So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Lalaloopsy Dolls - A Hot Christmas Toy For 2011 ?

By Olivia Campbell-Price




Dolls seem to be a perpetual favorite when it comes to Christmas presents and toys, above all for girls. You will discover many different types of dolls that appeal to girls of all ages, one such choice that is a reasonably new line is the Lalaloopsy dolls. Many are predicting they will be a hot seller for Christmas. This short article will endeavor to explain why this is true plus what makes them so unlike most other doll toys on the market.

There seem to be two different types of dolls which are trendy these days. The 1st are those that are like genuine babies and behave like a real infant. Thus they may howl and gush and do things a true baby may do. They encourage a little girl to look after them and pretend that they have their own newborn.

Another category are items like Barbie and Bratz dolls which can be more aspirational in philosophy. They're for older girls and in some cases collectors. They adhere to the latest trends and fashions. They encourage girls to act out how they might want their own life to turn out. Barbie are consistently tapping into the latest cultural movements to boot. The latest example of this may be the Twilight Barbie dolls.

Lalaloopsy dolls are unique yet again. They're described as colorful and a little bit silly. If you view them it is instantly obvious that that is the case.

They are very vibrant with a heavy emphasis on the color pink. They also have a cartoon like aspect about them. They have got over sized heads along with button eyes. Their bodies are squashy in the vein of an original rag doll your Grandma may have played with while she was a small girl.

They really are inspired by the old ragged dolls that folks used to produce for their little ones way back when. These handmade toys could be made from left over cloth like old buttons, strands of wool and cuttings from fabrics which may have initially made a dress. And the Lalaloopsy dolls try to recreate this look.

In the case of every Lalaloopsy doll, different materials are used to craft them and, in some magical way that is unique to Lalaloopsy land, this influences their personalities.

Consequently, for illustration, Dot Starlight is formed from an old Astronauts costume. So she is engrossed in the stars and flying. Each of the dolls have their particular pet that also reflects their persona and interests. In reality, you could say the pet is like an avatar to the doll. There are eight characters that all have distinctive looks and personalities.

The Lalaloopsy dolls have a far more innocent look to them than the seemingly chic Barbie and Bratz alternatives which may not be right and proper for younger girls. And they promote fantasy and inventive play as opposed to modeling adult actions like a life like doll.
