Come shell-e-brate your bear-y special birthday at The Tinkering Turtle in downtown Burlington.
We have unforgettable birthday packages where kids can make their very own stuffed friend to life, either by selecting a pre-made bear (or turtle!), or creating a one-of-a-kind bear in our Design Studio. Party packages include 2 hour rental in our special birthday room, located at 210 College Street, in The Tinkering Turtle, Imaginative Toys, by ECHO & Vermont Teddy Bear.
For more information, or to book a party, please contact Sabiha Mujkic, Event and Community Partnership Coordinator, at birthdays@echovermont.org or 802.864.1848 Ext. 102.
