When Granza offered to send one of my children an Adorable Kinders Rag Doll, I chose the Landon boy doll for my son. It isn't often that you find cute boy dolls and I think it's important for boys to have loving toys in addition to the rough-and-tumble ones that are usually geared toward them.Little did I know that my daughter would be so taken with him. If I was choosing for her, I probably would have selected a fancier doll like Mari. What my daughter loves about this soft doll is that she can doctor him up. She has placed a cast from her doctor kit on his leg and zipped him into her rolling suitcase which she says is his wheelchair. She has been taking very good care of him getting him on the mend.
I will say that these dolls seem very well made. They are substantial, yet small enough for children to tote around. And the yarn used for the hair is incredibly soft. They are about 18" tall, weigh less than two pounds, and are safe for ages two and up. They are even made in the USA.
There are 26 dolls to choose from, one for each letter of the alphabet. Alise and Mari are the most popular. Like I said, there are both girls and boys and you will find that there is probably one matching your child's ethnicity and individual looks. The Landon doll most matched my toddler.
In an age of tech toys that "do something" and loud toys that require battery after battery, I appreciate these old school rag dolls that seem to take us back to a simpler time when a kid could just use her imagination and play.
