Hello, I am borrowing my sister’s account to ask this question (and I’m sure that when she gets back from Scotland she’ll delete it). Anyway, I am 9 and 1/2 and me and my best freind, Lily like to play dolls. We make up new names for the dolls (eg. Chloe might be changed into Jasmine) and Lily and I would like to know of some dolls story role play that we could play. (Eg.chloe goes to the shops and is mugged (but dont use that boring idea)) Can you please -in detail- describe a story line that we could use with our dolls? I am going to Lily’s house tomorrow and I’ll be going to bed 9.30pm tonight. Please help?!
Casey! xox

28|Sep|2009 1hahahah! your sister is seriously going to kill you! why dont you role play this very scene: jasmine pretends to be yasmin and goes into a beauty store and asks the shop person for some teddy bear makeup (pretend its the worst make up imaginable and in bratz world you’d be made a fool out of. and then make them get in a super huge fight when yasmin finds out..
Be totally creative..and maybe think up some ideas of some life experiences you’ve both been in and over exaggerate them..
have fun..and let me know what your sister says!

28|Sep|2009 2Here are some ideas you might want to consider:
* Have your dolls bring a new baby or pet (preferably something exotic like a dinosaur) into their home and struggle with having to feed it; water it; take it to the doctor; etc.
* Have your dolls go on vacation. There’s all sorts of possibilities for adventure and mishaps there. I used to have my Barbies go on vacation all the time, holding loud arguments about travel expenses in their pink plastic Corvette; grumbling over having to clean up dog poop out of the hotel pool; getting buried up to their noses in sand in the Pacific Islands; happily diving for pearls in the South Seas, dining with movie stars in Paris, and cruising Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; etc. upon etc. upon etc.
* Have your dolls plan “the perfect wedding” — in which either everything goes better than they imagined, or everything that can go wrong does (e.g. fistfights break out between unhappy guests at the reception; the bride has too much to eat before the wedding and throws up in the aisle; and/or drunken guests get lost on the way from the church to the reception hall). That’s how my Barbie weddings usually turned out.
You and Lily can let your imaginations run wild even just planning the layout of the church. For example, I made Mr. Potato Head the minister of my church; drew a cross on the back of a cardboard Barbie fashion magazine so he could use it as a Bible; named the church after the martyred potato St. Julienne Au Gratin; and scattered shiny, multicolored confetti on the church floor to look like stained-glass window reflections. And I used modeling clay to make many other Barbie doll props (e.g. food, sand, pearl oysters, and dog poop).
