A dolly, often referred to as a doll, is a toy designed to resemble a human figure, typically a child or baby. These toys are commonly made from materials like plastic, cloth, or porcelain and can vary in size, style, and features. Many dolls come with accessories such as clothing, shoes, and even playsets, allowing children to engage in imaginative play. Dollies have been popular for centuries and are often used to help children develop social skills and emotional understanding. They can also serve as a tool for storytelling and role-playing. Some dolls are designed to represent different cultures, promoting diversity and inclusivity in play.
