Corelle Dolls - Lila

admin | April 14, 2009

While we were on vacation, my mother-in-law gave Buttercup a Corelle doll.  It’s Lila, the interactive model.  She cries, laughs, coos, and makes sucking sounds.  It’s absolutely charming.

Buttercup has never had a baby doll that makes the sounds the way this one does.  She has become an absolute little mother.  If Lila is lying on her stomach, she cries and cries.  (The sounds aren’t loud or jarring – all the same, thank God for the off-switch in the back of the doll!)  Buttercup picks her up and pats her gently to soothe her.  I think the pacifier she came with quiets her down, too.  If I were expecting another baby, I’d say that Lila is a great way to introduce the idea of a newborn’s habits to a sibling.

We already have a bunch of the Corelle doll accessories – the playpen, the stroller, the bottle and feeding sets.  It was a dream come true for her to actually get Lila.  I had bought the Corelle accessories for her other dolls, and now Lila feels right at home here :)  I almost feel guilty about the other dolls being neglected!

My mother in law has had the doll for some time, and she’s been making the most exquisite dresses for Lila by hand.  They’re beautiful – with lace edges and all kinds of beautiful seaming.  So, when she presented Buttercup with Lila – there was a full set of clothes ready for Buttercup’s eager little hands to explore and tug onto the doll.  I really think it’s a great doll baby for her to get used to the idea that babies cry, they need to be fed, and their diapers need to be changed.  Already, we’ve changed the doll’s clothes more times than I can count.

The Corelle product information says the dolls and the clothes she came with are machine washable, and I’m hoping we can keep Lila for a very long time.  The doll has a soft scent too.  She actually smells like a baby.  Apparently, Lila won the Oppenheim Best Toy Platinum Seal, and the Corelle dolls are generally parent pleasers.  She keeps Buttercup busy, and what else can you ask for in a doll baby?

Great points…I would note that as someone who really doesn’t comment to blogs much (in fact, this may be my first post), I don’t think the term “lurker” is very flattering to a non-posting reader. It’s not your fault really , but perhaps the blogosphere could come up with a better, non-creepy name for the 90% of us that enjoy just reading the posts.
