I dont have one, but my best friend has one. She loves it. They are really adorable, and creative, and...expensive. hah, I guess the thought is, do you care about the brand of the toy? or the idea behind the toy?

I don't own one because I make my own dolls and stuffed animals. I don't know how well you are at sewing, but I'm not terribly good, and I've made several qualified "ugly dolls" from my own imagination.

They're very nice, but try making an activity with your child and have them draw their own creature? Then you could take them with you to buy some fabrics, felt, soft things like that, bright colours, nice buttons for details, different thread colours, you could show some stitching on the seams with a complimentary colour to the fabric? All these things I think about when making a doll.

I think it would be fun for both you and your child (im assuming you have children) or for anyone else who reads this, If I had kids, I'd do this. But I don't so I just make myself dolls on a whim usually.

hope this helps!
