5 out of 5 stars Amazing: It IS a perfect toy!   November 27, 2008
MomofTwo (TX)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

There are other magnet dolls by Melissa and Doug, all equally as good! I wouldn't (like other reviewers) say Melissa and Doug's quality is top-notch on all their toys we had a hammer toy splinter apart and another "wooden" puzzle that was just thin sheets of wood glued one atop another to make each wooden piece chunky and we're constantly glueing that back down as each piece peels up BUT in the case of this toy it's SOLID. Even the magnet holds well to the wood, no peeling up, quite durable.

And you can't beat the Amazon price, free shipping, no sales tax, under $10. We paid $10 at Barnes and Noble because that's where we first saw them and thought the idea was ingenious.

My only complaint would be that each magnet doll comes with a wooden stand she can placed in but because the doll is so top heavy really any slight movement of her topples her out of the base. My DH was thinking of making another wider base to combat that issue.

While we love all their magnet dolls the clothing parts are, sadly, not interchangeable so we have to bag each doll separate. But that makes for easy portablity, one for upstairs, one for down, one in the diaper bag LOL.

And we got these when my DD was no longer chewing on toys, that was about 20 months old and so even though there are smaller parts (the shoes on this one, the gloves on the princess one) she has never had any issues with choking on anything. It has helped improve her coordination, she's now 2 and getting the parts on in the perfect spots.



5 out of 5 stars Paper Dolls--Improved!   October 3, 2008
Edie (Huntingdon Valley, PA)
As a child I remember spending hours playing with paper dolls. Now I can do it again with my grand-daughter, who's almost three. However, this version with wood and magnets is much easier for a young child to manipulate. One caution, we never play with this when her twin sisters--age 15 months--are around, because if they swallowed some of the little pieces the magnets in them would be very dangerous. Overall, it's a great toy, as long as the child is old enough.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent for young girls   October 3, 2008
A. Morrison (Saint Louis, MO)
I bought this item for my niece for her birthday because she has other magnetic dress-up dolls at home. She loves it and plays with it all the time. This item is very cute for the little girls who like to dress-up themselves or dolls.


5 out of 5 stars Great gift for 3yr old girls   September 23, 2008
Petunia (MA)
I purchased this for my 3 year old cousin. She absolutely loves it. I liked the fact that it is much more durable and easy to play with than traditional paper "paper dolls."


5 out of 5 stars 3 year olds birthday present   August 7, 2008
Stephen France (Trumbull, CT USA)
I love this magnetic dress-up doll. My daughter had a cardboard one which she loved and this one is just so much better, especially the box to keep it all in (a lid would be useful but not essential).
