Special $10 bear-making experience runs July 14-18
Parents searching for the perfect school holiday activity need look no further than Lilydale Marketplace, where the beloved Stufflers experience is set to delight children from Monday 14th to Friday 18th July.
The popular teddy bear making activity, which normally costs $35, will be available for just $10 during the special holiday promotion, offering families an affordable way to create lasting memories while keeping the kids entertained.
“We are very excited to be able to share the Stufflers experience with our customers, it’s such a unique event, and so much fun for the kids,” said Lilydale Marketplace Marketing Executive Mikaela Bek.
“Parents were looking for more when it comes to school holiday entertainment, and this really delivers something special.”
The Stufflers experience begins with children selecting from a range of adorable unstuffed bears, each waiting to be brought to life. Using a foot-powered mobile stuffing machine, young creators fill their new friend with soft, warm fluff, deciding exactly how firm or cuddly they’d like their bear to be.
The magic continues with a heart-warming love ceremony, where children insert a special token and make a promise to care for their new companion. This touching ritual adds an emotional connection that transforms a simple craft activity into something truly meaningful.
For those wanting to personalise their creation further, Stufflers offers an extensive range of outfits and sound chips featuring themes like sports, princesses, and emergency services. These accessories allow children to create a truly one-of-a-kind bear with its own unique personality and voice.
The experience concludes with each child naming their new friend and receiving an official birth certificate to commemorate the special occasion. This final touch makes the moment truly memorable and gives children a keepsake to treasure alongside their new cuddly companion.
The Stufflers team brings all the equipment needed for the bear-making magic, including the mobile stuffing machine that makes the experience possible outside of a traditional workshop setting. This means families can enjoy the full Stufflers experience right in the heart of Lilydale Marketplace.
With the school holidays offering limited entertainment options, this special pricing makes the Stufflers experience accessible to more families. However, organisers warn that once the daily limit of 200 bears is reached, the cost will increase to $14, so early arrival is recommended.
Parents should note that while the $10 special price includes the teddy bear and birth certificate, clothing and accessories are available at additional cost. Terms and conditions apply, and the offer is available while stocks last.
So if you’re looking to fill the school holidays with laughter, creativity, and a cuddly new friend, head to Lilydale Marketplace between July 14-18. But be warned – once children experience the joy of creating their first bear, they might just want to build an entire bear family!
