Smile Snap n Style Dolls

Does anyone here have these at home. Are they worth it?? They seem cute but are they really easy for 3 year olds to do themselves or do they need a lot of help. How is the quality or will they only last for a week??

TIA

My dd just turned 3 in Sept. She has had these since last christmas. They are a favorite of hers. We have 5 dolls, several extra outfits and 2 of the babies w/ crib and tub and one dog. I would say she plays with them daily. She is pretty rough but these things have held up very well. They are not cheaply made at all. I got a few of them last year at Kohl's on black friday for pretty cheap with my coupon. Otherwise WalMart is your best bet.

My girls liked them when they were 3 and 5. My now 6 year old doesn't play with them much now. Very durable.

my DD loved them at 3 and 4 but had outgrown them at about 5. We were flying to visit the inlaws for a week and I purchased a bunch and had them delivered to my in laws house. It kept DD busy all week and they were a great travel toy, even on the plane. They are really cute and definitely the right age at 3!

DD is 2 1/2 and loves these dolls!! They are well made and easy enough for her to play with. My Toys R Us had them Buy 2, Get 1 Free this week! They didn't have it in the sales paper, but I saw it when I was there on Monday. I picked up another doll and 2 outfits! Great deal!!

My 2yo loves her Linh doll. We have the holiday add-on clothes. She can sometimes get the clothes on by herself - it's not difficult, just have to line them up just right. These are pretty well-made, I would say.

DD loved these from about 2-5ish. They didn't have the dogs or the princess ones when she was smaller or I'm sure we would have had those too. I've given them as birthday and christmas gifts and they've always been well received. I think we bought most of ours when TRU had them B2G1, well worth it.

Absolutely fine for that age. It has become one of the standard birthday gifts we give to 2 year olds. My daughter now 4 still plays with them. I think they have a dress up dog now too!

My DD3 loves them! She got a baby one last Christmas (2 1/2 years) and a girl one at her 3 year party. She has the ballerina outfit. We love them and they are easy to use.

She is getting another baby and girl at Christmas. Also, the Christmas PJ outfit and Rainy Day outfit.

I work at a Childrens Hospital, and let me tell you they hold up very well!! They are also very very easy to clean (a must for us)! We have the dolls, babies and the doggy's!! Love them ALL!!

These are great for little kids (sometimes need help "lining up" the outfit). I went to Walmart and got their brand little doll in a diaper bag looking case to get some additional accessories such as a rattle, potty, bottle, pony etc - they compliment the Snap n Style dolls really well!!

I also wanted to add that these are great for my little kids who have Cerebral Palsy! THey just love the fact that they can choose the clothes and get them on the dolls themselves since Barbie is so difficult for them to dress. My 7 year old neice still plays with them!!

I wish they would make a set of boys too!!

They also have a wardrobe you can store the outfits in.
My 4 year old loved them she got them 2 years ago but has since stopped playing with them. We have a load of outfits and the wardrobe with mirror.
Time to pack them away for santa to have room for new toys.

My dd got a bunch of them with the wardrobe when she was 3. she is 5 1/2 and still playing with them. they look like new. Hold up very well and are easy for the child to do herself. Also, may I add that they are very cute and appropriate dolls and outfits. I refuse to buy Bratz or anything like that because I don't like my daughter to have that kind of role model so I am picky about that. These are very wholesome and sweet.
