Only white dolls?
I purchased these for my daughter's dollhouse and came back to purchase more in other skin tones now that she is starting to notice these things and was shocked to find they only seem to come in white? This is absurd. It's important to us that we have ethnically diverse dolls for our daughter and it would have been nice if the dolls matched. Do better Melissa and Doug.

Wheres the diversity?
I am a 1st time mother, And have since fallen in love with Melissa and Doug And their brand. However I am concerned about the lack of diversity Especially The dolls. It's very important to me that my daughter Learns that all skin colors are beautiful. As I look throughThe dolls On this site I can't help but feelThe Melissa and Doug mission to be a bit hypocritical "... So all children can find Themselves, their Passion, and their purpose"

Great dolls, though a little big for the doll house
Although they're a little bigger than the dolls in our doll house, my granddaughter is enjoying them nonetheless. She's having fun with sis, and gramma, and all the dolls. Though it'd be nice to have a sling for mom to hold the baby... we've left the string on, but she can't get the baby in and out.

Adorable little family
I bought this to replace the set my girls had when they were little. I was really pleased to find this one. My husband built my girls wooden dollhouses and my granddaughter is the perfect age to play with it now. We just needed this little family to get it all going again

Good dollhouse, disappointing doll color options
My daughter got this as a gift and she's enjoying it so far. She likes the elevator, which is a nice touch. We're a Black family, so I came to look for some Brown or Black dolls to use with the house. I was incredibly disappointed to see there were no dolls who aren't White. My disappointment increased when I saw that customers have been asking for diverse dolls for years with seemingly no actual action from the company. I'm thankful for the gift, but will be looking elsewhere for future toy needs.
