I ...Oh, Alana, what a nice tradition for your blog! I would love to see this museum. I still have lots of dolls squirreled away from when I was a little girl. I was one of those little girls who always had a doll in her hands. What a sweet way for this family to display her dolls.AmyGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10016393315360502122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-12307358245508331332014-12-16T08:51:14.783-05:002014-12-16T08:51:14.783-05:00What a lovely post, Alana!

I started a long time ago in my travels as a way of bringing different cultures home to my nieces. For example, I'd buy several different (simple) ones representing a Guatemalan family. Then, I'd explain their clothing and why the mother was carrying wood on her head and her baby on her back. The cloth prints were so varied and colorful! I started buying the dolls for myself too. And now my nieces are grown and their international collection stays at their parents' house for their kids to clamor after. It has turned out to be a fascinating collection for me, too. Brings back so many memories and it's still a great tool for bringing culture to life! <br />Amy<br />Amy Amy Bovairdhttp://amybovaird.comnoreply@blogger.com
