Valentine’s Day is coming, and I think we need to spread the LOVE! I think you all know how much I love Baby GoGo. That is not a secret! I have done a few posts and updates on this cute little baby doll.
Gender neutral and adorable (as well as being the perfect size for a little one to carry around!) Baby GoGo is our favorite doll to date. We reviewed Baby GoGo a few months ago, and I am going to re-post part of my review here (for any new followers, and just to refresh your memories!) But- I have gotten to see Baby GoGo in action at the Chicago Toy and Came Fair (where even Darth Vader was a fan!) and I will have some updated photos for you at the bottom of the post.

This cute baby doll, Baby GoGo, was initially created for the preparation of a younger sibling about to join the family. That in itself is a really good idea- our older children will certainly have some feelings regarding a new member of the family, and helping them learn about babies, how they will come home, what being a big sibling will be like, where mommy will go to have the baby, etc will all go a long way in making them feel included in the process.

Baby GoGo is also gender neutral, which means that it is made for either boys or girls. I can’t stand it when people cringe or judge a boy for wanting to play with a doll or other “girls toys”. There should be no classification between “boy’s toys” and “girl’s toys”- if someone told my daughter she couldn’t play with a football or a truck, I think I would lose it! I feel the same way about macho attitudes about boys playing with a doll. We want our sons to grow up and be good men, loving husbands, kind fathers, involved in the lives of their children- yet some cringe at the nurturing aspects of our son’s behavior, and would deny them the chance to grow and express these emotions and instincts.

About a year ago, Little Man wanted a doll and carriage. We found him an all blue doll after quite a search, ordered online. His uncle made him a stroller, then found a gray carrier when he was out of state and got it for him (he has a good uncle!) I gave him a black diaper bag I had- it’s too big for him to really carry around, but he likes to play with it. It’s hard to find stuff for a sweet little boy who wants to play daddy! (Remember Baby GoGo if you have a son or are expecting– especially if you don’t know the sex!)

Baby GoGo is not pink, nor is it blue. The colors and pattern chosen does not scream “this is for a BOY” or “GIRL”! When we brought it to the Pre-K, the kids all loved it. The kids named it “GoGo”- yep, creative bunch, LOL- and all took turns playing with baby. We read the story, “Baby GoGo Goes Home” and they had lots of questions and stories about their “little sib“s.

I would highly recommend Baby GoGo. It’s a great toy, with a great message. And packaged in recycled materials- Yay! Love that.
Baby GoGo has won lots of awards as well- here is a list!

2010
Creative Child Magazine – Top Toy of the Year Award
Creative Child Magazine – Seal of Excellence
Moms Choice Awards – Honoring Excellence

My thoughts? As a mom and as a teacher- Baby GoGo is a must have for Pre-School kids to about 9. Love it, Love it. Can’t say it enough.

Here are some new photos from the Chicago Toy and Game Fair! How cute is this new Moses Bed? Little Man had one just like it when he was….welll, Little-er!

And a new outfit, too! (Here it is, close up!)
