Must have for your clasroom!

It was an exciting day when we received the Mapenzi and Ravi dolls in our kindergarten classroom. My students were so interested in the stories each doll came with. It sparked some great conversation and they found so many connections with the dolls especially Ravi's love of animals. These dolls are truly special! They have brought so much joy to my students. They are a must have in any classroom.

My kindergarten students LOVE Ravi and Mapenzi! During explore time they love playing with these dolls in the vet center and the kitchen area. I love the stories behind each of the dolls and so do my students. I can hear them talking about their stories within their play. These dolls are truly special !

We love the Global Kidizen Dolls!

These dolls are phenomenal, not only are their high quality but they really speak to children. My kids say they are their friends, and constantly refer back to the dolls when they recognize something cultural in real life.
They are always excited to learn more about them, and they teach them to embrace all cultures, no matter how different.

Ravi is my Grandson's Favorite!

When I saw these dolls, I had to buy all of them! The cuddly quality and feel of the dolls is irresistible! My grandchildren love them all, and my grandson is especially fond of Ravi from India because they share a love of animals. Through the story and our conversations about Ravi’s home country of India, we have opened a whole new world of cultural education. It is my hope that introducing this kind of diversity in play will foster our children to embrace people of all cultures as they grow into adulthood.
