The summer holidays are well and truly in full swing and no doubt the kids are getting bored already! On top of this, the weather is changing every five minutes and making it impossible to organise anything to do.

Luckily, here at The Bear Works it doesn't matter what the weather is doing outside – all you need to do is build a bear! With dozens of friendly animals waiting to find a loving home, we've got plenty of choice for children everywhere. And once you've chosen your cuddly new friend, the imagination can run wild with plenty of fun and games in store.

The best thing about our build a bear process is that it's so easy and every child will get a unique toy that they can call their own. Whether they love dogs, cats or something a bit more exotic, we promise no child will leave disappointed. And to celebrate our recent Olympics success in the equestrian field, why not take home our beautiful Chestnut Horse? Soft, cuddly and completely adorable, your children can ride off into the sunset with this stunning horse.

And of course building a bear doesn't end with choosing your animal. There are outfits, accessories and sounds to choose from so that the summer holidays are filled with fantastic teddy bear picnics. At the moment our sports outfits are particularly popular, as are our summer clothes – even if the weather outside says otherwise!

When coming to build a bear, you can make it a complete family day out with fun for everyone. Based at Treasure Parks in beautiful Cornwall, there is plenty to do once you've built your bear, providing them with a brilliant adventure to remember their first day in their new family.

So whatever you're doing this summer, why not treat everyone to a beautiful, unique bear that will be with you forever. And don't worry if you can't make it down to us in person as our furry friends are ready and waiting online to be shipped directly to you. And once you've chosen we'd love to know your favourite bear – just let us know below or on Facebook, Twitter or Google+.
