There’s something about giving a little girl her first baby doll. It’s about more than the milestone. It’s about the belief that little ones who incorporate nurturing into their play today will carry that gentle kindness forever. Bitty Baby’s realistic world guides your girl as she grows, letting her know that life’s best moments start with a caring heart.
The ABCs of Bitty Baby
From feeding and changing to rocking and strolling, her first American Girl® doll comes with hours of play—and so many endearing lessons.
Aspiring to be kind & caring
A lifetime of kindness starts with a little one’s first American Girl doll. Through the act of taking care for a Bitty Baby, children learn the fundamental aspects of kindness. Offering food, singing lullabies, and giving cuddles teaches little ones how to have concern for others. Expressing this love helps build the foundation for relationships in real life, too.
Building a world of nurturing play
Bringing home Bitty Baby opens a door to hours of realistic play. Encouraging little ones to imagine real-life scenarios, from picking Baby’s breakfast to choosing her outfit, helps to open their world.
Playing out familiar moments is also a great way for your little one to gain responsibility, especially when repeating behaviors and play patterns throughout the day. Babies require consistent care, and by taking care of Bitty Baby, children learn the importance of sticking to routines, patience, and planning.
Creating lasting memories together
There’s so much fun to be had together with Bitty Baby! When little ones take their doll along on adventures, they begin understanding and developing precious memories that will last a lifetime. She will someday reminisce with fondness about her first baby doll and all the joy it brought and lessons it taught. And soon enough, Bitty Baby will become the stepping stone to more forever friendships with other American Girl® dolls.
