The grandaughters and I love HABA dolls. Not cheap, but FunkyMoose do 15% discounts every so often. They machine wash and are sooooooo lovely!!

M has a selection of dolls (provided by grandparents who seem hell bent on getting her to play with girls toys rather than cars... ). She generally seems more interested in the ones that don't do anything, and I prefer them too as it leaves them free to use their imagination more.

Generally as long as they have clothes she can take off, and some kind of pretend nappy she seems happy. We've turned off the sounds/sucking/weeing functionality on most of them!

my daughter loves her baby annabell doll!

We seem to have acquired a rediculous number of dolls with all range of skills - noises, illness, feeding. The one think I have drawn a line at is pooing - I refuse to pay rediculous prices for 'baby' nappies (I know I could do something else but I just know I won't have the patience!).

Of all the ones that do something, I do think Annabel is the best - it gives a bit of interaction but nothing too wild (never have managed to get it to cry real tears). But my youngest is equally happy with a cheap version that only does really basic noises but is much lighter to carry. My eldest will just as often branch off into little tiny dolls or ones with longer hair or.....

Whatever you get them, it's theirs and they'll love it - or they'll ignore it but that's down to them, not the doll and they'll come back to it at some point. Yes at times they'll see someone else with another one and want that one too but that'll happen whatever you buy!

Thanks everybody

Had to decide today as Argos had a 3 for 2 offer

But their bSby annabel

Is version 6 (who knew dolls had upgrades?!) which gets bad reviews

Decided feeding baby born with face that changes colour when

It gets too cold might be asking for trouble given that dd already has an

Ice fetish and is forever rooting in the freezer

Settled on a baby Chou Chou which I think has a soft body which I like

Not opened it yet too look closely

I really like the Hama dolls too ... Birthday maybe
