I just read a very interesting article about "bringing up princess" (link below). As a mother of two young girls, I found it very relevant to my own life and life choices. I am definitely guilty of buying princess paraphernalia which in itself is not so problematic. I do agree, however, that we can go overboard and that it's important to balance out the princess stuff with more "down-to-earth" stuff. This is one reason why I love the Go!Go!Sport Girl Dolls that we sell on our website. The founder, Jodi Norgaard has always been involved in sports and for many years has coached “Girls on the Run”, a program which encourages girls to make healthy choices in life through running. While working with the young girls, Jodi had an idea. “I realized there was a need for a positive doll for girls that would be age appropriate, proportioned properly and send a positive message about a healthy lifestyle – physically, mentally and emotionally – through sports.” So check out the article THEN check out the Go!Go!Sport Girl Dolls at www.mom2sarah.com .
