About the product

Every Hearts for Hearts Girls doll represent a real girl from a real place around the world.   Each has her own story to tell and ideas about how to make life better for her family, community, country, and the world around her.   They want to change the world – and You can help! 

My Thoughts

Recently I stumbled on a very interesting idea on presenting doll of different countries to little girls in our life.   As a family we are already investing in four kids in Dominican Republic and Thailand.   We also take the time to fill special Christmas boxes for other children during the Christmas season and our kids are regularly exposed to how other kids live in various parts of the world.   So when I was offered to review the Hearts for Hearts Girls, I couldn’t resist.   The dolls were so beautiful that I wish I could have had one of each of them.   But I received two Heart for Heart Girls to review – Tipi from Laos and Dell from the USA.

Unlock the loving heart of Laos with our Tipi doll! Like all Hearts For Hearts Girls dolls, Tipi stands 14 inches high and has a poseable, smooth vinyl body, and high-quality rooted hair for hours of doll play. Her eyes are a deep, liquid brown-black and her hair is a flowing fall of gleaming black.

Tipi comes dressed in a charming pale green tee with embroidered detail in bright aqua, and whimsical plaid cropped pants with flower appliqué and lace-edged pocket.

Accessories include:

  • Woven friendship bracelet
  • Bright bangle bracelets
  • Silvery flower earrings with pink crystal centers
  • Fun aqua flip-flops
  • Pink hair elastic
  • Doll-sized hair comb with hair elastic
  • Girl-sized H4HG power bracelet
  • Beautiful mini storybook about Tipi’s

Take home the heart of America’s mountains with our Dell doll. Like all Hearts For Hearts Girls dolls, Dell stands 14 inches high and has a poseable, smooth vinyl body, and high-quality rooted hair for hours of doll play. Her eyes are a deep teal-blue and her gleaming hair is a true brunette brown. A sprinkle of freckles crosses her nose and cheeks.

Dell comes dressed in a summery floral top of corals and pinks, and frayed jean cut-offs of real denim.

Accessories include:

  • Camouflage baseball cap
  • Suede choker with enamel-like butterfly pendant
  • Bright bangle bracelets
  • Silvery flower dangle earrings
  • Slip-on polka-dot distressed tennis shoes
  • Doll-sized hair comb with hair elastic
  • Girl-sized H4HG power bracelet
  • Beautiful mini storybook about Dell’s life

Both dolls are fabulous and the details are breathtaking.   Their eyes are bright and their hair is soft.  I particularly love the expression in their faces as well as their clothing and their accessories.    A little book is also include to tell the story of the doll as well (though this information can also be found on the website.)!  Their website also highlights the real stories of real girls from around the world.  There are also online games on the website where you can have fun with your doll at the same time.   Pretty neat!   I helped Dell make her deliveries in the mountain just to check out the game.

There are six Hearts for Hearts girls dolls available in Canada.   Each and every single one of them are unique and special – Dell from the USA, Consuelo from Mexico, Rahel from Ethiopia, Nahji from India, Lilian from Belarus and Tipi from Laos.    And for every doll  sold a portion of the purchase price will go to World Vision to help children worldwide.  What is World Vision?   It is an organization that is building a better world for children and their families and communities in the USA and around the world.   World Vision does this through education, water and hygiene, microenterprise, community develoipment, and disaster relief.   For more information go to World Vision Canada.

If you have a little girl in your life – whether your own daughter, a niece or your godchild – I strongly suggest that you consider getting  Hearts for Hearts Girls doll for her this Christmas.  This doll will bring not only joy for the child receiving the gift but also will help a child somewhere in the word thanks to World Vision.   

The Heart for Heart Girls are available at your favorite toy store.    I have seen them at Wal-Mart recently!
