Dolls-accessories and more for fun and pretend playing

Dolls-accessories are a timeless source of fun. I remember playing with dolls with my sisters for hours on end. Dress them up. Create stories with them. Make memories by taking them to your friends or out shopping with mom or dad. Dolls can be a comfort to children without siblings. They can become a child’s best friend. Give the gift of a doll to someone today.

Dolls-Accessories— Have a tea party with your favorite doll or stuffed animal!

Bring a friend. Invite your neighbor or your brother. Let’s have a doll tea party! Memories come flooding back when I think about how many tea parties I had with my sisters and friends. Then I watched my kids do the same with their dolls, siblings and friends. Even Nana was invited on occasion!

Kids LOVE to pretend. Playing “doctor” is a fun past time with dolls. Every doll I every took care of got ‘sick’ and needed to see the doctor. Part of the fun with dolls is creative pretending. You could be anything! Let your imagination run wild! 

 

Boys can play with dolls too! Go on an adventure or just have some silly pretend time. Take your doll outside to play, into the woods or on the swings! They are great on a hike or a picnic, and especially on long car rides. It’s nice to have a buddy along with you. Boys need to learn how to love and play nicely with others too. This is a great way to help with that.

Dolls-accessories— help prepare for a new baby!

Getting ready for a new baby in the house is fun and can be stressful for a young child. It is especially important to prepare a toddler or little one for the arrival of their new brother or sister! Help him or her get ready with their own baby doll. Getting your toddler girl or boy a “new baby” of their own helps with the transition and teaches them to love and share when the real baby shows up! I know when my twins were on the way, I got each of my older two girls their ‘own’ set of twin baby dolls. They took such good care of them as I was caring for their sister and brother. It was heart warming to witness. They seem to really enjoy playing and caring for them too!
