I was at ASDA in Slough yesterday and spotted this whilst browsing in the toy department. Since we're looking for more multi-cultural resources in particular and dolls in particular, this leapt out at me. I was unimpressed when I saw it (and because of the noise levels I couldn't hear the doll speak when I pressed its feet), but I just did a quick search before bedtime and saw that they have four different models available to represent Asian, Oriental and European cultures. Apparently you can buy different language cartridges too, and from what I can see they are aimed at helping children learn different languages, or at the very least, hear their home languages spoken…

I liked the look of the 'What it's like to be 2,3,4' etc books by Jennie Lindon but I'm always spending money and then wondering if it was really worth it and that I knew all that anyway. Has anyone got these and do you think they were a useful buy?
