Edinburgh: Little Troopers at Build-A-Bear for children of deployed parents


Is your little trooper missing a deployed parent?

If your child has a parent currently deployed, you can apply to attend one of our exclusive group workshops happening nationwide. 

Each child will have the magical opportunity to create their very own ‘Little Troopers’ bear at Build-A-Bear — a treasured keepsake to hold close while their parent is away.

📅 Event Details: Edinburgh
Date: 13th August 2025
Time: Approximately 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM
Age Group: Military children aged 4–10 years, each accompanied by one adult

Due to limited availability, spaces will be allocated randomly if oversubscribed. All applicants will be contacted by Tuesday, 30 July 2025. 

Submitting the form does not guarantee a place. Spaces are very limited and will be confirmed directly via email.
