Build-A-Bear Workshop has sold more than 150 million furry friends since the store first opened, and this year there’s a lot more furry excitement to party about.

Tomorrow Build-A-Bear stores will celebrate National Teddy Bear Day with adorable $5 bears in the U.S., Canada, and the UK. To mark the occasion, guests can make their own limited edition National Teddy Bear Day bear, marking the first time the brand has created a commemorative furry friend at a discounted price. Two additional $5 bears will also be available, including Lil’ Vanilla Bean Cub and Lil’ Hazelnut Cub.

For every $5 bear purchased on Sept. 9, Build-a-Bear will donate an additional bear to one of three charitable organizations: Toys for Tots in the U.S., Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada in Canada, and Childhood First in the U.K.

To get in on all of the National Teddy Bear fun, fans can share their favorite teddy bear memories or pictures of their new friends using the hashtag #NationalTeddyBearDay on social media and tagging @BuildABear. Build-A-Bear will celebrate its 20th anniversary next year, and this year’s National Teddy Bear Day marks the kick-off of more than a year of celebrations.
