One of my girls actually played with them for a bit.
Even when I was young in the late '60s, I had a shoe box full of paper dolls and their clothes. I know computers and designing programs have taken over these treasures.....but I still believe the hands-on is more fun. It helps with fine motor skills as they have to cut the tabs and clothes just right. It was always fun to get the mix & match sets where you could put outfits together the way you liked them.
These were a favorite for a generation. Betsey McCall. I've seen small boxes of these at estate sales over the years and it always brings back good memories for me.
Feel free to share these with a young girl and see if you can spark the imagination in a new generation. I really like the weiner dog.
