Rating Virtual Dress Up Dolls
On e of my daughter’s favorite things to do is get on my computer and play with virtual paper doll. The kid would sit on my computer chair and play all day if I would let her.
Right now, I usually take her to the Cartoon Doll Emporium website. They have a lot of virtual dress up dolls based on characters she recognizes from TV and the movies. She found her way to the super dolls, which allow you to change backgrounds and elements by clicking through choices on a panel. Most of the dolls use drag & drop clothing. Very cool. I feel confident she can click around the site and not land on anything objectionable. She did click on an ad for the new Barbie Island Princess movie and insisted I buy it for her, but when I talked to her on the phone today she told me her father bought it for her. Yay! One less things she will bug me to buy.
She is almost old enough to be introduced to Webkinz. I don’t have the time to sit online with her and work with her on it, since I use her limited computer time for instances when I need to work quickly to get some dishes done or make an important business phone call. When we get online together, it is usually for a site like Starfall, which is a site designed to help kids learn to read.
Stardoll is another cool dress up doll site, but it acts more like a social networking community and Gigi is too young for that. I’ve got it bookmarked for future use. The Doll Palace also has dolls, but they do not hold my daughter’s attention as well. There is not enough of an interactive quality on the site and the tools you use to personalize things are more difficult.
Overall, though, my vote is for the Cartoon Doll Emporium.
thats cool! i go on those sites to! wow if you want more paper doll dressup games like that then you should go to my website! because it has a page i made filled with dressup and paperdoll games that i found on different sites. you should show her! ok my website is HeavenPink88.wetpaint.com, but the page with all the games is on the side, i think its called dressup games, and theres another page with a penguin paperdoll i made you can print and cut out. yea but these games arnt like, bad because im only 13 with a strict mom and shes ok with them
Dress up games are really fun and nice for kids..they get to learn new things and also it’s a good way of moms and kids to bond together..^^
