So hot, in fact, that it’s already sold out once at major retailers like Indigo! We’re thrilled to introduce you to Cry Babies Storyland Alice, an enchanting addition to the beloved Cry Babies collection that’s destined to bring joy and wonder this year. More than just a doll, Cry Babies Storyland Alice offers an immersive play experience wrapped in a captivating Wonderland theme. If you’re searching for the perfect interactive doll that combines imaginative storytelling with realistic baby play, look no further. This charming Cry Babies doll is quickly becoming a sensation, and for good reason. Let’s delve into what makes this 2021 holiday toy a truly special gift.

A Glimpse into Wonderland: Alice’s Unique Design and Style

From the moment you lay eyes on Cry Babies Storyland Alice, you’ll be transported straight into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll. She truly looks as if she’s stepped right out of a classic fairy tale, ready for an adventure. Her intricate design and attention to detail set her apart, making her a standout among baby dolls that cry.

Alice boasts beautiful blonde rooted hair, which is not only soft to the touch but also perfect for brushing and styling, encouraging endless hours of creative play. Her sparkly blue eyes twinkle with curiosity, reflecting the wonder of a child exploring a new world. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted to capture the essence of her Storyland persona.

Her Wonderland-themed outfit is a major highlight, perfectly blending charm with practicality. Alice is dressed in a delightful ensemble that pays homage to her namesake. She wears a changeable pink long-sleeve hoodie adorned with a sweet blue bow on the hood, adding a touch of playful elegance. Underneath, a crisp white frock features subtle yet intricate card theme details on its trim, hinting at the Queen of Hearts’ court. Completing her whimsical look are blue and white striped leggings and a smart pair of black shoes, ensuring she’s ready for any tea party or chase with the White Rabbit. This entire outfit is not only adorable but also designed for easy removal and cleaning, a feature parents will appreciate.

Interactive Fun: Realistic Cries and Engaging Play

What truly brings the Cry Babies Storyland Alice doll to life is her signature interactive features, designed to mimic the beloved experience of caring for a real baby. Like all Cry Babies, Alice is famous for her ability to cry real water tears, making the nurturing play experience incredibly realistic and engaging for children.

When you remove her pacifier, prepare for a symphony of realistic baby sounds! Alice makes 10+ authentic baby sounds, ranging from gentle coos to expressive gurgles, and yes, surprisingly loud cries. Parents who are familiar with the Cry Babies line know that these dolls can certainly make their presence known when they’re upset! The realism is part of the charm, encouraging empathy and responsibility in young caregivers.

However, IMC Toys understands that sometimes even the most adorable baby needs a moment of quiet. That’s why parents will be absolutely delighted to know that Cry Babies Storyland Alice comes equipped with a convenient ‘off switch’. When Alice’s crying gets a little bit too much, a simple flick of a switch provides instant peace and quiet, a feature sure to be a savior during quiet times or bedtime routines.

Beyond her vocal expressions, Alice is also designed for dynamic play. Her arms and legs are fully movable, allowing children to pose her, change her outfits with ease, and integrate her into countless imaginative scenarios. Whether she’s sitting down for a pretend meal, being carried on an adventure, or simply being cuddled, her articulation adds another layer of versatility to playtime. Plus, a small but significant detail: her pacifier is attached via a ribbon, ingeniously preventing it from getting lost, ensuring fewer tears from both Alice and her young owner!

Care and Maintenance: Keeping Alice Happy and Healthy

To ensure Alice continues to bring joy for many holidays to come, a few simple care instructions will help maintain her features and longevity.

• Filling with Water: The compartment for putting in water, which enables Alice to cry her real tears, is cleverly located under the hood of her hoodie. Before pouring water, always ensure Alice is in the “off” position and her pacifier is securely in her mouth. It is crucial to use bottled water for filling her, not tap water, as tap water can contain minerals that may clog the delicate mechanisms over time. Fill the water compartment about ¾ full to allow for optimal function.
• Troubleshooting Tears: If Alice isn’t crying despite being filled with water, a quick fix is usually at hand. Simply press the button located below the water compartment a few times. This can help prime the system and get her tears flowing again.
• Post-Play Care: To prevent any internal parts from becoming moldy or damaged, it’s vital to empty all water from Alice when she is not being actively played with. This simple step will significantly extend her life and ensure she remains a cherished toy for years.
• Battery Information: Cry Babies Storyland Alice requires 2 AAA batteries to operate her sounds and crying mechanism. While she does come with batteries already installed, these are typically “try-me” batteries intended for in-store demonstration. For the best and most consistent performance, we strongly suggest changing these out for fresh, high-quality alkaline batteries as soon as you bring her home.

The Perfect Holiday Gift: Why Alice is a Must-Have

Cry Babies Storyland Alice is more than just a doll; she’s an invitation to a world of imaginative play, nurturing, and storytelling. Her interchangeable outfit means children can practice fine motor skills by dressing and undressing her, and parents can easily wash her clothes to keep her looking fresh. The thoughtful design, from her beautiful rooted hair to her expressive eyes, encourages a deep connection between child and doll.

As a wonderful addition to the popular Cry Babies line, Alice brings fresh themes and renewed excitement. Her unique Wonderland aesthetic makes her a stand-out collectible for fans of the series and a captivating introduction for newcomers.

This Cry Babies Storyland Alice doll isn’t just a toy; she’s an experience. She fosters empathy, encourages creative expression, and provides hours of comforting companionship. Considering her popularity and her status as a top toy for the 2021 holiday season, we highly recommend securing your Alice doll before she inevitably sells out again. Don’t miss the chance to bring the magic of Wonderland and the joy of a Cry Baby into your home this holiday season!
