The Wizard of Oz has always been one of my favorite movies. I can remember as a child finding out the day it would be on TV and marking the date on the calender for a gigantic countdown. My daughter has carried  my love for The Wizard of Oz into her own childhood. Okay, I may have had a little bit of an influence on that. When we both heard that Legends of Oz the movie would be coming out it was wonderful to see that same excitement stirred up as she counted down until movie day.

Recently, Madame Alexander Doll Company released their very own set of Legends of Oz Cloth Dolls. Emily had no idea they were on the way, so when the box arrived I could not wait to share them with her. She burst into a tizzy of excitement as she realized exactly what was in that box of surprises. 

Before we even had the chance to actually look at the tags they were all in her all for a huge hug!

Needless to say they would be  any Legends of Oz fan’s dream come true.

Madame Alexander Doll Company created six different 12 inch cloth dolls based on the animated  movie, Legends of Oz: The Return of Dorothy. They are recommended for ages 3+ and are super soft and cuddly and great for play or to collect. My daughter immediately put them to the test acting out all of the scenes from the movie. 

Dorothy has pigtail braids made of soft yarn and cowboy boots! You’ve never seen Dorothy like this before. China Princess doll has dramatic green eyes and her hair styled just like in the movie! The details on her gown are just incredible: little golden specks and tiny red ribbons. Madame Alexander surely gave each one of the dolls intricate details that make them unique in the soft doll circle. As you may have guessed, Glinda was Emily’s favorite. She has a softness in her heart for princesses. Glinda comes dressed in a pink satin gown embellished with lace and puffy sleeves. There are even flowers printed on the gown. Her hair is in a flip and she is adorned with a satin crown! Honestly, she was my favorite, too!

Scarecrow is just a wonderful as you would expect. He is detailed in so many ways with straw yarn hair, red gloves, blue hat and even his official hat. The Tin Man is someone that has always captured my own heart even though he had a problem finding his! Rest assured his heart is right on his chest as the rest of him is made of a soft silver metallic knit complete with a funnel hat and bow time! He is definitely a keeper and will steal your own heart. Of course, I had to save that ever lovable Cowardly Lion for last. He is the biggest of the group and softer than you could ever imagine. His fluffy golden mane holds onto his crown of gold and he definitely deserves to be King of the forest! He even boosts a red bow on his tail.

If you have a Legends of Oz or Wizard of Oz fan in your house, checking out this collection is a must. They are perfect to role play with, cuddle with or just display! They are ageless in my opinion. Little ones will enjoy them just as older children and adults. They are going to make so many children and adults happy!
