Language Littles!



A friend's daughter had a Language Littles doll this morning at playgroup, and I had to share- it is adorable!

Language Littles are educational dolls that are both sassy, lovable and fun! Winner of the Oppenheim Best Toy Award Gold Seal 2004, Language Littles dolls speak both English and another language. For instance, the Jolie doll speaks French and English!

Press Jolie's right hand to hear a series of greetings! Press her left hand to hear her favorite colors and the days of the week. Press her knee to hear, "I love you!" Jolie includes a translation booklet for learning & reading along as she speaks.

While this doll is by no means going to make your child fluent in another language, it will serve as a catalyst to introducing a new language. And as many teachers and educators have told me, there is no greater educational gift, besides instilling a love for reading, than to give your child a head start in a foreign language.

Also comes in the following languages:Korean, Greek, Chinese, Russian, Hebrew, Japanese, Spanish, German and Italian. Check out all the different dolls here. What a wonderful way to teach your child about family heritage, too.

Purchase at The Toy Hunt for $32.95.
