What our experts think
Our testers were very eager to start playing with Nella. The fact that she was a recognisable TV character added to the children’s excitement (although, even our testers who had never heard of her really liked the doll). We loved that she challenged stereotypes by being both a princess and a knight – a great positive message to children.
The children loved Nella’s long hair which could be styled and that she talks and sings – they enjoyed singing and dancing with her. We observed lots of imaginative play as the children engaged with the doll, promoting creativity and storytelling. Role playing with dolls and similar toys is also great for children’s personal, social and emotional development as they can act out and make sense of different scenarios and emotions. The transforming feature was straightforward and easy to use; one minor issue is that during the transformation the skirt can get caught – children need to take care not to rip it.
