These silicone babies are meant for doll collectors and adults. A child will play with the baby in a way the adults do not. A child will want to dress and redress the baby several times a day, bath them and take them everywhere. A normal silicone baby we paint them in so many layers and then we put a matting coat on the baby. The matting layer holds up pretty good for adults who take care of the baby and play with her lightly.
If you allow a child to play with a non kid friendly doll, it will begin to rub that matting layer down and the baby will get shiny spots on the silicone. The reason for this is a child or teen will play with the baby like a vinyl baby not like a collector doll. They will change there clothes several times a day. Bathe them often or just play constantly with them like kids do, unfortantly the matting layer will rub off much faster and the baby will begin to get shiny spots.
The kid friendly baby is still painted, but she is painted with paints that will not have the need for that matting layer. She still looks real but I paint her in such a way that she is more kid friendly. The only real care she will need is to be powdered with baby powder with cornstarch in it. Our kid friendly baby still looks like a real baby but we have made her so that she is more durable for a child's use. We have pictures of both babies on this listing so you can see the difference.
The kid friendly will say kid friendly on the picture. All silicone babies still need to be cared for and played with gently. The original baby kenzley is painted in several layers that includes veining etc. And has a special matting powder to matt the paint. The baby is made to order Babies will take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks to make and if it is during the holiday season may take longer.However, a kid friendly version will take less time to make. Our time frame is only an estimate and we will not rush the painting process. It also depends on how many orders I have in at the time and what baby you order and the options you have chosen for your custom baby. If you order a blank kit, you will just be getting the baby straight from the mold.
So you will need to do any prep or repair work before painting. If you need your baby by a certain date, you may want to see what babies I have already made. Some of our babies are sculpted by me and poured by me and some babies we order as blank kits and paint them.If you order a painted baby or kid friendly baby. S he will come with a outfit of our choice, pacifier, hospital band, hair bow or beanie and a receiving blanket. If you order baby with drink and wet system you will get a bottle.
These babies are like real babies and you must take care of them like a real baby. You can bathe them, but please follow all of our care instructions that we give you with your baby. As with all silicone babies, they will have seams and imperfections, that is the nature of silicone babies and they are not perfect.If you want a drink and wet system installed in your baby. But just know, if we do install it in your baby for an additional cost. The same rule would apply to this baby, because she is a custom baby ooak baby, one of a kind. Which means, even though all the babies are poured in the same mold, not any two babies will be painted the same.
This baby will have identifying birthmarks or painting techniques to identify that it is a baby from my store. She will also come with a birth certificates with her name on it.
