Every kid in my house, boys included love to play with baby dolls. We encourage all of them to be nice and gentle to their baby dolls because I really think playing with them helps they grow and learn! A child is never too young or too old to play with dolls:
Babies & Dolls
The roots of make believe begin between ages 12 and 18 months. This means that encouraging pretend play is huge! Encouraging your child to pretend will help in many other areas of development. Toting around the Real Boy has helped Emmitt grasp with his hands and balance better when carrying the doll around!
Toddlers & Dolls
Carlee loves dolls the most. What she doesn’t know is that each and every time she dresses and undresses her dolls or buckles them in their car seats she is enhancing her fine motor skills! When she pushes her doll around in it’s stroller she is developing coordination and large motor skills! Of course language and social skills are also developed through doll play!
Preschoolers & Dolls
By the time your doll fanatic reaches preschool she will understand what type of ‘role’ he or she should play to the baby doll (ex: mom or dad). Language and social skills will blossom as your child shares the baby with other kids and talks for both themselves and the baby!
JC Toys sent us over a La Newborn 15″ Real Boy to play with a few months ago and my kids have shown even more interest in playing with baby dolls because the La Newborn looks like a real baby! From his wrinkled fingers, to his pursed lips to his anatomically correct parts my kids treat him more like a real baby than any doll they have ever owned!
This doll had made it’s way into stores with us multiple times and the look on peoples faces is absolutely priceless when they glance and at first think I am letting my three year old carry my newborn! I love to see them smile or giggle when they realize, upon closer inspection that it is just a baby doll!
If you are looking for the perfect doll for your son or daughter to encourage pretend play- I highly suggest you check out the JC Toys website! They also have baby girls!
