Different kinds of Rubens Barn dolls
There are several different kinds of Rubens Barn dolls. Here we have written a little about the different kinds, so hopefully you can find out which doll is the best. All the dolls are super soft, and handmade.
Rubens Barn baby
This version of Rubens Barn is made to look like babies. They can suck their thumb and have short, baby-like hair. The doll is made of polyester fleece. The doll is very lifelike, and has a cute expression. Rubens Barn Baby measures 45 cm. They can be used from newborn, but it is typically around the age of 1.5 that children start to play with the doll a lot. The doll comes with the clothes it is wearing, but more accessories can be purchased. Rubens Barn Baby costs DKK 499.
Rubens Barn Kids
These dolls are meant to represent children who are a little older. That's why they have longer hair and a less "babyish" expression.

The model shown is called Jonathan, and is cute with his red hair, freckles and cap.

What is Rubens Child?
Jennifer. Go to dealer
The dolls are designed by Swedish artist Ewa Jarenskrog. She named them Ruben, after her own father.
The cute dolls were first produced in 1995. They are all Swedish made and handmade. That's why the dolls cost a bit more than many other dolls. They are handmade, which gives them each their own expression. The Swedish dolls embrace several cultures and genders, and therefore the dolls are available with several nationalities and skin colours. They also have a gender and what goes with it. The dolls provide ample opportunity for child-adult conversations about boys, girls, nationalities and more. This type of toy promotes empathy in young children, thus supporting their development.
Good for children with special needs and dementia
Because the dolls are of a certain size and weight (they have a weight built into them so they are heavy), children with special needs and dementia find a special peace when sitting with these dolls. They are lifelike and have a sweet and gentle expression. The handmade dolls all have their own personality and name.
Choose from many different
If you're interested in special dolls, there's plenty of opportunity to find the one that's right for you. There are many varieties to choose from. The dolls are also available in several sizes. The two largest are Rubens Baby and Kids, which you can see described at the top of the article. The names of the dolls include Anna, Clara, Emil, Emma, Eric, Maria and Molly. It's not often you can find the dolls on sale, but you might get lucky on either Black Friday or after Christmas.
