Click here for Forest Friends Lottie Doll

It is nearly that time of year when visions of sugar plum fairies, ballet dancers, fairy tales and all sorts of imaginary happenings and loveliness enter the hearts and minds of young girls everywhere. Enter:  Forest Friend Lottie Doll. She is dressed in a whimsical net layered dress in greens and purples. Her shape and build is designed to represent a young girl (not womanly shaped). She has the look of innocence and delight.

Yes, Christmas is coming and plans are already being laid and shopping planned. A couple of Christmases ago I gave my 5 young grand-girls Lottie Dolls. They absolutely loved them. I also review a couple of the lovely dolls here on Chat With Vera. I highly recommend these as quality products that bring a high degree of loving play to the child receiving them.

I am especially adamant about giving young girls dolls appropriate for their age. I don't believe that the image put forth of glamorous, heavily made-up, seductively dressed, and curvaceously shaped dolls helps our girls develop into girls who have a good sense of self-worth. But providing dolls more appropriate to their age and dolls that encourage development for various roles in life certainly provides quality playtime and time for dreaming about what may be in their own future.

1. Lottie dolls are age appropriate and award winning.
2. Lottie dolls have NO MAKE UP and NO JEWELRY
3. I recommend as great "any time" purchases for girls.
4. Lottie Dolls has a "boy" doll, too.
5. There are great accessories available.
6. The selection is great for choosing the doll most suited for your special child.
7. Lottie dolls are priced  and sized so a child can enjoy a collection of the dolls and a variety of outfits.
8. Lottie dolls make great Christmas gifts.

With her special rock hammer and backpack full of useful gear, Lottie is ready for an adventure at the cliffs by the sea. It is so exciting to think that she might make her own scientific discovery! What will she find? An ammonite? A bone from a plesiosaur? Or maybe even a dinosaur…!

• Olive coloured gilet puffa vest
• Turquoise blue polo short with an ammonite shell design print
• Cargo shorts
• Sturdy boots & Orange and white stripe socks
• Baseball cap
• A rucksack 
• Fossil hunting tools (magnifying glass, trowel and geology hammer)
• Four ammonite fossils
• Special collector cards about the British female fossil hunter Mary Anning
• Notable women in paleontology additional sheet

The Special Edition ‘Gold Collection’ ‘Fossil Hunter’ Lottie doll is a collaboration with TrowelBlazers, an Anglo-American group of women archaeologists, palaeontologists and geologists.

Now what does "Vera" say about Fossil Hunter Lottie?..............

It is getting very difficult for parents (and grandparents) to find toys that are truly age appropriate on the market today. There are too many young children playing with dolls that are buxom (beyond natural proportions), focused on the "get-it-now" mindset, and loaded with glamour and glitz. Children need to be children.

Finally, a toy maker that has approached doll making with the young girl in mind. Dolls designed to look like and be proportioned like that of a nine year old. No glitz. No glamour. No flashy. Simply little girl stuff. And the stuff of little girls is and does include reaching for the stars, thinking upward and beyond, and expressing desires to achieve more and more and in a more varied field of achievement.

Fossil Hunter Lottie is geared up and ready!
Study boots! Cap! Cargo pockets on shorts!
Comfortable clothes.
Backpack to hold the tools of being a Fossil Hunter!

Lottie dolls has a line of positive role model dolls that are so cute and so "playable." I recently purchased Stargazer Lottie and had it sent to my granddaughter. Today, I'm showing you Fossil Hunter Lottie Doll (which will also travel to my granddaughter). Fossil Hunter has the tools of the trade. First of all her outfit is suitable to be out and about digging, chipping, and searching for fossils. The little tools, designed to fit her hands, that will help her dig and chip.

The imaginative play of girls helps set the stage 
for their future desires and ambitions.

Positive Role Model
Award Winner

With the Lottie dolls they will see toys that appear much like they, themselves, do. Young, innocent, and proportioned like their own body. They will have the opportunity to play with dolls that engender acquirable futures for themselves or fun activities in which they themselves would normally participate. A fine example of this is the Gold Collection Lottie dolls of which Fossil Hunter Lottie is one.

Play is the work of children

I can see this gifted at Christmas or birthday time so that special child in your life can play with Fossile Hunter and actually be a digger, rock collector, and fossil hunter! (See my review of Lottie English Country Garden)

It is with delight that I will be able to share this delightful doll with one of my granddaughters!

Award-winning, childlike dolls, that empower young minds and nurture individuality through play
