Welcome!

I saw this idea for making wooden dolls on Grace Lin's Pocket Pacy blog. I decided to make my own, because it looked fun. I am calling them passing dolls because if you are given one of my dolls I would like you to take them somewhere and then pass them on to someone else for another journey. If you are willing to share the journey on this blog, please take a picture of you and the doll on your trip and send it to passingdolls@gmail.com with a description and I will post it here on my blog. Thanks!

Alice (inspired by Alice in Wonderland)

Alice is the newsiest passing doll to be shared on the blog.  She is 10 years old.  She loves to eat M'nMs on airplanes (p.s. the peanut kind).  She likes animals.  Her favorite animals are white rabbits.  She is known to be a daydreamer and does not like books without pictures.  She also does not like tea parties, croquet, and small doors, but she does like to travel.  She loves to share stories of her adventures.

Travels in England


Charles had a lovely time with seven nurses as they walked along the Limestone Way in the Peak District National Park, UK.


Moo

Next stop, Portugal!

Goodbye Italy



Charles left Italy and headed north.  He traveled by van for three days and had very exciting stops along the way.

This is Charles as he traveled through Switzerland.  His next stop was on the edge of the Black Forest in Germany.

Biederbach, Germany



A beautiful picture of swans in the canal.


Bruges, Belgium was his next stop.  Bruges looks very pretty.  It has lots of canals.  You can see Charles in front of a canal with white swans swimming around!  I love that picture!

Next stop, England!

Charles goes on his first trip.  He went to northern Idaho to spend time in the woods.  Here he is overlooking the pine trees in the woods.  He won't be staying long, soon he will go to Italy.  So long, Idaho!  Ciao, Italy!!

Mary in the Himalayas

Mary traveled to India!  
Mary looks so excited to be here in the Himalayas.  This is a very famous place.  On the other end of this range of mountains is Mt. Everest!!  I heard that it was very cold there.  
This is a picture of Mary in a small hill station called Talnoo. 
Here is another angle from Talnoo.
Mary has now traveled to three continents!  North America, Australia, and Asia.  She is lucky to be meeting so many nice friends along the way.  Next stop, England!!
