Doll for 2 year old almost big sister
Sophie is 2 years, 4 months old. I am expecting my next little one on Sept
7th. I don't know if it is because we have recently begun to talk a great deal about her becoming a big sister, or if this is just something that little 2.25 year old girls are interested in, but she is really into babies right now. In fact, the poor dog is her "baby" on most occasions, being covered in a blanket and cuddled at Sophie's whim, calling Mia (the dog) her baby. I would like to get her a baby doll of her own, but have no idea how to go about this. Should I wait until the baby comes? Should I let her pick the doll out on her own? What kind of doll can you get a 2 year old? She currently has some rag dolls but I would like to get something that looks more like a real baby. Any ideas about this whole thing would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Linda Mommy to Sophie, 2 years and girl #2, due Sept 7th |

Linda Mommy to Sophie, 2 years and girl #2, due Sept 7th When Kira was "into" babies, we bought her a "little" chou chou - by zapf creations. It's has a life-like weightiness to it, doesn't look ugly - although it does have dummy (don't know whether that's a problem for you? - doesn't bother me, but I know some people are anti....)

We bought DD a doll, I made the doll some diapers and bought her the maya wrap child's sling that is like mine. When she came to the hospital to meet her little sister she got the doll all wrapped up in a little hospital receiving blanket that was ready to take home. She loved the extra attention and when I change the real baby she often will change her baby. (she also nurses her baby lol) Good luck ... I have found it very interesting watching my older DD grow into big sisterhood ~Kat Planet Claire has pink air All the trees are red No one ever dies there No one has a head |

Doll for 2 year old almost big sister
Our daughter was 2 yrs 4 months old when our son was born.
We bought her a doll when he was born, and gave it to her from him, as a gift from his big sister. She loved it!! Then when I had to feed my baby, and change nappies, she could do the same. We got her a baby born so she could be a real mum.... I think it helped her accept the second child very easily also. All the best Fiona "GoofeeGyrl" wrote in message ...

But the best dolls we found were some cheap ($5 for a set of 2 dolls and accessories) wal mart dolls. The came with cute bottles that emptied and refilled (I think they are called magic bottles?) and they have their own diapers, etc.. They don't make any noise, but she seems to love them. And when Alegra came home, Kris learned how to swaddle her babies and feed them and everything, so she was able to "help" lol. -- LES! Daddie to Alegra Lee. May 25th 2003!

Zapf has another doll call Zoe, that is 21 inches long (it wears 0-3
month) baby clothes. This doll doesn't make any noise, but its eyes do open and close. Amazon has it. Karen |
