When children are 18 months old, they need a small, soft, and lightweight doll that’s 12 inches  tall so that they can easily grasp and hold it! The 12-inch Carolle dolls can assume the same  positions real babies do and have sleeping eyes that close when they are put down for a nap or at  bedtime, also like real babies. This baby doll is the perfect doll for imitating what’s happening in a  young child’s everyday life!
