Bamboletta Doll

Bamboletta’ means ‘little doll’ in Italian and is a term of endearment that parents use for their children. Bamboletta Dolls is a family business based in Cobble Hill, BC. Christina Platt and her team of "mamas" and husband, John, take great pride and care to use only the finest materials available to make their special dolls. Recently featured in Mothering Magazine, Bamboletta Dolls are growing in popularity around the world. While in Guatemala this past Winter/Spring a Bamboletta Ambassador joined us for the journey and regularly blogged about her adventures.

Christina is donating one of her special dolls to our upcoming gala. Her name is Poppy and she is pictured here on the bench at the coffee shop where we just met Christina on our way up Island. Isn't she adorable
