A FULL DAY OF FUN!
A Beary Magical Day Awaits
Looking for fun things to do in Vermont? Spend the day at Vermont Teddy Bear, one of the most unique places to visit in Vermont with kids. From hands-on plush making to magical picnics and factory tours, this is one of the most memorable Vermont experiences for families.
Take a Peek Behind the Seams
Go behind the scenes at one of the most kid-friendly Vermont destinations on a fun, interactive guided tour of the factory! You’ll see how our stuffed animals are stitched, stuffed, and brought to life—with a few fuzzy surprises along the way. Perfect for kids, grown-ups, and every Bear lover in between.
Design the Bear of Your Dreams
Unleash your creativity in our Design Studio, where you can customize your very own plush pal. Choose your fur, fill with fluff, and bring your own plush creation to life. A one-of-a-kind experience, and one of the best things to do in Vermont with kids. You dream it, we help you hug it into life.
Take Home a Memory from Vermont
After you enjoy one of our Made in Vermont tours, swing by the Bear Store to meet your new best buddy. From classic cuddlers to one-of-a-kind plush creations, every stuffed animal is ready to be hugged home—and loved for life. It’s the perfect stop for souvenir shopping, fuzzy fun, and one of the best rainy day activities in Vermont.
