Baby dolls for toddlers will always be the classic gift — regardless of whether it’s their birthday or the holidays. My daughter Charlotte was around two when I realized she suddenly had an interest in baby dolls. But there was a big problem. So many of them were scary. Or, they were interactive. I wasn’t looking for a baby doll that could walk and talk — I just wanted something she could hug at night that wouldn’t haunt me in my dreams. Baby dolls for kids vary quite a bit, but if you search long and hard, you’ll eventually find your perfect match.

For older children, it makes sense to want something that can do more. There are baby dolls that talk, baby dolls that pee (which I understand could be a potty training tool, but it still creeps me out a little) and dolls that look just like them. Finally, more companies are starting to create dolls based on realistic children. They’re often called “reborns,” and they’re wonderful for grieving parents, or children who want to experience what a newborn is like without the hassle of actually having one.

When it comes to dolls, there’s no one-size-fits-all. But there are plenty of selections that’ll make any child happy. Plus, with moms everywhere lending their opinions on what the doll was like outside the box, you’re bound to find one you’re happy to invest in.
