| 46. Bought two adorable dolls at Target |
|
A "Bratz Kid" and a Disney "Fairy". I just figured two little girls will get a kick out of them.
Both were of indeterminant race, which was cool (we used to take care of a little girl whose father was Indonesian, and it made me realize the importance of non-blond dolls). And neither was dressed like a hooker (not an easy find among the Bratz)
I'm sure games or craft kits would have been healthier, but I just thought these dolls were adorable
