We went during Spring Break and knew it would be busier than usual. But we ended up waiting 70…read moreminutes to get inside. Each larger attraction (climbing wall, roller coaster simulation, etc) each had a wait of 60-90 minutes. We ended up spending over 6 hours there and still missing a lot of the exhibits. There were a lot of cool things to see. But the whole experience was expensive, frustrating, and overstimulating. It seemed chaotically organized and inefficient. We wanted to love it, but we just couldn't.

Throughly enjoyed it and so did everyone in my group. I totally recommend visiting when in the Branson area and even making the drive if visiting the Springfield area. Also, I recommend being the "fiver" pass. That's good for the aquarium, the wax museum, the hall of mirrors, the castle of chaos, and the mini golf course.

We made our reservations online and you get a form that tells you to fill out the waiver online to…read moresave time at checkin. Well, the link does not work, so we arrived 30 mins prior to our reservation as instructed in the instructions. You walk into the nice building and serval workers are there yet no one engages with you to welcome you. Finally you get some one at that counter and tell them you are there to checkin. We are told we are the only party in that reservation slot, we get weighed, and sign the waiver. After you sign the waiver nothing happens. They don't tell you anything you just wait. I did mentioned that we tried to sign them online and another lady says oh yeah that doesn't work and we cannot change the email with the instructions either. Seems odd. Well, after you wait with no communication from the staff eventually Maykala came to say she was going to get us geared up. She took our group started to work with us and then a guide Seth came and told her to take a break. He may have been trying to be funny with some of the things he was saying, however it came off as very rude. Out on the lines we had a good time. The first line we went down everyone in our group was turning around and Seth made a comment to my husband and me that our boys were not holding the brake correctly causing them to turn, well when my husband and I went we both turned. The next line Maykala told us to hold the brake a little different and seemed to make a big difference. The problem was Seth was receiving and he told our one son (who has autism) he was doing it wrong which needless to say upset him since he did exactly what he was just instructed to do. Seth would continue to make comments to our boys that I'm not sure if he thought were funny or what, however again it just came across as rude. After the lines you return to the office. No communication if you are free to go or what. We knew from watching a previous group checkout that they have photos you can buy. So, when I went to buy some drink and the lady asked if I wanted photos I told her no one has talked to us about them however, yes we wanted them. Overall it was a fun time. Maykala was amazing! The rest of the crew in the office and Seth needs to learn about customer service.

Even if you don't have little kids, just go and make memories. Take photos too. Due to the heat, they had free popsicles and water (very nice touch!) but there was plenty of shade so that was helpful too. Lots to climb on, slide on, games and fun treasure hunting in the sluice if you're so inclined. Our daughters bought the largest bag of gravel and got huge crystals. We enjoyed the train ride (loved the history lesson) and had a great time in the petting zoo. Well worth it to go visit. Staff was all incredibly friendly snd facilities are spotless.

The first Build-A-Bear opened when I was 12 years old. By the time I heard about it I didn't didn't…read moreget the hype and I was "too old" for teddy bears at that point anyway. Flash forward almost thirty years later and my wife suggests stopping by on a last minute trip to Branson. My 9 year old son seemed really excited to go so of course I agreed to give it a shot. A little underwhelming and annoying at first, the selection was basically one wall but my kid couldn't make what seemed to be a simple decision, I was ready to bolt about five minutes after we arrived. But then, it happened...my kid decided on his new best friend. It wasn't the cool outfits that changed my mind, it sure as hell wasn't the gaggle of screaming kids or the drained faces of almost every other father perusing the same choices over and over and over, nope, wasn't that. It was my kids face. When he finally made the choice to go with a red fox. When his eyes lit up after he discovered a Riddler costume hidden behind a couple Batman outfits. When he stood in line waiting for his chance to bring his new friend to life. Pretty well completely hands on, all except the stuffing and closing up of the plushie, the process of "building-a-bear" was nothing short of magical. Easily my son's favorite part of the trip and we had done it all at that point. He was asked to hold the creatures little stuffed heart and make a wish, the smile on his face when that heart was inserted into his fox, when the stuffing started to fill the little plush body, when he got to select a name and was handed an official birth certificate; these are a few of things that made it all worth it and made me almost forget the dreadful hour I waited for him to decide on a carcass to stuff and what to dress it with. That's the magic of Build-A-Bear, the end result. The way it makes a kid feel to have something so personal and hand picked come to life. To other disgruntled dads who are ready to just "get the show on the road", if you have young kids make the stop. This was definitely worth the time and money.
