Barbie Dolls of the World, making the world just a bit smaller.

You may not know this, but our Barbie club has an honorary member – Natalie, who lives across the world in Namibia, which is in Southern Africa. It’s been so special, getting to know her and her beautiful country they face time calls and package exchange.
Perhaps that’s why I love the dolls of the world so much – not only are they educational, but they really do help us feel closer to people farther away, and they remind us that the world really isn’t as big as it seems. They are all people, and we share the same joys and the same woes..
That’s an important lesson for both children and adults!
These are just a few of the Dolls of the World in my collection, this batch from 1994-1995. They have luxurious fabrics, incredible face molds, and I feel they truly capture what we knew of each country at the time.
Looking for some fun reading? Each box back is check full of information- I adore that part!
Do you collect DOTW? Do you have a friend in a far away place? These dolls can connect you, educate you and delight you, and I’ll continue to collect them as long as I can.
It makes me feel like it’s truly a smaller world, and we aren’t alone in it!
Stay safe, and know you are loved.
