like the kid saying ‘there was a swat team at my last birthday part cuz my dad deals drugs’
That would've made for a wild plot twist! 🤣
omg i just applied to build a bear and now im seeing this video about working there
That's awesome! We hope you get the job. 🤩
She looks alot like ms judge (my music teacher) and she has like- the same personality omg
I think that was me most likely not though
