Never before have the worlds of dolls, toy animals, and waterbeds come together as successfully as this. This cute doll has brown eyes, a small tuft of brown hair, and wears a white sleeper suit that features a dancing Snoopy on the front and big black Snoopy ears. To up the ""cute factor"" even further, the doll also holds a small Snoopy rattle. By itself, it would have been a perfectly acceptable toy doll. But things get a little more interesting when you open a valve and fill the baby with warm water, using the included funnel. Is it unconventional to fill a doll with warm water? Sure it is. But young kids are not likely to care about that when snuggling up to a cute and cozy baby doll. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

It sounds a little odd when you describe to someone how the Waterbabies toys work. It turns out most people find it a bit unusual to unscrew the back of a doll, fill it with warm water using an included funnel, seal it up, and then commence to snuggle. But if you can get past that, it''s quite a cozy little toy. This sweet little blue-eyed baby doll wears a baby blue Bedtime Bear outfit and holds a small Bedtime Bear rattle. After the water is filled, the doll operates like a standard heavy-duty water bottle, providing warmth and comfort. We found it easy to fill the doll and had no problems with leakage. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

Water Babies give little girls the chance to pamper what feels like a real baby of their very own--without the need to develop a diaper-changing regimen. The doll's body is made of soft rubber, nicely detailed with a teensy belly button and little dimples on the knees. An included funnel screws into a plug in the doll's back so that she can be filled with lukewarm water. Once you manage to get the air out of the doll and put her outfit back on--which is a challenge--she's ready for cuddling. Dressed like Tigger from the Winnie the Pooh gang, this Water Baby steals the show with a long striped tail, footsies that are stuffed to hold their shape (even though the doll's feet are small), and a hood with two tiny ears. There's also an included plastic rattle that's shaped like the famous tiger, who sits with one hand on his belly and the other on his chin. The doll's outfit is made of 100 percent polyester, surface washable only, and is held in place with Velcro. The manufacturer recommends that the water inside the doll be changed at least once per week. --David Morel ... Read more

Her interest lasted about 2 days
My daughter recieved this as a christmas gift. We were wondering what the heck is this thing? We filled it up with water, no small task, by the way, you have to change the water inside the doll every couple of days according to manf. directions, and my daughter lugged this now very heavy doll for about two hours. She played with it once or twice the same week, and hasn't touched it since, and let me tell you, my girl loves her babies!! ... Read more

Just like the Care Bear of the same name, baby Friend Bear has a happy-go-lucky, fun-loving demeanor. This sweet little doll combines two popular cuddly toys--Waterbabies and Care Bears--into one. Like other Waterbaby dolls, this one can be filled with warm water so she feels cozy and heavy like a real baby. Her thick rubberized body securely holds the water and a tight rubber plug in Friend Bear’s back prevents leaking so kids can snuggle in close to her. For added coziness, this baby comes in a fleecy yellow bear suit with Friend Bear’s signature flower symbol emblazoned on the front. This Friend Bear Waterbaby comes with her own mini bear-shaped rattle and a plastic funnel for filling her with water. --Cristina Vaamonde ... Read more

Great toy for little ones
We gave this adorable toy to our 3yo daughter for her birthday and she loves it. She loves the Care Bears and dolls. I am still shocked that the water has yet to leak all over the house. Seems truly leak proof thus far. Pretty heavy once the water is added.

My daughter loves this doll!
I bought this doll for my five year old daughter's birthday, and she loves it! The doll feels like a real baby with the water in it, and although I was worried about water leaking, it seems really leakproof. The outfit for the baby is cute, and so is the Care Bear rattle. This doll satisified my daughter's love of baby dolls and Care Bears in one gift. ... Read more
