You can paint the dolls for different holidays or themes, and for several types of kids programs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This was a terrific addition to our summer camp arts and crafts program. We used them in a module teaching children how their bodies move. They were able to decorate them with regular washable markers. We had kids from ages 5 to 11 in our group and everyone was engaged. Yes they were a bit tricky to make stand up but that wasn&#8217;t an issue as the kids worked to figure out how to balance them. You could add so many extras to these like yarn hair googly eyes etc. The kids were asking for more to take home. I really loved these.&#8221; &#8211; <em>Summer Camp Director, NJ<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I used these in my Sunday School class for children to make a replica of themselves. They were so excited. This is the best project we have ever done.&#8221; &#8211; <em>Boones Mill, VA<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kids will have a blast coloring or painting these fun wood doll toys!
