Cabbage Patch Kids Growing in the Garden Again
I recently read, with great interest, a post that Cindi over at Moomette’s Magnificents wrote about Cabbage Patch dolls. She told how Limited Edition 25th Anniversary Cabbage Patch kids will be hitting store shelves for a limited time only. You can check out her post for the details of the promotion. The reason her post held such an interest for me, was that she talked about how her sister-in-law is a graphic design artist, and worked for Coleco Industries. Coleco Industries was licensed to sell the Original Xavier Roberts dolls also known as Cabbage Patch dolls. As a toddler, Cindi’s daughter, niece and nephews were child models and their photos appeared in many Coleco Cabbage Patch promotional toy publications, brochures and on the boxes the dolls and Coleco toys came in! Isn’t that cool? I think it is very cool. I always loved the Cabbage Patch dolls. My mom made clothes for them. Here is a picture of my 23 year old son, Greg, when he was a baby. He is the one in blue.
I live near the Babyland General Hospital in Cleveland, GA and have been there several times. It is neat to see a Cabbage Patch Kid being ‘born’. My oldest daughter had one born to her in the cabbage patch delivery room. That was really neat!

As a little girl I got a cabage patch doll for almost every birthday. I managed to snatch one of them for my daughters. I have an 8 year old sister who has all my old toys so it will still be a while until my kids inherit all my toys I had.

Oh how cool! That would be so much fun. I never knew the hospital existed. What a fun thing to do with a child. Kinda like taking your daughter to the American Girl store for tea. This sounds like so much fun.
That is so cool that the dolls are still in your family. My mom got us dolls even after we were in our teens. It just wasn’t Christmas unless we got a doll.
awww what a cute little thing
are you going to make a picture collage for his wedding?
