Buy a Gift In Case, But Don’t Consider It a Replacement
Well, no, don’t count on your daughter being happy with a Bratz doll if she’s dreaming of setting up her own Monster High School in her bedroom. If you really don’t want to get the doll right now, and are worried that stock won’t be replenished before Christmas, Hanukkah, her birthday or whatever occasion, then buy something else and relieve yourself of that stress.
Meanwhile, keep your eyes open, checking Amazon, Walmart and ToysRUs regularly and if you find that Frankie Stein or Draculaura doll your daughter has been wishing for, then great. You can return that gift you bought just in case, give it to someone else, or give it to her anyway.
Why Bratz Dolls Can Not Replace Monster High Dolls
If your daughter has her eye on her own Monster High doll, then it’s likely that she is a fan of either the Monster High online show or the Monster High book. While both these dolls and Bratz are definitely a step up from Barbie and Ken, one can not be a substitute for another.
Kids want the Monster High dolls because they love the story and the characters, just like the Justin Bieber doll craze that’s going on right now. Fans of Bieber are not going to settle for something in the Barbie line that they can make look like him with a costume change. It’s not just that they want to play with dolls. It’s that they want a doll version of a particular character they already know.
