Helping girls give back (Hearts For Hearts Party)

 

What if you could change the world just by buying a doll? You can, with Hearts For Hearts Girls™ dolls! Each doll is a girl that wants to make a difference in her life, community, and culture. Right now, there are eight Hearts For Hearts Girls dolls: Lilian (Belarus), Zelia (Brazil) Rahel (Ethiopia), Nahji (India), Tipi (Laos), Consuelo (Mexico), Lauryce and Dell (both from the United States). Each of them has an important story to tell about life in her country, inspired by real girls who are strong, smart, courageous, and determined to rise above challenging circumstances. When you buy a Hearts For Hearts Girls doll, a portion of the purchase price is donated to children’s causes in those countries. There is tons of information about the Hearts for hearts mission and games for your child on their website: Hearts for Hearts.

I was recently given a chance to host a mommy party featuring Hearts for Hearts dolls. I was given 2 dolls, one for my child to keep and one to give away to a party guest, as well as a bracelet and coupon for each girl in attendance.

We were sent  Consuelo from Mexico City. Colorful and warm, Consuelo provides aid to hungry children who are homeless and live on the streets near her parents´ bakery.

And Nahji who hails from Assam, India. Brave Nahji breaks tradition to bring courage and education to the girls who work in the tea fields of India.

When our package came Pumpkin wanted to keep both dolls but was very excited to have a doll party. We had a fun sleepover party with all of Pumpkin’s friends and family members. The party started off with a doll tea party, and getting to know the dolls. We played the provided passport game. Where each of the girls received a passport to fill out and earned stickers for each doll/country, as they learned how to say Hello in each langue. After our tea party the girls checked the bottom of their cups for the H4H logo and the winner won the second doll. We researched where they came from and how girls in their countries lived. We had lots of fun learning about the different foods from around the world and for dinner we even sampled some. (Hearts for Hearts and Mommy Parties provided a few recipes to try)  As the evening settled down we played games like hair dresser and doll fashion runway. Everyone won a bracelet and after lots of giggling, the girls slept. All the girls couldn’t wait to ask their parents for a hearts for hearts girl of their own. (And the parents were grateful for the $5 off coupon for a H4H doll) Pumpkin chose to keep Consuelo and we gave away Nahji . Both dolls were supper cute and very detailed.

Below is a picture of the party set up and my pumpkin with they doll she decided to keep. As Always there are no other pictures of the other children as per the requests of their parents.

  2. In order to host a "Mommy Party" for the "Hearts 4 Hearts
    Girls" dolls, is a blogger also expected to host parties for and review other products?

    1. You are expected to invite a set # of people and meet certain criteria. click the mommy parties like above to learn more. I think you have to have a blog to host them, but i'm not 100% sure.
