One World Doll Project is a great gift for a little girl
07 December
Looking for a perfect gift for a special little girl in your life? Prettie Girls! from One World Doll Project are a great choice! While America is increasingly multi-cultural and its moms are increasingly career-minded, its daughters have had no dolls that either look like them or espouse the aspirational values of their parents.
This can be extremely frustrating, especially over the holidays when parents are frantically searching the big toy stores, only to be left with a limited selection to say the least.
As one mom said in a Seattle Times article:
“The stores are jammed with white, blond dolls. There are a few black dolls. But brown ones? Forget it.''
She goes on to say:
“`Today’s kids are proud of how they look and who they are. So it's natural they want dolls that look like them.”
One World Doll Project is solving this problem! Created by Stacey McBride-Irby, who developed the so In Style® dolls, the first line of African-American dolls by Mattel®, Prettie Girls! not only “look like me, but they are like me!,” says Stacey. The African American doll Lena even has “serious booty,” she adds.
There are five dolls in the Prettie Girls! collection – Lena (African American) and Valencia (Latina) which are available now, and Kimani (African), Dahlia (South Asian), and Alexie (Caucasian) will be available early in 2014. Additionally, the first Signature Edition doll in the collection, the Cynthia Bailey doll is also available now for holiday delivery. Cynthia Bailey has been defined as and represents the epitome of a classy, elegant, fun spirited business woman – a great role model for aspiring young girls!
