Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Entertaining and Interactive doll (speaks, sits and grows). Repeatable Play. Speaks English or Spanish. Addresses “Mommy” or “Daddy”. Surprise eye color and hair color makes for a fun reveal.

What reviewers didn't like

Seems highly prone to breaking. Does not include other Baby Alive features such as eating, peeing or pooping. Onesie is not removable, which makes dress up options limited. Swaddle doesn’t stay on the doll very well. Relatively Expensive Toy.
