Doll house furniture and doll set giveaway

My girls love the doll houses we have. Actually, I love them as well. We enjoy sitting down, playing, acting and pretending with the dolls, furniture and accessories that come with such pretend play situations.

For some reason I always end up being the 'daughter' and one of my girls is always the 'mother'. I so laugh (on the inside), watching and listening to how my girls think a mother should act. Some doll house moments have actually been a real eye opener on how my behaviour really is as a mother and an insight into how my children see me.

We were recently sent some doll house furniture and dolls to try out by Marthese from Romantic Flair Original. Liberty and I sat down on the computer, did a little shopping on Marthese's site, and Liberty picked out what dolls and furniture she would love to play with. We were both really happy with the choice and we looked forward to our treat arriving in the mail.

Here are the two wonderful products we received:

We have a wooden dolls house so the wooden furniture and cute wooden dolls were the perfect addition to our house and collection. They are sturdy and just the right size for little hands to play with. The dolls are simple and I love that they look like what I envision a doll should look like. None of this Barbie fancy frilly stuff.

Once the dolls arrived Liberty carted them around every where with her for the next couple of days. Here are some pictures of the fun they had with the dolls and furniture:

I was really happy that the dolls are able to stand up and stay in place. It is so hard to play with dolls that fall over all the time. My girls also loved that the bed was the perfect size for the dolls and even came with a blanket and pillow to add a little 'real' factor to the pretend play. I had so much trouble trying to take pictures of them playing as their little hands were moving as fast as lightning shifting furniture, moving dolls around and acting out parenting moments.

Marthese is giving away to a Seven Cherubs reader a $30 voucher to her store so that you can pick out some dolls or furniture for your cherubs to pretend play with. You can check out the furniture range here and the doll range here. The $30 amount will cover the price of one furniture set and one doll set if you desire or several sets of each range.
