My daughter loves Build-A-Bear. She loves to be able to get a new “guy” (as my kids call them), create a look and give her new friend a name. So when I heard about their new line, I knew she’d be all over it! This line focuses on drive, passion, talent and friendship. That’s exactly the kind of influence I’m looking for with my children!
Build-A-Bear has just released their newest product line – Honey Girls! The Honey Girls – Teegan, Risa and Viv – met at school and formed their own band. Music brought the Honey Girls together, but their friendship keeps them together. Each of the Honey Girls has her own strengths and talents that help the friends “be brighter together.”
- Teegan is the fearless and bold lead singer.
- Risa is the guitarist, and she is all about music and being creative.
- Viv is the drummer, who’s not only a great friend but also a talented inventor.
The Honey Girls story goes beyond the tale of a music band as it embraces the importance of leveraging each other’s strengths and talents.
Children can customize their Honey Girls character with a special plush star, which represents a positive, aspirational trait that complements the Honey Girls empowerment theme.
- The stars, each a different color, include the traits creative, confident, talented, smart, fearless and strong.
- The stars allow children to further personalize their Honey Girls, making the connection with their new friend even more special.
- Each Honey Girls character comes with one plush star to stuff inside during Build-A-Bear’s signature heart ceremony. However, guests can purchase as many additional stars as they want.
This product line was designed to encourage children to find their passions and overcome obstacles by instilling a sense of confidence and inspiring self-expression. Each Honey Girls character has her own original song along with the group’s debut song titled “Everything is Better.” Listen in for a “sneak preview!”
You can learn more about the Honey Girls by interacting with them and following their journey as a band through their exclusive, interactive Honey Girls Studio App. I wish I could give you a sneak peak of that as well, but it will be available for download in iTunes and Google Play in July. Mark your calendars! Through the Honey Girls Studio App, children will have access to biographies, music videos, a music video maker and selfie activity, as well as memory games and the ability to unlock special features.
The three Honey Girls friends will be available for purchase online starting July 8 at BuildABear.com/Honey-Girls (not yet available) and in-store at Build-A-Bear starting July 10.
