Before birdie was born, when Bubba was about 17 months old, we bought him his first baby doll. I wanted to introduce him to the idea of babies, and bought a little bottle to go with it. This particular doll was Corolle Calin, and came in blue pajamas and had a little pacifier to go with it. He smelled yummy and Bubba particularly like the fact that he could put in and take out Calin’s pacifier- since Bubba was still pretty hooked on his own pacifier.
We’ve been hooked on Corolle ever since. I wasn’t going to be a gender specific parent that only bought their boys baseballs and dinosaurs and only pink princess-y things for their daughters. Bubba has always enjoyed playing with dolls, and Birdie likes to play with baseballs and race cars, albeit tucking them into her baby doll crib.
We had an impossible time finding a stroller for him to push his baby around in that was more neutral colored. So, you can imagine how excited I was when Corolle contacted me with the opportunity to offer a giveaway of their new blue/green stroller and blue Suce Pouce blue baby doll. Their campaign “Boys playing with dolls” focuses on encouraging more nurturing and compassionate play in boys so that they will grow up to be understanding adults.
SO! In honor of Father’s Day, one of my readers will win one of each of the following Corolle items:

Blue/Green umbrella stroller for ages 3+

Blue Suce-Pouce baby doll in blue for ages 2+
