"Play with dolls is of special importance because it is one of the ways through which the child can externalize his own inner being."
Rahima Baldwin Dancy, You Are Your Child's First Teacher

"As the child nurtures & mothers the doll, he is not simply metaphorically, but also in reality caring for himself. It is important therefore, that we offer a doll that closely resembles him/her, not so much in features but rather in proportion. The child's "felt experience" of the doll will remain with him/her. So let's keep the doll simple, proportional & tactilely truthful."
Words by Shariffa Oppenheimer in regards to Waldorf dolls.
