Create a Multi-cultural Ethnic Community!

Karito Kids, a collection of six multi-cultural dolls, were sculpted to focus on the distinctive beauty of each ethnicity. These life like dolls were designed to represent features of African, Asian, Caucasian, Latin and Mediterranean ethnicities.

Each girl doll comes with her own passport and a book which takes her on an exciting adventure in her home country and gives your child the opportunity to experience the story with her companion in a different culture with its own unique combination of landscapes, cultures, celebrations and beliefs.

Not only will your child enjoy adventures in different cultures, but each doll comes with its own unique code which allows your child to donate 3% of the retail cost, selecting from four causes-- growing up healthy, learning, habitat or livelihood-- where they can make a difference in the lives of other children around the world.
