THE BARATTA BEARS DIFFERENCE!

1. WE COME TO YOU!
No more fighting the crowds at the local mall or pizza place! Your special event doesn’t lose all of its excitement by trying to keep track of your own group of children among all the others out celebrating their special occasion too. We send a crewmember to your location of choice and bring all the materials and entertainment needed to make your event nothing short of spectacular!

2. THE BIRTHDAY CHILD IS OUR #1 PRIORITY!
Many times the birthday child receives the least amount of attention at his own birthday party! Even though it is not intentional, picture the following two scenarios:
A) You spend a lot of money taking your child and his friends to an amusement facility, in which you feed them and hand out tokens as the kids take off all over the place leaving you to wonder if your child is even getting the attention he deserves on his birthday.
B) You host a party in your home. You rush around cleaning and decorating the house and running errands to pick up the cake, food and beverages. You buy little knick-knacks to fill goody bags for the party guests that end up costing a small fortune and let’s face it, most likely aren’t knick-knacks that the guests will keep for very long. By the time the party begins you are either exhausted, stressed (or both!) and end up focusing your attention on whether or not the guests are having a good time more so than the birthday child.
We make sure that these scenarios never happen at our events because we provide entertainment to a captive audience. Our workshops are so much fun that the kids enjoy themselves being together and stuffing their own cuddly friend. The birthday child helps lead the workshop by assisting the crewmember with decisions and receives special surprises throughout the activity. The birthday child is always the guest of honor because she is the reason we are coming together to celebrate this special day in the first place.

3. IT’S EDUCATIONAL!
During our workshops the participants get to hand-stuff their very own cuddly friend. Our animals are safety certified to age 3, so this hands-on experience is great practice for fine motor skills. We also add in an interactive, educational activity or story to make the workshop complete. Many of our enrichment activities include academic subjects such as Art, Science, Literature and more! Many of the activities meet state curriculum standards that guide the daily lessons used in area school districts. A National Board Certified Teacher with 13 years of elementary classroom experience conducts all workshops. So not only does each child get to take home the finest quality, hand-stuffed animal, but he also engages his mind academically!
