5Good for little hands to exploreOct 28, 2010
By tulip "tulip"
Our one-year-old granddaughter likes this toy although she is perhaps a bit young for it. She cannot operate any of the functions yet, but she loves to pull on the shoestrings (don't worry, they are short and firmly attached!) and fiddle with the buttons, snaps, and zippers. She can also just hold it as a doll.

I don't worry much about the so-called educational value of toys, because I believe children are learning "machines" and just giving them fun, interesting toys and making them part of everyday living is the best education. This toy is bright and interactive, and I am so thankful that it doesn't talk, buzz, sing the alphabet, light up, or have buttons to push that call out numbers. Most of the toys now make you feel like you're living on a carnival midway.

2Frustrating!Dec 25, 2010
By Shannon J. "SJR"
I purchased this for my 4 1/2 year-old daughter to help with fine motor and shoe tying skills. Once the clothes come off, they are very difficult to put back on because the paws are so much larger than the openings to the sleeves and shoes. I have help her shove them in. The button hole on the front is too small for the button to fit through, so I had to cut it open wider -compromising the fabric. I am sure it will rip wide open after a few uses. The seam at the seat of the cat is not properly stitched and will need mending. Also, this may be just me, but the cat has no pants or underwear. In my opinion learning to dress involves underwear! The cat looks adorable, but not a good buy for purposes of learning.

1Poor qualityDec 07, 2010
By Tammi Hitt
I bought one of these and the snap broke before I even got it home. I traded for another one. The same snap broke on first use. Also, the button hole in the flower is too small to come off the button, and the blue ribbon that holds the button on is sewn incorrectly, holding the button in place. The toy would be fun and educational if it stayed together long enough to get it to the child.

5happy little girlJul 14, 2010
By oma
I selected this item for my 3 1/2 year old who has been trying to master the art of dressing herself.

It is larger than I had anticipated which is a plus to Angel. She loves it. It sleeps with her and is dragged around the house. The first thing was to undress the cat and now she is mastering the redressing. The buckles, buttons and snaps all seem very sturdy and easy for small hands. Angel is particularly fond of the green fuzzy socks and shiny sneakers with secured laces she can untie but not pull totally out.

We are very happy with the doll and its quality. I'd definitely recommend this item.

5Pleasantly surprisedNov 12, 2011
By L. Mooty
After reading the previous reviews, I was expecting to receive something that would fall apart the first time my daughter played with it but ordered it anyway; the original Dressy Bessy was super expensive, and this seemed like a reasonable alternative.

My daughter is only 2 so she can't really use the fasteners except for the zipper yet, but she's interested in trying and watching us snap and unsnap, button and unbutton, over and over and over again. None of the features seem like they are going to break any time soon, and the button fits through the buttonhole fine; it's a little bit of a squeeze now, but I suspect it will stretch out as time goes by. No complaints here!
