Baby doll for a boy

[deadheadbelle]

I need help (don't we all ). DS-4 wants a boy baby doll for Christmas. He has never acted like he wanted one before, but my 10 month old DD goes crazy whenever she sees baby dolls. We have spent a lot of time looking at baby dolls & now he has decided that he wants one, too. But he wants a boy doll. I have been looking on line & the only boy baby doll that I have seen that I like is the My Twinn baby "Jordan". The only other option I have seen is to get the Bitty Twins (one boy, one girl) from American Girl and give one to DS & one to DD. Only problem is that I am afraid that the bitty twins may be too big for DD to handle. I had planned on getting her a smaller baby (around 12-14 inches). Anyway, does anyone have suggestions for baby dolls for a 4 year old boy. Also, DD will be 1 year old by Christmas, so has anyone given a bitty baby to a 1 year old?

How about a Cabbage Patch Kid?

What about one of the new Cabbage Patch Kids that they have come out with? They have boys and girls.

We got my son a doll called my buddy. Now this was 14 years ago so I don't know if they make them or something similar any more. There were a few different dolls with different hair color or skin color so the kids could get one that looked something like them. Cabbage patch dolls are also a good choice.

LOL! I was going to recommend the Cabbage Patch too!

I think a Bitty baby is too much for a one year old. OTH, a friend just had a baby and named her Kailey and we're getting her the American Girl of the same name for a present. But yes, for the money you're spending, find something more baby friendly for the little one.

What about one of those Bob the Builder dolls?? They look really nice in the magazine ads.

I bought DS a "baby" it's just a regular baby doll dressed in a blue one piece outfit. He feeds it and changes its diaper while I take care of his little sister. I bought it at FAO Schwarz, I can't find it to see if it has a name.

My DS's also had cabbage patch dolls. They are a great option. If you go to www.toysrus.com and do a searh on cabbage patch kids boy it gives you 20 matches.
