What Madame Alexander Doll is right for your child's age?

The Right Madame Doll for your Child’s Age

A doll can undoubtedly become a child’s best friend.”   – Madame Alexander

Often called the mother of modern doll play, Madame Alexander wanted to create dolls that could be played with and loved for generations. In 1923 the Madame Alexander Doll Company was born to do just that! She believed that giving a child a doll was giving them a playmate and endless playtime adventures. To make choosing the best doll for your child easy, we have created a quick guide to choosing a doll that’s best for your child’s age.

Dolls that are small and soft will be easier for your child to grasp and cuddle. The doll’s clothing should be of a softer material and be sewn on. Dolls encourage interaction and will engage your child’s developing senses.

Choose dolls that can be bathed, fed, and diapered so that your child can mimic everyday behavior that they see around them. And at this age, children develop good finger coordination so dolls that have simple removable clothing will let them practice and improve their motor functions.
