I just bought a Karito Kids doll off ebay for $80 (used) based on what I had seen on your blog, and she's just gorgeous. I know you own Gia and Zoe as well, and man, if you ever run out of post ideas, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a post comparing the Karito Kids in your collection.

They do take up significant space, especially with the 21 inch height. <br /><br />The faces are funny...when I saw a Karito Kid for the first time, the face turned me off because it is so different...nothing like a typical play doll face.

If you have an AC Moore nearby, I can definitely recommend some of those dresses for the Karito gals. The blue one in my post was $9.99, (maybe $12?). They also sell Karito outfits separately on Amazon, but they're over $20, I think. <Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178054470349012341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726715699839627686.post-12013513711857701982012-03-13T12:57:01.076-04:002012-03-13T12:57:01.076-04:00Last month, I found a Karito Kids Pita from Mexico...Last month, I found a Karito Kids Pita from Mexico at the Thrift Store.
