Rainbow Brite & Friends Doll Review and Giveaway

                                             

She's back.

Recently, I wrote about how Rainbow Brite, the young character who I remember from my youth (yes, I am dating myself) is back:

"I was excited to see my old friend.  The futuristic looking cherubic girl from my childhood has been updated to resemble a futuristic looking Bratz doll.  She's older, thinner, and possesses more style than the Rainbow Brite of my youth.  Moonglow and Tickled Pink join Rainbow Brite on her new adventure along with Starlite and the sprites (who I adored as a child)."


Through Mom Select, Hallmark sent me a Moonglow doll.  When my daughter saw the package she was so excited.  I wasn't sure how she would receive this futuristic looking doll with blue hair.  She begged for me to open the package so she could play with her.  "Moonbrite" as my daughter, Em, calls her because of the rainbow on the package and her familiarity with the Rainbow Brite video clip has become a constant presence at my daughter's side.  She has also taken up residence in my daughter's bed at nighttime. 

Rainbow Brite dolls are sold at Target and are coming soon to Toys R Us.   You can check out Hallmark's website to see the complete line of Rainbow Brite dolls and to access fun activities to introduce the new and improved Rainbow Brite and her friends to your little darlings.
