Harriet loves her "babies" but when she saw Baby Annabell® her face was a picture of pure delight and she was jumping up and down in excitement. "Oh I've always wanted a baby with a dummy," she exclaimed.
Baby Annabell® comes not only with a dummy but also a bottle you fill with water (to produce tears), a bib, and, something which brought another smile to Harriet's face, a pendant bearing Baby Annabell's® picture.
Be aware that you need four AA batteries for this doll. Once installed Baby Annabell® becomes almost lifelike in her actions: she cries and coos just like a baby and when she feeds from the bottle, she opens and closes her eyes and her mouth makes sucking movements. When she's finished feeding, a pat on the back brings up her wind in a satisfying burp. Baby Annabell® stops crying when cuddled and patted on the back or by gently stroking her cheek. The fun is seeing the new "mummy" or "daddy" get to know the baby and how she responds.
Baby Annabell® encourages imaginative and role play and will provide hours of entertainment. Harriet absolutely adores her Rosie (as she is now named)
This is a lovely doll for any little girl - or boy - to receive especially to mark the arrival of a sibling. A perfect present for a birthday or Christmas.
