I wish I could turn of the toy-seeking portion of my brain. Our toy room and closets are packed with the reasons why. But I can’t, so I at least have started looking for more compact, creative toys. I recently purchased this for my daughter and loved it so much that I’ve purchased it three more times as a gift.
The Fabulous Book of Paper Dolls by Klutz is a completely self-contained, bound book containing sheets of punch out paper dolls, outfits, and acces
sories. No scissors required. Really! The different items punch out cleanly and easily without tearing. After all, what would be more of a buzz-kill to than trying to put clothing on a paper doll with no head and a ripped arm, right?
Another brilliant part of this book’s design is the fact that all the clothing and accessories stick onto the little paper dolls with reusable, double-sided adhesive stickers. These stickers come in all sorts of shapes and sizes (small dots, large dots, squares, rectangles, crescents, hearts) to fit the different parts of the dolls. Best of all, when you eventually run out of these adhesive stickers, you can re-order these separately from Klutz.
Once the multi-ethnic and multi-gender dolls are dressed up, your child can flip through the book to select a background, prop it open on the table, and let his/her imagination take flight!
Clean up is a snap as well - When playtime is over, the last page of the book has an armoire with pockets for your clothing and accessories that velcros shut! Brilliant!!
This is a fabulous option if you need to start thinking of gifts for the holidays. It’s not only reasonably priced at just over $15, but easy to ship and store. The parents will love this almost as much as the lucky gift recipient!
