It's not diamonds that are a little girl's best friend, but rather, her cherished doll. Dolls act as companions and offer a girl a thousand ways to engage her imagination. Years down the road, many women will still harbor an interest in dolls, even long after outgrowing their playthings. This makes dolls an excellent hobby for the avid collector.
Popular dolls are certainly the most accessible type of doll. They are perfect to give as gifts to children and are an excellent starting point for beginning a collection because the lines and series are easily expandable with playsets, accessories, friends, and the like. For young girls, popular dolls are frequently shown in Saturday morning commercials, making them popular amongst the young masses. Of course, once one girl gets the doll, naturally, all her friends will also have to have it. Unlike fashion dolls, which often cost more, popular dolls can be played with with reckless abandon without the fear of breaking or devaluing the doll. Lastly, popular dolls are inexpensive.
What are the popular dolls on the market these days? Is there one that is better than the rest? And how do you choose?
