Store News

Well, our site is starting to take shape and we anticipate an August 1 Grand Opening - just in time for holiday shopping. Our furniture and accessory line is almost complete. We've ordered a wonderful solid wood armoire with matching bed, a wrought iron crib and a clothing rack. We are looking for a quality trunk to match the ensemble and plan to have a special package deal. We are also carrying a coordinated deluxe stroller, umbrella stroller and EZ stroller. Still no luck finding a line of quality biracial cards. Don't forget to visit our site for information on transracial adoptions and building self-esteem in children of color. We'll keep you posted.

Welcome

Welcome to the DollsLikeMe.com blog. Here you can tell us about products you'd like to see stocked, how well a product performs (durability, ease-of-cleaning, etc.), and introduce us to new children's books and articles on raising children of color. We are particularly interested in carrying a greeting card line for biracial children and their families. We hope our blog family will help us find a quality greeting card line. We look forward to hearing your comments.
