Best Birthday Gift
My daughter got this for her first birthday and she loves it. She loves to feed the baby with the soft bottle and the carrier makes it easy for her to travel with baby. I totally disagree with the last comment posted about "Save your Money" the items are made small for small little hands, but they are not small enough for choking hazzards. We will be giving this as birthday gifts to other little girls within our family and friends circle.

Soft & sweet!
This will be a fun doll for my little one who will be a year old in a few weeks. It seems safe and soft, although it is a little smaller than I expected. I think my little girl will really enjoy it, although I'm not sure I would say the doll & accessories are a good value.

They call this doll my FIRST baby doll for a reason...
This doll is fantastic for VERY YOUNG children. I bought this for my twins who are just turning one. They are in love with their older sister's baby dolls, which they really shouldn't be playing with due to choking hazards. This doll is appropriately sized for a very small child, with embroidered eyes, mouth, etc. It is a stuffed doll, so no problem if your child sucks on it. Very soft, so nice for giving hugs. The small bottle and teddy bear are large enough that they do not pose choking hazards. Yes, the doll is hard for a child to dress, but the kids I think it is most appropriate for are not yet old enough to rip clothes off and dress it. The bed is also soft fabric, another bonus for the very young kid. I didn't know what to expect when I placed my order and was VERY pleased with the result. Perfect 1st birthday gift. Don't even THINK of giving this to an older (say 2 year old) child.

Save your money.
I bought this doll for my 2 year old. She loves anything baby-related so I thought this would be a nice addition to her toy collection. It's cute and soft, but really LITTLE. It comes with a bed/carrier, LITTLE teddy bear, LITTLE blankie (think washcloth), and a LITTLE stuffed bottle of milk. I'm aware that the dimensions of the doll are listed in it's description, but I rarely whip out my tape measure to see how big it really might be, I just assumed it would be a bit bigger. So, size might not matter for any reason except the following: such a LITTLE doll wears such LITTLE clothes that it is hard to dress and undress. My daughter is ok with ripping off the clothes, but even I have trouble putting them back on, and you could only imagine how much harder it is for the tiny fingers of a 2 year old. She gets very frustrated and screams for me to come and help her (of course, only to rip them off again, and so on!). She likes feeding and burping the doll, but thats basically it. I'd say for the same money there are plenty of others out there. ... Read more

A little girl's best buddy
My daughter, Avery, who is 3 now has carried this dora with her for a year now. Dora's hair is a wreck now, but other than that, she is up for the trip. We also have Boots and Swiper, but Dora is my daughter's pick every time. If we need a toy to entertain her while I have an appointment, for example, Dora is there! This was completely worth the money. ... Read more

The Sweetest Baby doll
I bought this baby doll for my litle girl for Christmas and she will not let it out of her sight! It is very soft, very light weight, pretty and easy to clean. I am terrified of loosing it so I'm buying a few more as backups "just in case". In fact my hubby wants us to give these to all the new baby girls born to our friends and family, he likes it so much! Worth the money, it is a beautiful doll.

Love It!
My daughter - now 14 months - has two of these dolls. One at home and one for day care. She sleeps with them and loves them!
We got one as a "new baby" present and when she decided it was her favorite I bought a back-up. We've washed them numerous times and haven't had any problems. One of the great things about this doll is that she's so light... any small child can drag her around with no problem. Definately a great first doll for any little girl.

Pretty, except......
This is a lovely little doll. My only complaint is that her few strands of hair stick straight up. I don't know why this bothers me so much, but I've tried everything to get them to lay flat. Another thing to consider - this doll has no visible ears, nose, fingers, or toes. I didn't really think about this one way or another before I bought it, but my daughter is learning body parts, and she is very upset that the doll is missing some. It's kind of funny, but something to think about.

Beautiful first doll!!
My brother bought this doll (actually two) for my twin girls. The doll is really beautiful and very soft. I like the fact that the girls can chew on her and I don't have to worry about them hurting themselves on hard parts. She is smaller than most dolls, which is great for little girls. I recommend this doll to parents as a first baby doll.

a great doll for toddlers
My daughter, who is now 16 months old, received this doll for Christmas. It has since become her "lovey". She takes it EVERYWHERE with her. It is very durable, when it becomes dirty I just throw it in the washing machine. It is the perfect size for a little one to cuddle with or to drag around. I am buying a second one in case we lose the one we have. ... Read more

Young caregivers can rock their babes to sleep in thisminiature cradle. Mounted to a sturdy, wooden base, the woven rattan- like sides are actually constructed of heavy-duty paper and cord.Measuring 15 inches long and 10 inches wide, the cradle doesn't take upmuch floor space, and it can accommodate a variety of dolls or stuffedfriends. Whenever freshly washed sheets are needed, remove the pink andwhite gingham bedding and pop it into the washer and dryer. --LaurenBernard. ... Read more

Mommy of 3 year old
I bought this almost a year ago for my daughter's third birthday. She loves to put her 'Hanna' down for her nap. (Her two year old brother does too.) It is not the kind of toy that entertains for more than a few minutes at a time, but it gets regular use. It is very cute. A little fragile, but as long as they are not standing in it, it should be fine. We have not had any trouble. She loves using the little pillow and blanket. A nice addition to a little girls room and bed time routine.

