Last year, we told you about the Lammily dolls. Founder and artist Nickolay Lamm of Lammily also called them ‘Normal Barbies’, has now come up with a new concept of Period Party add-on pack.
These new dolls come with an educational pamphlet and doll-size menstrual pads which is designed to help girls learn about periods.
Lamm told The Huffington Post, “I’ve read horror stories of kids thinking that they were dying during their first period. Parents are also wary of approaching this subject. So I feel Lammily’s ‘Period Party’ can introduce kids to menstruation in a very fun and disarming way, and give parents a very useful tool. Menstruation is still a taboo in our society. More than that — sometimes it’s still used as an insult. I just don’t think that something as core to a women’s life and health as menstruation should be seen as embarrassing in any way, shape, or form.”
