HABA Cari 12-inch Black Baby Doll with Pigtails — Removable Green Dress & Machine Washable

Meet Cari: A soft, durable companion for little hands

The HABA Cari 12-inch black baby doll brings a friendly presence to playtime with a gentle embroidered face, rosy cheeks, and soft black hair styled in classic pigtails. Sized for toddlers, Cari is easy to hold, cuddle, and carry through everyday pretend play, helping little ones explore care, storytelling, and imaginative routine moments.

What makes Cari a thoughtful choice for toddlers

Cari is designed with practical details that invite hands-on interaction. Her removable green dress uses a simple hook-and-loop fastener, while gray shoes are sewn on to stay put during active play. A playful beanbag bottom helps Cari sit upright, enabling stable scenes when kids narrate stories or practice caregiving roles.

Ideal for ages 18 months and up, Cari fits into a wide range of pretend play scenarios—from tea parties to bedtime routines, from doctor visits to travel adventures. The doll’s plush construction offers a comforting tactile experience and stands up to the busy rhythm of toddler days, encouraging gentle care, naming emotions, and cooperative play with grownups and peers alike.

Care, durability, and everyday use

Built with attention to detail, Cari is a durable companion that can accompany a child through years of small-world play. The doll is machine washable on cold, making cleanup straightforward after snack-time spill moments or cozy nest sessions. (Do not spin dry.)
