βBuilt a memorial bear at Build a Bear Northlands and Tana was simply incredible, she made the entire experience so pleasant despite it being a difficult time. Sheβs an absolute credit to the business and you can tell she genuinely loves her job and making customers leave feeling awesome. Iβm absolutely over the moon with my bear (as is the recipient) and the whole experience with Tana has made me want to come back and do another. Very special thank youβ

βWonderful experience with the manager, she served my partner and I today and we had such a great time. She was even willing to unstuff the last display so that we could restuff it, which was very sweet! Clearly takes a lot of pride in her job and deserves much appreciation!β
