American Girls

WHO remembers American Girl dolls?

Of course you do.

WHO loved their doll SO MUCH and wished they lived in the time period of said doll.

I DID.

Let's take a look back on the three original dolls from our childhood:

Kirsten Larson: 1854

Kirsten lived on the American frontier, immigrated from Sweden, and went to school in a one room school house. She wore sweet braids in her hair and a blue flowered dress and a red checkered bonnet. LOVE the olden days. I wish wish wish I lived in this time period. Oh the simple days-- livin' on the land.

Samantha Parkington: 1904

Samantha lived with Grandmary in a Victorian mahhhhnsion. She had an awesome 4-poster bed and beautiful golden locket. And she hung out with sweet Nellie and trickster Eddie Ryland.-- Had an super fancy wooden desk with an inkwell. Oh, feathers. How lovely.

Molly McIntire: 1943

Molly. Cute little freckle faced, glasses wearing Molly. Molly lived during the second World War. She wore pigtails in her hair and a traditional plaid jumper. A big dreamer, she was. Lively and loveable: a true American girl.

Which American girl doll did you love and cherish?

I had Kirsten. Meg had Samantha. Becca had Molly.

Oh, the good old days with classic American Girls.
