There is real life activities, such as a kitchen, a grocery store, a train, that has additional things for kids to do that mock real life, which includes a cooking apron, a train engineer, coat, etc. They have an outdoor area and when we were there, it was cooler and rainy, but I could see that this is a wonderful extension to additional play areas suggest a treehouse, a farm silo and a farmers market. Now the treehouse was a little bit dirty, but I think it's probably the time of the year and that it was really damp and wet during our visit. There's a place for you to have lunch. There are organized activities in the afternoon, which we did not participate in, but that goes additional things to do in the afternoon if you're there for a long period of time. The employees there were more than helpful and friendly . Facility was very clean and well organized.

We were served a fancy drink with cotton candy on top and my daughter left with accessories and a goody bag of more treats. I would recommend this to anyone!

The classes are divided into different age groups and the kids learn about colors, patience, taking turns, and so much more. There's is a Little Gym five mins away from where I live. I tried taking my kid there for close to 7 months and he never really felt comfortable and I felt like the teachers were a little detached. We've been going to My Gym for almost two years now and it's a joy each time. My son LOVES it there, asks to go, and is always excited to see his teachers. The teachers are truly outstanding. I just can't say enough.

So I feel a bit torn about Build-A-Bear. I remember when Build-A-Bear was a new concept back in the…read more90s when I was a kid, and I have memories of it feeling really fun and kind of magical to walk through, pick out a bear, stuff it, dress it, and take it home. Of course, as a child, I wasn't paying for my bear and had no understanding of the process, so from a 90's 8 year old perspective, this place was great. Flash forward to 2024 and I took my daughter here on her fourth birthday as a special morning outing for us. I found Build-A-Bear much as I had left it in the late 90s. It was clean, but the format was the same, the footprint at Oak Park Mall the same, and it felt similar to what I remembered from childhood. I let my kiddo pick out a "bear" (hers was a Chase dog from Paw Patrol) and we started our journey. I guess the first thing that was sort of a let down for me, is how fast the whole experience was. I feel like for Build-A-Bear to be around for nearly 30 years, it would have seen some innovation to stay competitive with other entertainment options for children. I was dismayed that for a whopping $72 we were in there for maybe 30 minutes, and that is honestly being generous. With such a fun concept, and such an insane price point, I was hoping for something more immersive, and more magical. It felt like we were kind of just moving through a production line. Aside from the obnoxious price point here, my other major quip was with how they upsell children on items for their bear. Asking a four year old if she wants sound for her bear, or a scent, or whatever the extras are - that all cost more money - is insane and unethical. There should be a better system. Sure is an extra 12 dollars going to hurt me? Probably not, but it's gross to me to propose these things to kids that are going to say yes, because they don't understand the concept of money. Ultimately, for the price point I think they should invest in making this a more special experience for children and parents. Think you walk into an actual workshop, there are sounds, you can't see the mall, and as you go through all steps it's a new room with a new environment. Something has to change here to make this a worthwhile destination. I could honestly also see an option where parents and kids pick out what extras they want up front so there is no asking and it's all on your barcode as you move through. The bottom line is that your kid will enjoy it, they are getting a fun new toy! But is the experience of building the bear fun or worth the extra price? Not really. There is a ton of room for improvement here.

We walked in about 6:30 and no one said anything at all.

We came for a half price studio feed which ended up being $4/ person. Aside from the below average customer service the facility itself smelt incredibly unpleasant. It smelt like a sewer the whole time and the smell never left the whole 90 minutes we were there. Pieces range in all prices- I think they're standard compared to other places. I'd come back if the smell wasn't so potent.

Went with my mom on a Sunday about a half hour after opening. We didn't have a reservation, but we…read morewere able to be seated at a table by the paints. 1 - They have tables up against the pottery which is TERRIBLE FLOW to be able to shop the pottery selection. You can't see the options and feel intrusive squeaking by painting customers while they're focused on their pottery. We had some miscommunication on availability of the pottery item we were looking for - coasters/tiles. The employee "helping" sent us off to try and find the item we were looking for rather than assisting us. 2 - Service is bleak at best. These kids don't have any customer service foresight. We were never checked on during our almost 2 hours spent painting there. 3 - Majority of the paint pens were not functioning. Many paint cups were very low volume or empty. No one seemed to be servicing the supplies. 4 - The birthday party in the back space was poorly managed. Back in the day they used to have a host and distribute paints to the kids at the table. I was shocked, and annoyed the kids were allowed to go up and select from all the larger paint selections for the whole shop which continually caused traffic jams for all customers. Being next to the paint area was stressful with lots of people constantly moving around us. On another note, there was no party host from the employees other than getting the kids their pottery. I can't imagine tipping for that "service". 5 - Speaking of tipping - tip apparently is included in any purchase here?? There wasn't an option to enter $0.00 into the CC machine. We had 8 tiles ($7/each - [shocking... and I guess shame on us for not asking how much each cost] + 2 studio fees (a rip off considering we collaborately painted 3 of our 8 items). Our total was $90. HAVING TO pay 15% tip FOR NO SERVICE was bitter icing on a crappy cake. Honestly, not sure I'll be back.

Shout Out to Service Beyond Measure -- All Thanks to Milla…read more Let me be honest. Kids' birthday parties at event venues are usually something I brace myself for, not something I look forward to. I showed up simply to support my friend and celebrate her daughter Olivia, fully prepared for noise, chaos, and a long countdown to cake. Then Milla stepped in and completely flipped the script. From the moment we arrived, Milla set the tone. She greeted everyone with genuine warmth and confidence, the kind that instantly puts both kids and adults at ease. No one was rushed, no one was overlooked. She had a calm command of the room and made it clear she truly cared about the experience we were having. Milla didn't just manage the party, she elevated it. She was patient with the kids, attentive with the adults, and carried a bright, authentic smile the entire time. Not once did it feel forced. Watching her interact with everyone, it was obvious she was raised with strong values and an even stronger work ethic. She went above and beyond in every sense, anticipating needs before they were voiced and making the entire event run effortlessly. I even found myself telling other guests, without hesitation, that I would hire her in a heartbeat. It's funny how sometimes the biggest lesson in customer service comes from the youngest person in the room. Milla turned an event I expected to tolerate into one I truly enjoyed. Service beyond measure wasn't just a phrase yesterday. It was Milla.

They had a larger baby/toddler area than some other play places and a decent size area for older kids. They have a room for planned parties and general seating for parents. I had to fill out some info on an electronic tablet for waiver purposes and then paid. Grippy socks are required, we had our own from another play place and that was fine with them. The attendant who checked us in was polite but the one when we left was not as friendly. It was a bit stuffy in the place like the air was turned lower. There was a camp of kids (about 20) that checked in before us and about half of them were screaming an ear curdling scream for most of the time which was unpleasant for other kids/toddlers/parents. I do wish they would have said something over the loud speaker about not screaming continually. I would say the facility is good for 10 and under mostly.