I love baby dolls!!!!!
hi im about to be 13years old and steal love baby dolls and other doll stuff

OK for the price
This is a very functional toy for a child to have in their collection. Though it does not provide hours of entertainment, this toy has become a part of my daughter's daily ritual. She gets her doll in the morning, puts it down for nap, etc. I am overjoyed to see my daughter play with a toy that does not need batteries, only imagination.

I was happy to see that the cradle came with a liner- so many of the more expensive cradles have accessories that must be purchased separately.

It is the not the sturdiest toy, as it is maily cardboard, but if you child is not too rough, it should be OK.

mom of 2yr old "little mommy"
i purchased this cradle and returned it a few days after. the box said "wicker" and the "wicker" was made of paper. the bottom of the cradle is cardboard. i thought about spraypainting it with an enamal paint for durability (because it is so cute) but decided to keep looking for a pretty, heirloom quality, toddler proof doll bed. such a shame, because this cradle is very pretty to look at, but kids under five can be so rough with toys without trying to be.

3 year old loves to rock her baby
I bought this cradle for my 3 year old daughter and she loves it. She enjoys rocking her dolls and taking them out, then laying them back down. The fabric is machine washable. I think this will be the type of toy that will look great sitting in her room when she is 17 years old. ... Read more

Lots of potential but still a disappointment
Once again, a toy fails to "deliver" the promised fun and ease of use.The shower actually works, which was my main concern.I was pleasantly surprised that water did come through the nozzle.However, it is awkward for younger children and the tub is too short and the fish comes off far too easily.While the doll is well-made, it doesn't sit too well in the inflatable turtle.This is frustrating.Also, it would be nice if it had hair that could be washed,It's hard to lather a bald, plastic head.I'm keeping the toy because it's "somewhat fun" but it certainly doesn't deliver as promised or expected.

Fun Little Bath Doll
I bought this for my 3 year old daughter who loves baby dolls. Overall, she enjoys playing with the doll in the tub, washing it, and floating the doll in the little turtle float ring. But in my opinion, the shower feature on this toy is useless. You have to fill the fish toy with water, then connect it to the end of the water tube and squeeze, only to have about 2 tablespoons of water trickle out of the shower. You have to repeat this for each little trickle of water. It would be a lot better if the tube were connected to some kind of squeeze pump feature on the floaty toy (which I've seen before) which would make the shower easier to use and more fun. The doll itself is very durable. The body is filled with tiny plastic beads encased in a fabric lining, which makes for quick drying of the doll, and no mildew (which can be hard to avoid for bath toys). No water gets into the head as well which is also nice (and makes the doll float), so it is definitely well constructed, and seems as if it will be long lasting. Overall, it's a nice bathtub toy for doll lovers, and fun for my little one to practice her mommy skills on. ... Read more

I love her!
I love this doll so much! I loved her som much... untill I gave her a bath! she died! I got another! Tkjn

Can't do without!
Affectionately referred to as "baby" by my two-year old daughter, this is her security item. I am ordering two more for times when the one is in the wash or left at granny and papa's house. It is very durable and fares well in the washer and dryer. The softest and cuddliest baby we have found yet.

Baby Girl Loves it
From 6-months to 15-months, my daughter loves this doll so much she doesn't want to go to sleep without it. It comes with us everywhere. I had to buy a second to keep a clean one handy at all times. I just throw it in the washer on warm/cold or hot/cold and wa-la ... a clean 'Dolly' that withstands the high temperatures.

A perfect doll for a baby girl
I love this doll. My daughter received it when she was a few weeks old. It is very soft and safe for babies so it is great in the crib. My daughter loved it from the beginning and by the time she was 6 months old, she would not sleep without it. She is now almost 4 years old, and she still loves it and sleeps hugging it all night. If we can't find it, she won't sleep until we do. We should have bought two in the beginning because after so many times through the wash (4 years), it is pretty worn out. We also have to wash it quickly so that it is dry before nap time! There is something special about this toy. I have never seen a dolly that little girls love so much. I highly recommend this to anyone with a little girl.

Haven't purchased this doll
Want to purchase this doll for my soon to be one year old daughter but there seems to be a problem. As far as I can tell, she doesn't come in African American. I don't think I need to say more. ... Read more

Soft and sweet
The only negative to this doll is that the rattle is too heavy for the doll. I took the rattle off and sewed up the hand, now she is the perfect cuddly doll she was intended to be.

A Baby's Baby
My 15 month old received this for her first birthday, but it just became appealing to her. Especially the rattle. I guess because her father and I are so affectionate with her, she does hte same to her dolly. It takes a while for babies to get used to playing with a dolly though

We just love this doll
My little girl got this for christmas and at first she wasn't so sure about it and now she crawls all over the house with it. She teeths on it and she loves the fact the baby has a toy too. It doesn't really bother her that the rattle is heavier she has never once hurt herself. So we have no complaints.

