Plus-Sized Paper Dolls

December 4th, 2009

I was working on a post recently that involved some kind of pun about plus-sized paper dolls, and then I wondered if there were any plus-sized paper dolls, and then found this link. Download both the dolls and their outfits from this site, and enjoy!

    Paper dolls obvs aren’t only for grown-ups. I’d like to hear your thoughts on giving these to little girls to play with. On the one hand, yay teaching body diversity! On the other hand, I’ve heard so many people say their current weight problems are a direct result of messages — both blatant and subtle — from adults.

    I think pretty is pretty, if you think the dolls are pretty pass them along.

    I guess I was kind of thinking of them as a supplement to other paper dolls, like you would want to give your kids a wide variety of diverse paper dolls to play with. I wasn’t really thinking about: paper dolls, yea or nay? It’s an interesting question… I didn’t really have paper dolls growing up, just Barbies.

    This is a great way of teaching kids that people come in all shapes and sizes. Thanks for sharing the link.
