Maplelea Girls, All-Canadian Dolls {A Great Canadian Blog Bash Giveaway}
I couldn't think of a more perfect sponsor for The Great Canadian Blog Bash then the Maplelea Girls! These all-Canadian 18" vinyl dolls are simply awesome.
Meet the Maplelea Girls!
Taryn of Banf, Alberta
Brianne of Sandy Lake, Manitoba
Alexi of Toronto, Ontario
Jenna of Lunennurg, Nova Scotia
Léonie of Quebec City, Quebec
Saila of Iqaluit, Nunavut
These 18" vinyl play dolls are high quality, sturdy, and made with an incredible attention to detail. Each Maplelea Girl has different interests, lives in a different part of Canada and has different stories to share with her new owner via her accompanying journal. We recently welcomed Saila into out home and G-Girl is utterly enchanted with her.
The Canadian Angle:
You really can't get more Canadian then the Maplelea Girls. These dolls are designed to help kids learn about Canada's culture, heritage and geography. And everything about the Maplelea Girls is done in Canada, sculpting, design, writing, illustration, etc., with the exception of the actual assembly which is done in a socially responsible Chinese factory (I'm quoting from their F.A.Q. page here, click through to learn more).
To learn more about Maplelea Girls:
- visit their website.
- connect with them on Facebook.
- connect with them on Twitter.
- join their mailing list.

One summer Taryn, Brianne, Alexi and Jenna happened to meet during an incredible adventure they’ll never forget. Before returning to their hometowns across Canada, they pledged to remain friends forever. They even chose a name for themselves—the Maplelea Girls!
They have both porcelain and playdolls. I thought they just had playdolls.

i have alexi my sis has brianne. theyre the 2 most pretty dolls
hey my sis has brianne i have alexi theyre both so pretty. if ur looking for a doll for one of your female child relatives id recommend a Maplelea girl. If you?r girl is a winter gal, maybe Saila. Musical? Leonie. Environmentalist? taryn. Detective or inventor? Alexi. farmer or ballerina? brianne. athletic gal? jenna. Brianne's a study in contrasts meaning she is mysterious.
My G-Girl got Brianne for Christmas, so now she and Saila are both living with us. My daughter definitely agrees with you that Brianne is so very pretty.
Really? That's so cool! Alexi is the second prettiest (I just think so cuz i have her. I just got Maplelea Friend KMF7 today! She's pretty too but again ALL of them are.
