How Lollipops Bundoora Elevated the Party Experience with Build-A-Bear
May
When Lollipops Bundoora introduced Build-A-Bear Workshop through the wholesale program, they weren’t just adding a new activity—they were transforming the way families celebrate milestones.
The Opportunity: Creating Memorable Moments Under One Roof
Lollipops Bundoora saw an opportunity to offer more than just soft play and snacks. As Zeina, from Lollipops Bundoora explains, “It’s the whole package—play, eat, and now Build-A-Bear, all under the same roof.” By offering Build-A-Bear as part of their birthday party packages, the play centre created a truly immersive experience that families couldn’t get elsewhere.
A Deciding Factor for Families Choosing a Party Venue
Offering Build-A-Bear has become more than just an add-on—it’s a drawcard. “It could be the deciding factor between one party venue or another,” Zeina says. Families are increasingly looking for something unique, and the ability to build a bear on-site provides that wow factor. Guests who attend the party are often invited to “come back for the other bears,” helping to drive return visits and increased spend.
Seamless Integration Thanks to Hands-On Support
The success at Lollipops Bundoora was made possible through strong training and support from Build-A-Bear. “We had on-site training from Build-A-Bear at one of their in store locations, and honestly, there were no issues at all with training or integration,” Zeina shares. That preparation has allowed staff to deliver consistent, high-quality experiences for guests. “Customers have even commented on how lovely our team has been during the experience.”
The Bottom Line: A Smart Business Decision That Delivers
By offering Build-A-Bear as an experience, Lollipops Bundoora has created a point of difference that resonates with families and builds loyalty. It’s not just about the bear—it’s about the memories made and the value added.
For Lollipops, it’s a simple formula that works: play, eat, and bringing furry friends to life—all under one roof.
