Black-skinned dolls, a must-have at La Miocherie

Capucine Noël

The world of toys is slowly but surely evolving and is (finally!) starting to adapt to the needs and diversity of today's children. More and more, parents are looking for toys that reflect the richness of cultural diversity, and above all, reality!

In this article, we explain why we believe our doll selection should include multiple models of black dolls with hair , how these black dolls contribute to inclusion, and why choosing dolls made in Europe can make a difference.

Education and inclusion

Representation and self-esteem, so as not to count for nothing

Children need toys that reflect them and the world around them. Maintaining a universe and standards that do not reflect reality can only undermine self-esteem and the esteem of others.

Having a black doll with beautiful afro hair allows black children to maintain a positive self-image in their play and also helps non-black children understand and appreciate diversity.

Education and empathy, the BASE

In the age of "kindness" in all sauces, we prefer the notion of empathy. Playing with dolls reflecting diverse backgrounds helps children develop empathy and an understanding of cultural and physical differences.
Having different dolls also helps initiate conversations about inclusion and tolerance from a young age, and through play.

    Well produced dolls!

    There is no point in having fine words if actions do not follow. Choosing dolls manufactured in compliance with labor law is still better! Morally speaking but also to ensure compliance with the standards that protect the health of our children.

    Our dolls are handcrafted in Spain, in compliance with European standards.

    Quality and Safety:

    European manufacturing standards guarantee high quality products that are safe for children.

    The materials used are more environmentally friendly.

      Ethical commitment:

      Our Spanish manufacturer has strong ethical commitments, including fair working conditions and sustainable practices.

      Buying locally reduces the carbon footprint associated with transporting goods. It also helps preserve the craftsmanship of a region renowned for its excellence in the manufacture of handcrafted dolls, with realistic details and handmade clothing.

      As you will have understood, for us, choosing black dolls made in Europe is a way of supporting ethical and local production.

      Dolls are not just toys, they can also be a powerful educational tool .
