At the playgroup the other day, Ian was playing with baby dolls. He has stuffed animals, but no baby dolls so I just ordered one for him. It is a
Corolle Tidoo Baby Doll that is not only machine washable, but can go in the tub. It is a boy baby with boy clothes. I figure it is good for him to develop his nuturing/fathering skills!

My son was 18mos when I got pregnant with my daughter, so I bought him a baby doll (in a blue outfit) with a bib and bowl and spoon, etc. He liked taking care of his baby, and it gave us a good way of talking about the care that his sister would require when she was born. He's 7 now, and while it is more of a sentimental keepsake than something he actually plays with, he still has that doll. He has also turned out to be a great big brother - from day 1 with his sister :-)
