New to the Build-A-Bear lineup is a trio of fashionable bearstars – the Honey Girls. Yet, there’s more to these bears than brightly coloured fur and sassy outfits. The Honey Girls are in a band and share the message of positive self-esteem, friendship and confidence. This new line was designed to encourage children to find their passions and build the confidence to express their individuality.
When the trio of honey bears arrived at our house, shrieks went on and on. All three of my girls love Build-A-Bear and had been eyeing the Honey Girls on a recent trip to the mall and a visit into Build-A-Bear Workshop.
This summer Build-A-Bear will welcome three fashionable friends to its line up — the Honey Girls. With brightly colored fur and fancy glitter outfits this trio of pals is ready to rock.
The Honey Girls band includes Teegan, Risa and Viv. They are each different:
- Teegan is the fearless and bold lead singer {purple cat}
- Risa is the guitarist, and is creative {pink bunny}
- Viv is the drummer; and a talented inventor, baker and gymnast {blue bear}
My three girls each grabbed a Honey Girl and it’s funny how they each instinctively picked the one that was so perfect for them. It’s truly like they were made for my girls!
- Katie, who loves cats more than anything, also loves to sing.
- Isabelle has had interest to play the guitar for some time now, and also beelines straight for the bunnies when at the pet store.
- Sophia is my daughter will all the rhythm in the world, everyone is amazed at just how on-point she is in dance and tumbling.
Of course a band isn’t a band without music! Each Honey Girls band member plays two different songs by pressing a button on one of their hands. Plus when you press Viv’s drum, she plays a drum solo!
Another really cool thing about the Honey Girls is the app! The free Honey Girls Studio app is available on iTunes and Google Play. It has full biographies, music videos, a music video maker and selfie activity, games and the ability to unlock special features too.
All you have to do is scan the star on the side of the Honey Girls Cub Condo {the box the Honey Bears come in}, to unlock the content.
My daughters were content to just play with their Honey Girls, yet when I introduced the app into their play, it was a whole new ‘wow’ for them.
The three Honey Girls friends are available in stores and online. All three characters retail for about $28, yet outfits and accessories are sold separately. So, you can buy just the Honey Girl and collect accessories {good allowance goal!}, or one that’s all decked-out and ready for the stage.
Do you know someone that would love Honey Girls by Build-A-Bear?

My niece is struggling a bit with issues of self-esteem. So I know she would enjoy a positive outlet like the Honey Girls. And the app just makes it all more realistic. Cheers to Build-a-Bear for making these available! This is the direction toys need to go.
