Just in time for the holidays, Build-a-Bear announced they will open workshops inside of some Walmart locations. If you’ve been to a workshop, you know they can get busy. So, the toy store is piloting a new program.

Currently, there are only six Walmart locations participating. Of course, if they go well, Build-a-Bear could potentially put them all over the nation. As to be expected, a new collection has also launched in the six pilot stores called Condo Cubs. ABC 10 says the collection includes baby versions of bears, cats, dogs and rabbits that are $10. And even though I am old I super want a Condo Cub dog now.

Three of the Walmart Build-a-Bear stores are open as of today. The rest will open in the next couple of weeks. There’s even one close to Sacramento, in Stockton on Hammer Lane.
