5Ballerina wooden "paper" doll by bean bag mom

I bought this for a 3 year old for her birthday and she has been playing with it daily for the past few months! She loves to invent different costumes and sings while playing and dances around with the doll. My daughter has it and plays with it daily for the past couple of years! (she is 5 now).
My daughter loves paperdolls, but they don't last. This toy will last a long time!

5Best Simple Toy by Julie Petrenko

My daughter received this for her 3rd birthday, and she loved it... she put different outfits on her and she played with it forever... what I like is that it comes in its own case so that all of the pieces stay together...

5Fan-tas-tic!!! by Texan Mom

We got this for our not-quite-three-year old daughter last week. She loves playing with it. Even when she's not putting different outfits on the doll she'll play with it, talking to her "pretty 'rina". I would definately tell someone to buy this without any hesitation, it's a great gift for a child.

5Don't get this, buy the Circo version instead by S. Echeverria "msect

This is a great toy, however, as another reader states, Melissa & Doug failed terribly in the container, and it IS important!!!
There are so many little pieces that, you want to keep them in a container you can close, otherwise it is a real pain, trust me.
I found a much better version of this toy, made by Circo (I believe this is a Target brand), the doll is nicer, there are more pieces of clothing AND the box has a sliding lid, BRILLIANT. I actually bought it too and looove it, as for the Melissa & Doug one, I have to find another box to put all the pieces together... not very smart.
With kids, you want to keep things organized and mess-free as much as posible, so GO with the Target brand, it is just as good quality, better design and cheaper!!!

5Great Toy by Amanda L. Davis

This toy is great, but I do wish the box had a lid for easier storage. I have had this over a year, and my kids haven't lost any pieces, but a lid would still be preferred. Other than that, it is a great, fun, and durable toy. My kids really love to put different outfits together.

5Great toy for home or on the go by juliegirl

This magnetic doll with clothes and accessories was the perfect toy for playing on the go, at a park or in the car. The pieces are big enough so you won't be searching all over for the or accidentally suck them up with your vacuum. The colors are pretty and bright. A lovely toy to give as a gift as well.

5Very pleased by Christine Bustard "C

My daughter (4 yrs) has 3 of these little magnetic dolls and she loves them. They are easy to play with and come with many different clothing options. I just wish there was a permanent cover to go over the box to hold all the pieces in place - I've resorted to putting it all in a shoebox to keep little pieces from being lost.

5Cute toy. Buy a container to keep the pieces together. by JudyV

Cute toy that my daughter loves. TONS better than the paper dolls I played with when I was young. My only complant is that the box has no lid. I have pieces all over. Buy a plastic container and you will be fine.

5Amazing: It IS a perfect toy! by MomofTwo

There are other magnet dolls by Melissa and Doug, all equally as good! I wouldn't (like other reviewers) say Melissa and Doug's quality is top-notch on all their toys we had a hammer toy splinter apart and another "wooden" puzzle that was just thin sheets of wood glued one atop another to make each wooden piece chunky and we're constantly glueing that back down as each piece peels up BUT in the case of this toy it's SOLID. Even the magnet holds well to the wood, no peeling up, quite durable.

And you can't beat the Amazon price, free shipping, no sales tax, under $10. We paid $10 at Barnes and Noble because that's where we first saw them and thought the idea was ingenious.

My only complaint would be that each magnet doll comes with a wooden stand she can placed in but because the doll is so top heavy really any slight movement of her topples her out of the base. My DH was thinking of making another wider base to combat that issue.

While we love all their magnet dolls the clothing parts are, sadly, not interchangeable so we have to bag each doll separate. But that makes for easy portablity, one for upstairs, one for down, one in the diaper bag LOL.

And we got these when my DD was no longer chewing on toys, that was about 20 months old and so even though there are smaller parts (the shoes on this one, the gloves on the princess one) she has never had any issues with choking on anything. It has helped improve her coordination, she's now 2 and getting the parts on in the perfect spots.

5Great fun - but no lid on the box makes it tough!! by Michelle Rajotte "Mi

This is a fun toy, my daughter loves to mix and match the clothes. But the box has no lid on it, which means endless searching for the lost ballerina shoe or the missing shirt. I've seen other magnetic dress up sets that have lids, and I would suggest getting one of those instead!

5magnetic dress-up doll by D. Pike "busymom"

This toy is loved by my 4 year old daughter. We have both the Princess and the Ballerina dolls so we can play with them together. Lots of fun changing their outfits, and easy to do. The only downfall is that there is no lid or top to put on when done so pieces can easily fall out and get lost. I wish I had known that before I purchased. I do love the little stand that help the dolls stand up making it more fun to play with.

5Love the ballerina by KatyMom

My 2.5 year old plays with this daily. She loves to create different outfits for the ballerina. The quality is great - just like other Melissa & Doug products. We put the box in a ziplock bag, which keeps the pieces in one place and teaches her to pick up after she's done playing. This will be a toy that is played with for a long time in our house.

5My 3 year old daughter loves this toy! by M. L. Sked "mom of 3

My 3 year old absolutely loves dressing up this wooden ballerina with magnetic dress-up pieces! She'll sit quietly and dress her up in one outfit after another. I just wish it came with a lid for storage. But other than that a great, durable toy!

5Granddaughter loves it... by Nana

I purchased this for my granddaughter and she likes to dress it up. It is much easier than most dolls and as often as she likes to change what she is wearing, this ballerina can change just as quick as my granddaughter.

5Great for a Four-Year-Old by Ruth L. Strickland "

My niece loved this paper doll. It's durable and sturdy. It's just what I wanted for her. She loves it.

5Great toy by E. Cheely "Amazon Ru

My 3 year old niece loved this, she even got her dad involved in dressing the ballerina. Its something like a puzzle in the outfit has to fit together.

5Great toy! by April J. Carman

My two year old loves it. (Yes, I know it isn't for kids under 3, but she playes with it supervised.) Additionally, my 4.5 year old son likes it too. It is very durable and of high quality as you would expect of Melissa and Doug products.

My only complaint (and the reason for my 4 star rating) is the packaging. There is no lid or other means to keep everything together. The box doesn't fit in a regular size Ziploc Freezer bag (my answer for a lot of toys with little bits). So invariably it ends up on a high shelf where it isn't going to get knocked around and spilled.

5Paper Dolls--Improved! by Edie

As a child I remember spending hours playing with paper dolls. Now I can do it again with my grand-daughter, who's almost three. However, this version with wood and magnets is much easier for a young child to manipulate. One caution, we never play with this when her twin sisters--age 15 months--are around, because if they swallowed some of the little pieces the magnets in them would be very dangerous. Overall, it's a great toy, as long as the child is old enough.

5Excellent for young girls by A. Morrison

I bought this item for my niece for her birthday because she has other magnetic dress-up dolls at home. She loves it and plays with it all the time. This item is very cute for the little girls who like to dress-up themselves or dolls.
