Party Packages

Planning a birthday, school visit, or special event? Here are the most common questions about how our mobile party setup works, what’s included, and how to book your perfect experience.

We recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and time — especially during weekends and peak seasons. But feel free to check availability anytime!

We have On-Site Stuff-a-Bear Visits with a Stuffing Machine and kids get to help us stuff the animal with the stuffer.  We also have On-Site Visits with Hand Stuffing as an Activity.  Both options include the kids picking out a full 16″ animal, picking out a heart to “make a wish” and insert into their animal and birth certificates – everything done at your location.  We bring a variety of animals (8+) and outfits, if chosen, for both boys and girls.

See Party Package Section for Package Choices. We have packages with t-shirts and outfits.

We can accommodate anywhere from 5 to 400 kids! Most of our events fall in the 10–25 range, but we’re happy to customize the experience to fit your group size.  Discounts may apply for large groups.  We do have a minimum of $349 for a Visit.  DIY Kits do not have a minimum.

Yes! We’re 100% mobile and bring the party to your location — whether it’s a backyard, classroom, community center, or office. Inside or Outside (weather permitting).  All we need is access to a standard electric outlet for our stuffer, if you chose the Stuffer Visit option.

To reserve your party’s date and time, all we require is a $100 deposit that is credited back to you the day of the party.  A separate email would be sent out for the deposit.
