she does have a like brown baby doll but does anyone have a idea where I could get a mixed looking doll I was just thinking about getting a ethnic cabbage patch doll even thought my daughter is light with slanted eyes and fine hair i want her to have a variety of dolls not just black or whiteshes only 2
Answer:
The first link is to the "just like you" order page for dolls made by American Girl...the second link is to the opening page for the American Girl website. I think that it is probably as close as you can get to finding a doll that is most like you and your daughters. I am sure they are not the only makers of one of a kind dolls, but it is the only one that I know of. Best of luck!!!

Question : Where can I buy a custom Blythe doll?
My name is Blythe :) And I'd *LOVE* to have a Blythe doll made that looks like me. Unfortunately, the company that makes the dolls doesn't make ethnic dolls. I'm specifically looking for one with a light caramel skin tone and dark, curly hair (I'm mixed).Are there any good sites or artists who create custom Blythe dolls?
Answer:
i suggest you buy a tan-skin blythe doll and you customize it yourself. it's not very hard and you can find anything you might need on hong kong ebay.

Question : Anyone know where I can find an African American (Black) potty doll for a boy?
I've decided to do the learn to potty in a day thing (as seen on Dr. Phil) but I've been looking online for ethnic potty dolls for boys and have found only one. I think its important for my son to be able to relate to the doll. The other option is Elmo but he's pretend and I didn't want to go that route. Please tell me in this day and age there's more out there?
Answer:
Hey there!I have never been in your shoes (i.e. having to potty train a child) but I Googled "black potty doll" and came up with this link... I think it looks like a great website. Hope it helps :o)http://www.pattycakedoll.com/site/480019/page/847836P.S. I can totally understand why you wouldn't want to go the route of Elmo... It does seem like it might be a little confusing to a child.

Question : What are popular retail items for these ethnic backgrounds?
Navtive american FrenchMexican(I'm asking because our school is doing a fundraiser. They are calling it Unity in the Community. They've asked people of different backgrounds to offer up items for sale of different ethnics. Since we are mixed, we have not really concentrated on one background.) Please help us come up with ideas (food/accessories/clothing/dolls/jewelry/ect.) to sell. This is our background. Thanks!
Answer:
Let's see. I live in Oklahoma where there are an abundance of Native Americans, i think turquoise/silver jewelry and seed-bead jewelry would be a hit, especially if native-made, beef jerky, anything made with buffalo meat, fry-bread mixes, native pottery and baskets, native music cd's, artwork such as greeting cards or prints would be good too, natural soaps, candles, and oils, and medicine bags. For Mexican fundraisers try selling spices mixes (fajita, peppers, cumin, etc.) and tamales, brightly-colored pottery and jewelry, Mexican music cd's, and artwork. Don't know much about French, wine and cheese and French breads such as baguettes and croissants come to mind, perhaps sandwiches made with croissants. Maybe some artwork in a French-style.

Question : I'm looking for Ethnic dolls that I used to have as a little girl.?
When I was a child - 30 years ago, I had these six ethnic dolls. Each one was enclosed with a plastic base with a clear plastic cover. I could take them out and play with them. They were probably 8 inches tall and plastic like Barbie dolls. One was Spanish with a beautiful red dress and black lace on the ends of the ruffles. Another was from Holland with blond hair and blue eyes. Each doll had clothing from her culture. Unfortunately, I can't remember the others. I had been saving these dolls for years, but my mother gave them away. It's very possible they were purchased in Syracuse, New York or Kingston, Ontario. Has anyone ever seen anything like this and/or perhaps know where I might find something similar? Thanks for your help.
Answer:
Good childhood memory.

Question : Do u think Palin would be happy if dolls were being made representing her kids, or upset like the First Lady?
NBCChicago.comupdated 9:10 a.m. ET, Mon., Jan. 26, 2009First lady Michelle Obama is not pleased about the marketing of a pair of dolls that bear the same names as her daughters.“We believe it is inappropriate to use young private citizens for marketing purposes,” Ms. Obama’s spokeswoman said.Ty Inc. has released the 12-inch plush dolls as part of the company's “TyGirlz Collection,” introduced in 2007. The Sasha doll has pigtails and wears a white and pink dress with hearts. The Malia doll has a side ponytail and a long-sleeve shirt with capri pants.The Oak Brook-based company chose the dolls' names because “they are beautiful names,” not because of any resemblance to President Obama's daughters, said spokeswoman Tania Lundeen.“There's nothing on the dolls that refers to the Obama girls,” Lundeen said. “It would not be fair to say they are exact replications of these girls. They are not.”Public figures have a legal right to control how their images are used, but Lundeen would not comment on legal issues or if the company's lawyers have become involved with the dolls.“I'm not an attorney. I can't answer that,” she said.The dolls have "real doll hair" and the suggested retail price is $9.99, Lundeen said. The dolls were introduced in early January and a limited supply has been shipped to retailers.Beanie Babies, small plush toys that developed a cult following after they were released in 1994, have reportedly generated sales of at least $6 billion for Ty, Crain's Chicago Business reported.In the real world, 7-year-old Sasha and 10-year-old Malia have been the focus of intense interest. A throng of reporters followed their first day at school. News reports detailed what they wore on Inauguration Day.That fascination will make the Ty dolls a success, said Denise Gary Robinson, president of DollsLikeMe.com, an online specialty doll boutique that specializes in ethnic dolls, toys and gifts.“Girls all over the world, of all colors, will be looking for these dolls. They want to identify with these two girls,” Robinson said.
Answer:
Considering how proud she is of Trig, dragging him everywhere she went, I'd be tempted to say yes. But then, in light of the fact that she won't even release one picture of her grandchild I'd be inclined to say no. So, it's a wash.

Question : Are Barbies and Bratz dolls setting a bad example for young girls?
I mean, none of the non-blonde or Ethnic Barbies is as popular as Blonde-haired blue-eyed Barbie, and they never star in the Barbie movies or books. And Bratz dolls never do anything empowering whatsoever - on the back of every Bratz package, no matter the doll, Karate, Genie, Tennis, Punk, is something tying the theme to fashion. I have some younger nieces- should I be concerned about this kind of stereotyping?
Answer:
no-just dolls

Question : Do you purchase multicultural dolls for your children?
I was just wondering if Caucasian individuals purchase African-American dolls or dolls of various ethic/racial types for their caucasian children. I was cleaning out my attic and noticed that I had a varity of dolls as I was growing up as a child. I can't recall however any of my caucasian friends ever having dolls of any ethnic group other than their own. Just curious!I'm coming to believe that most people have white dolls. Although I had somewhat of a mix, most of mine were white. I specifically remember my Kimberly doll, barbies, babie alive, cabbage patch kids, 2 real baby dolls, etc., all being white. Humm.I personally think that the small amount of multicultural dolls stems from the fact that people don't buy as many of them. Companies will produce what sells and if they aren't selling enough of the product, they won't put many out on the market. If they were more popular and flying off of the shelves like video games the would definitely make more to meet the consumers needs. Low demand=Low Supply.
Answer:
Blacks do tend to have more black dolls and hispanics more hispanic dolls. Most white people do not purchase non-white dolls, but it would not be uncommon for a white child to have a Dora doll, as she is very popular with white children as well as hispanic.It really has to do with the popularity of the doll's character, and there are very few non-white successful characters.
