Product Description

Meet HABA’s 12″ Soft Dolls!

Recommended for ages 18 months and up – HABA dolls are machine washable and stand the test of time!

At just 12″ tall, HABA’s soft dolls are the perfect size for toddlers and will quickly grow into a favorite companion. They have a bean-bag bottom which gives them a slightly weighted feel and allows them to sit on their own without falling. Beautiful Cari has a dark complexion and warm smile. She accompanies her little owner everywhere, right from the very first day.

Special Features

Charming details

Cari has brown skin and long black hair made of Chenille and pulled back into two permanent pigtails with matching hair accessories. Her hair can be finger combed and won’t get tangled or messy. She has a sweet embroidered face with deep brown eyes and sewn on eyebrows, nose and mouth with rosy cheeks. Young children can play safely without any worry about small pieces.

Removable dress

Children ages 18 months or older are beginning to take interest in dressing their dolls “just like mommy and daddy”. Some doll clothing can be difficult and frustrating to work with. HABA keeps it simple and easy with a hook and loop fastener down the back.

Simple Features

Doll Cari has a pink t-shirt or onesie built right into her soft body. Her cute grey shoes with pink lining are sewn on and cannot be removed (or lost).
Note that some HABA outfits (sold separately) include shoes and these can fit right over Cari’s shoes.

Machine Washable!

HABA’s 12″ dolls are soft and cuddly, with a slightly weighted bottom allowing them to sit on their own and stand up to the rough play of children ages 18 months and up. That means they are likely to get dirty! No worries, as HABA soft dolls can be machine washed on cold / delicate (please don’t tumble dry) and come out looking like new every time!

HABA’s doll collection has so much to offer for every age and stage, it’s no wonder they have become a favorite of parents and grandparents alike!

Role-play with dolls is a valuable experience for girls and boys. By reenacting their own everyday lives, imitating the actions of adults and putting their feelings into a play context, they are developing their emotional and social skills. Our first 8″ dolls in special gift tins just might become your “go-to” baby shower gift. Our soft doll collection for ages 18 months and up will delight toddlers and carry them through early childhood. Our 12″ soft doll collection is even a favorite for adult doll lovers wanting to sprinkle a little extra joy throughout their homes.
