Origin
In our online store you can filter by “origin”. This origin does not relate to our cuddly toys, but to the animals they represent. We look at the natural habitat of the animals we have made as cuddly toys and put that with the origin of the animal. That way you can filter more easily to animals that you like.
Build a bear
Build-A-Bear is a unique concept where you can create your own teddy bear or other cuddly toy. You start by choosing an unstuffed cuddly toy and fill it yourself as desired. You can then personalize your cuddly toy by adding a sound or scent, and choosing an outfit. Finally, you adopt your cuddly toy by filling out a birth certificate, which officially makes you the owner of your creation.
In Belgium, Maakeenbeer offers the opportunity to experience the Build-A-Bear experience at home. Through our online web shop you can easily put together a package with which you can make your own cuddly toy, completely tailored to your wishes.
