Does anyone have a recommendation for a good quality baby doll?
My brother's youngest daughter, who does not live in the US with him will be visiting with her mom in a few weeks. None of the family have met her yet as his ex moved back to Brazil before she was born.
She's apparently dying for one of those "reborn" dolls, which are very expensive. I don't mind spending the money at all, in fact, it would give me great joy to get her something she has always dreamed of having, but it seems they are mostly a collectors item - not really for play and she's only 8-1/2.
He said there are some on Amazon but the ones I see don't have very good ratings and if I'm spending upwards of $100 for a doll I darn well want it to be decent quality.
Can anyone point me somewhere that might have an appropriate type of doll meant for play that is realistic and will hold up well over time?
