I do want to get her an American girl doll that looks "like her", but none of them really do, so I never know which to get! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-prefer-dolls-that-look-similar-to-them#post-2119592 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 10:08:50 +0000 loki 2119592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i don't have a LO yet but growing up as a blonde i only loved blonde dolls/blonde princesses/blonde characters on tv. sometimes i find myself even having a preference for the blonde girls on like... the real world or big brother... no idea why this is but it's pretty awful! when we have our daughter i'm going to ensure she has a wide variety of dolls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-prefer-dolls-that-look-similar-to-them#post-2119528 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 09:34:27 +0000 808love 2119528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO went through a blond hair phase for a few months. I think it is because they look different than the general population. Now she likes all types. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-prefer-dolls-that-look-similar-to-them#post-2084713 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 11:37:59 +0000 swurlygurl 2084713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well L is only 2, so I haven't noticed much of this yet. I purposefully asked for varied Disney dolls for Christmas (Mulan for L, Tiana for K), but my mom got them the ones that look most like each girl (Tinkerbell for L, Belle for K). L has a doll with purple hair, and a doll with black yarn hair, and 2 baby dolls. She prefers her baby dolls (with no hair :P ), but does love playing with her doll with black hair just as much as Tinkerbell! She probably doesn't have enough self-awareness yet to have any sort of bias though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-prefer-dolls-that-look-similar-to-them#post-2084640 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 11:07:58 +0000 Mamaof2 2084640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 4 and I have noticed that when she watches movies she likes to be the one with blond hair. Her hair isn't blond but its very light brown, mine is dark brown.</p> <p>So, in Tangled she is Rapunzel and I am Flynn.</p> <p>We got an AG magazine in the mail yesterday and there was a whole page of dolls with different length hair and color and skin tone - she only liked the blond haired ones. Then she told me "mommy you like these" and pointed to the ones with dark brown hair.</p> <p>Does your LO do this? </p>
