I remember trying to cover the spectrum of colors in my daughter's dolls (my kids are biracial too) but I never thought about the boys before. Good to know there are some options out there!
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I didn't know that there were so many dolls for boys and I am glad there are!
ReplyDeleteI love that they finally have "culture" Ken dolls. Thx for linking up Nikki :)
ReplyDeleteKen is looking might hot nowadays! Haha! I love the ethnic versions. We need more of that ;)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great that more ethnic dolls are being made, even for boys? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. I thought I was the only one who would be interested in this. Guess not. LOL
I love this campaign. They also have Barbie cupcakes at Magnolia bakery which is yummo! Interesting post I wonder if Big Bro will want dolls in the future. He loves his Buzz action figure does that count?
ReplyDeleteTakeo isn't a Ken doll. He belongs to the Fashion Royalty
ReplyDeletedoll collection made by Integrity
Toys, and designed by Jason Wu. When I was growing up, there was only one doll company that made fashion dolls, so every doll was either a 'Ken' or a 'Barbie' as generic for 'male' and 'female' but now there are dozens and dozens of companies. Most of the dolls are pretty pricey for the
grade school set, but at least they're there.