Cute soft doll, but rattle is rather heavy for a light doll
My daughter loves this doll, It's soft, although its face is plastic, however the rattle is rather heavy for a light doll, so its off balance so to speak. You can't sit the doll up, etc because the rattle pulls it over. Haven't had any problems with the rattle coming off though, as another reviewer did.

My Baby Loves This Doll
My baby girl loves her baby doll.She got it when she was 6 months and was insantly attacted to it she falls to sleep sucking the bow and her thumb.My only worry was the heavy rattle Which knocked her up top her head but no damage done.She goes everywhere with this doll so this means I wash it weekly(only after my girl goes to sleep with it).I know the care instructions say to put in pillowcase and wash in machine but I always wash the entire doll in the sink and genlty squeeze most of the water out and put the blow dryer on it till its mostly dry and when the dryed completely I return it to my girl.She has had this doll for 4 months and it is in very good condition considering my cleaning method.Its a great doll for ANY girl to have a doll is a doll.I am purchasing a second one just in case. ...

Editorial Review

Perfect as a first baby doll for a little girl, this version of the Annabell doll is greatly simplified from the others. She doesn't suck on a bottle; make gurgling, burping, or snoring sounds; or detect motion. What she does do is rely on toddlers to imagine what her current needs are and fulfill them. Annabell has molded plastic hands, feet, and head with realistic features and a soft, fabric body so she is still cuddly enough to sleep with. She comes wearing cozy white terrycloth pajamas and a hat, which children can remove to practice dressing and undressing, and holding a matching terry rattle. For toddlers who are expecting a new sibling, Annabell is a great "trial run" baby. --Cristina Vaamonde ... Read more

Wonderful Baby Annabel doll
This is the first doll I have bought probably in 15 years and I bought it for my 3 year old granddaughter and she loves it. It is the right size for her to carry around and take care of. We have to tell her the baby needs a nap so she will put it down so she can eat or when she goes home. She likes to take everything home and grandma has to refurnish toys, so this strategy has worked wonderful. Now we are working on the accessories.

NOT like Baby Annabell!
If your child is familiar with the Baby Annabell doll, DO NOT buy this doll instead! This doll is cute, but does NOTHING. It doesn't take batteries. It's just a cuddly doll, which is fine if that's what you want, but if your daughter wants a Baby Annabell (who laughs and cries and sucks on her bottle) than this doll will be a HUGE dissapointment. Her eyes don't even close and she doesn't even come with a bottle. She's a nice size for a smaller child and has a cute face, but that's about it!

Perfect Doll for a Toddler
I saw the review for this doll in Parents magazine and wanted her right away for my daughter's first birthday....but couldn't find her in the stores yet. Finally she is released and my daughter loves her...she hugs and cuddles her, and likes her pretty shiny eyes. My First Annabell is the perfect size and weight for toddlers. ... Read more

FINALLY A DOLL THAT IS MY DAUGHTER'S COLOR!!!!
I just bought this doll for my 4 year old daughter.I found it very difficult to find a doll that had brown hair and brown eyes that wasn't an African American doll.This doll is also very comfortable to carry for a little girl.It isn't too big or too small with a soft body and she smells sweet.My daughter is over the moon with her new 'baby' that looks like her. She carries her new "Baby Anna" (her name for this doll) everywhere and is acting like quite a little mommy.This is a FANTASTIC doll thank you Fisher Price for realizing that not all little girls have blonde hair and blue eyes!

finally a quality doll for a little girl who is NOT blonde!!
Finally, a doll from a reputable company that reflects a different heritage! My daughter is 2 1/2 and I have been looking for a doll who " looks like her" since she was born. I never thought about the colors of dolls when i was growing up (of course i was blonde and blue eyed, so my dolls looked like me) but when i began looking for dolls for my daughter i realized you have two choices in dolls; blonde... or black(and even those are hard to come by) my husbands' sister got her daughter a "brown" doll when she was in mexico, but it was poor quality and broke quickly. I gave up the search and got my daughter a standard little mommy doll, which she loves and carries everywhere! But today i saw that finally little mommy has come out with other ethnicity little mommy dolls and i ordered it immediatly! I am so excited and my daughter saw the screen as i was ordering it, and started yelling "i like that baby!!" so i think she approves. the little mommy dolls are the best and now they get more praise for including other ethnicities, and letting all little girls know that their coloring is beautiful! yeah fisher price! ...

Before Ariel was the regal adventurer of sea and land, she was--just like you and me--a baby. But what a baby! Twelve-inch-tall Ariel is clad in a shimmering turquoise and purple dress fit for, well, royalty. And come nightfall, does she return to her more amphibious, tailed state? Certainly not! It's time for all good little princesses to slip into their turquoise one-piece sleepers and say good night. Wee Ariel also has a brush, a bottle, a toy seashell, and a bib; after all, even little mermaids spit up. This baby-powder-scented doll, with realistic red hair and a sweet expression, will be an immediate favorite with all the young ladies-in-waiting. --Emilie Coulter ... Read more
