Girls can make a difference and change the world…and it starts with a doll!  The Hearts For Hearts Girls, which is a charitable doll line and fashion collection from Playmates Toys, seeks to empower girls to become agents of change in their communities, their countries and around the world.  The line features six dolls that represent real girls from real places all over the world.

 

Each authentically dressed and lifelike doll has her own story to share and is working to change her community in ways unique to her home country.  For example, Consuelo is based on one beautiful real life girl from Mexico who helps hungry children living in the streets of her community. Her parents own a bakery, and Consuelo decides to open a “café” where hungry children can come for unsold baked goods at the end of the day.

 

Girl power is global, and Hearts For Hearts Girls help youngsters see how they can make a difference at any age. Girls can help others in need simply through the purchase of a doll. When you buy a Hearts For Hearts Girls doll, a portion of the purchase price is donated to children’s causes in that doll’s country. Playmates Toys is working with non-profit partner World Vision to make this possible.

 

The Hearts For Hearts Girls come to life with a fully interactive website that lets girls discover different cultures, hear about girls just like them and learn about how they too can make an impact. Each doll comes with a special code that lets girls unlock a free membership to the kid-safe website at www.hearts4heartsgirls.com.  All girls are welcome to visit the website, but the special code that comes with purchase provides access to a larger array of games and also lets girls create their own “my Heart” page which displays things they care about and ways in which they want to help other girls or their own communities.

 

“These dolls make a perfect gift for parents who are looking for unique and interactive ways to expose their daughters to different countries and cultures,” said Gina Beebe, SVP, Girls Marketing of Playmates Toys. “The dolls are also an excellent way for parents to teach their children about the importance of giving to those who are less fortunate.”

 

The 14 inch dolls retail for an affordable $29.99 each and are intended for girls ages 6 and up. The six Hearts For Hearts Girls include:

    • Consuelo lives in Mexico City, aiding hungry children who are homeless and live on the streets near her parents’ bakery. She loves pretty colors — notice her earrings and pretty pink floral headband.
    • Lilian of Belarus is determined to help girls whose parents must find work in the city — and are forced to leave their children with orphanages. Lillian is dressed in a Russian long sleeved blouse and colorful vest with traditional embroidery.
    • Dell lives in Kentucky’s Appalachian Mountains where she creates music and knitwear to share with others who need warm clothing. Dell wears a camouflage cap and a butterfly necklace.
    • Rahel of Ethiopia journeys with her family into the bush to help bring back aid to her community. Rahel dreams of becoming a doctor, which will allow her to make a real difference for people of all ages in her region. She proudly wears colorful beads of her native land.
    • Tipi lives in Laos, and is based on a real girl who shares her art and storytelling with others through dancing, drawing and puppetry. She leads her school in a mural contest in hopes of winning much-needed books for her class.  Tipi’s authentically detailed t-shirt and cropped pants reflect her sweet nature.
    • Nahji hails from Assam, India, and breaks tradition to bring courage and learning to the girls who must work the tea fields. See her beautiful earrings, nose gem, necklace, headpiece, and henna on her hand — all distinct and authentic details.

Included with each doll purchase is a friendship bracelet and a story booklet explaining (at an age-appropriate level) how these multicultural girls live and contribute to their families, communities, countries and the world.

 

To further bring to light each Hearts For Hearts Girls’ culture, additional fashion assortments are available for the dolls.  Youngsters can envision each doll’s story as they play and change their doll’s attire. The basic fashions include Tipi’s two-piece pajama outfit patterned after authentic Lao fabric, Consuelo’s dance dress inspired by traditional Ballet Folklorico costumes and Lilian’s fleecy, furry outfit designed to keep her warm on the cold winter nights in Belarus. The basic fashions retail for $12.99 each.

 

The deluxe fashion assortment includes themed fashions and accessories. The assortment includes Nahji’s costume sari and tea set, Rahel’s school uniform and school supplies, and Dell’s dance outfit and accessories inspired by traditional clogging in Appalachia. The deluxe fashions retail for $17.99 each.
