When I was a kid, there weren’t many opportunities to play with dolls of various races and ethnicities. I was so excited when I ran across Dolls Like Me, a store that sells multicultural dolls, games, and books. I definitely want the toys and dolls that Pooky plays with to be diverse and representative of the world in which she’s going to grow up. I think it’s especially important because she’s biracial, but I also think it’s important for children, regardless of their race and ethnicity, to play with dolls (and people) that look like them as well as those that don’t look like them.

These dolls are also wonderful tools to use in talking with children about diversity issues at an early age. Dolls Like Me carries multicultural products for children of all ages.
