Handmade in Colombia with love
Connect kids with culture and diversity!
Our Casa Bonita dolls create identity pride to children. Many may feel represented by their dark skin colour, thick hair and colourful outfit.
They are also a great way to talk about diversity at home and through play.
A little personal story: my daughter said 'the Wayunquerra has the same thick hair as you mum!', and that filled m heart, knowing that this little dolly is representing her mum.
The legend
The original Wayunquerras were made of clay and represent the Wayuu mothers passing on traditions to their daughters. The Wayúu community is the largest indigenous community of Colombia and Venezuela.
