JamboKids

jambokids.jpgI realize that Laurel’s princess obsession is a phase, but I still periodically fret over the homogenous story arcs and aesthetics of those tales. Luckily, there’s an alternative in JamboKids’ line of multicultural dolls and thoughtfully written and illustrated storybooks. Perhaps it’s not surprising that Laurel attached quickly to the (Asian like mommy) Rachel doll, but I was truly stunned to see how the accompanying storybook makes complex concepts such as destiny, ancestry, and acceptance accessible for kids. Not to mention that it’s refreshing to see inner strength - instead of a prince - fuel a happy ending.

Want to win a JamboKids doll + book set*? Here’s how:
