I did however notice that a lot of the tinier dolls appear very ‘mature’ and sometimes unrealistic in terms of clothing, makeup and body proportions. That’s why I was thrilled to receive the Lottie dolls for review and to giveaway to one of my fans.…

Neutralizing Gender Equality In The Toy World – When Will Barbie Get It?

lilsugar

I was compelled to reason with a mother’s emotional post recently and I think that it should be shared with good reason to urge toy companies to rethink the way they market toys today. Scrolling though mommy groups on Facebook, I often do not stop and read the lengthy ones, but this one was different because quite simply it was written almost as if I myself had written it. The authors words and heart felt emotion is something I have related to for the last 10 years of my first…

_____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ So your child was invited to a birthday, and naturally you have NO idea what to get him or her because in today’s society technology rules. Let’s face it, you can’t buy the kid an iPad so what do you do? Search endlessly for something that you will not have to return later on, or in my case settle for a gift card (how boring). I hate being that parent that sends a gift card with their child at birthday parties, because the joy of opening an actual…
