My Friend Huggles Teaches Values and Virtues

The development of character is woefully diminished if parents are trying to keep up with the Joneses. While worrying about whether little Molly can walk before her playmate or whether Tommy knows his ABCs in three languages, parents occasionally ignore the most important part of life: good morals. My Friend Huggles are life-size friendship dolls that capture kids’ attention and hearts with positive messages. Kids love to hug and snuggle up with them, but they are also educational because each one has its own positive personality trait for children to embrace.

My Friend Huggles was borne from a mother’s need for a tool to help teach her children to adopt a centered moral compass. The My Friend Huggles core philosophy is aimed at nourishing and enriching the well-being of children through a combination of meaningful play and self-awareness.

Each doll has different character-building values associated to it. With every doll is the opportunity to experience the vision of its founders: Blond ballerina Lily is kind; raven-haired Kira loves kindness but finds her best trait is cheer; Sofia has a security lovey she’d be happy to share because she is so generous; Rubi, with her round glasses, is grateful; Bia is sugar and spice and everything nice, with an emphasis on being fair; and Mia is truthfully terrific as she talks of the importance of honesty.

Each toddler-size doll has a seal of authenticity on her hand and has enormous embroidered eyes, a happy smile and removable clothing. Children can stake their claim on their forever friend’s actual heart by signing the Forever Mark on the doll’s chest. This mark states: “I am now your best friend forever! And you are also my favorite.”

The satin ribbon on the back of each doll lists their unique virtues, but it’s not just bragging. It actually connects to the virtues taught on the My Friend Huggles interactive website. As a child demonstrates a particular virtue, the website doles out an award certificate, encouraging children to share their experiences with others to inspire social awareness and change.
