How old to work at Build a Bear Workshop?

I am going to be sixteen in may. I applied for a job to start working in June. I turned it in today. The manager looked through it and scheduled an interview for Monday.
I'm TOTALLY excited. :D
First job.
Firs interview.
I know i'll do great, but my friend texting me saying that she saw that you have to be sixteen years and 6 months old. Is that true? That seems kind of weird...

and talk about toal buzz kill. I'm kinda worried and sad now because i really want that job!

Do you live in the US? Because the manager isn't supposed to hire anyone who isn't 18 or over, it's company policy because you are working with machinery.

I'm sorry.
