Holiday Gift IDea: Springfield Dolls Plus GIVEAWAY! 12/22

***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review. No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.***

I think I may have mentioned this a few (million) times, but my preschoolers really like dolls. A lot. In fact, if there were a kiddie 12-Step Doll Program, they would be ideal candidates. 

I am happy to indulge their interests, though, so they have a lot of dollies. The problem? Some of them, particularly certain 18 inch dolls, can cost an arm and a leg. I don't know about you, but I certainly cannot afford to buy multiple baby dolls that cost hundreds of dollars a piece. Maybe after winning some fantastic cash sweepstakes or lottery, but not at this current point in time. 

That's probably why I was so delighted to learn about the 18 inch dolls from Springfield Dolls from Fibre-Craft. These exciting dolls are not only beautiful, coming in a variety of different skin tones and hair colors, they are also super-affordable at only $21.99. Yep. You can feasibly purchase all 5 Springfield Dolls for the same price, if not less, than you'd expect to pay for that pricey brand that I won't mention here. 

We received the Emma doll to check out for ourselves. I was delighted with this choice, since my Sophie and Xander also have dark hair and eyes. 

Emma is one of the Springfield Collection Dolls® and has a soft, huggable body, with long, silky brown hair for styling. She’s an 18-inch doll with a soft cloth body and a smooth vinyl head and limbs. Her long-lashed, sparkling, lifelike brown eyes open and close, and she’s posable with jointed arms and legs for hours of play and pretend. Shoes and accessories are sold separately. so don't forget to add them to your order!

My favorite features of Emma's would have to be her expressive eyes and long, shiny hair. The hair is actually very easy to brush, and could even be braided and styled should you desire. 

We also received a spare outfit and matching pair of shoes for Emma. This is great since the pink dress she comes in, while pretty, is a bit on the plain side. My kids definitely enjoy being able to switch outfits and looks on their dolly friends. 

I really love the casual outfit we received. This cute tank top has a light, breezy look to it, and the floral satin ribbon is a nice extra touch. The khaki pants and fur-lined loafers complete the look. 

Xander and Sophie are head over heels in love with Emma, their Springfield Doll. They always say how pretty she is, and they love playing with her soft, silky hair. 

At 18 inches, Emma is a wonderful sized companion for smaller kids like mine, as well as older kids. And since they will fit into pretty much any doll clothing made for 18 inch dolls, the fashion possibilities are endless! 

Xander has been calling Emma his baby sister. (I think he's tired of being the youngest and wants to feel like he's "in charge" of someone, too!) Here he is, hugging his new dolly pal. Aren't they cute together?! 

Overall, we really love Springfield Dolls. They are very well-made, and they're designed to be loved. Their soft bodies make them super huggable, and they can even be spot cleaned as needed. I love the fact that there are so many different clothing and accessory options as well. So if you're looking for the perfect dolls for the little ones in your life, be sure to check out Springfield Dolls. Here, each doll has her own personality, and owning one won't break the budget.
