Did you get a Cabbage Patch kid when you were a kid?

I had one i still have it some where i got my little girl one for her birthday last year i can't belive they are still around

I used to love the cabbage patch kids as a second to my little sister doll. I do not have my cabbage patch kid anymoe but I am sure my friends have one. At least oone friend because everyone had one back in the day :)

No...no such thing when I was a kid...

I had 11 Cabbage Patch dolls. I collected them. My parents got me and my brother our first for Easter when I was 7 (I think). Her name was Jean Dory. After that I was hooked. I started getting them for my birthday and when I got older bought them with my own money (up until I was a teen). I still have them all and the 4 my brother had. I gave a few to my kids to play with. I remember all of their names too--Jean Dory, Winston Alan, Dawn Jayne, Erin Hope, Bridgette Renee, Amy Colleen, Holly Ruth, Mariamber Judith, Zackary Joseph, Courtney Lynn and Stuart (he belonged to a friend who didn't want him). My brother's dolls were Edward Barth, Max (no middle name that I remember), Andrew James, Matthew Brooks. I always look at the dolls when we are in the store because I like to look at the names and birthdates. I actually found one with my 4 year old's birthday a couple weeks ago but didn't have money to buy it for her. Oh well, lol.

Oh yeah i got one and i still have it!!! Her name is Fernanda Mindy and she has long blonh hair in pig tails. My brother also got one and i have his as well, it's name was Ozwald Ulysses and he is bald, lol!!! I am going to give them to my girls when they get a little older.

They were a real hot item when i was a kid, Iremeber getting two of them for christmas, my mom waited in line forever to get them.

I never had one..I was too old for dolls whne they first came out

When I was a kid the creator of the Cabbage Patch probably hadn't been born yet. It my day it was the Kewpie Doll.

I really wanted one... but I never got one. My grandma made me one... but it wasn't the same. I was so jealous of my cousin (she always got everything). She had four of five of them. One of them had the cornsilk hair... and she also had the baby which is what I really really wanted - their heads smelled like baby powder.

I believe when I was younger that I I had two cabbage patch kids/dolls. I remember as well having a bedspread, but also sheets for a while of the cabbage patch kids. haha. I remember when I was younger how this had to be one of my favorite dolls that I had for quite a while. I used to always carry it with me for the longest time. And if I didn't have it sometimes by my side that I'd make a fuss if it wasn't there. I actually don't quite remember what had happened to the one's that I had.. I honestly truly wish that I would have still had them now.. As I know if I did it would be one of those things that I wouldn't want to part with.. Even if I am a grown adult now. I honestly would love to get my hands on a few of these again.. As I know that I am trying to collect some of the old 80's dolls that I had when I was a kid.. Because I either had to leave them behind when we moved away from Saskatchewan.. Or because I really don't know what ended up happening to the dolls that I had such as this one specifically. One thing I liked so much about these dolls we're the expressions on there faces.. How they ended up making these dolls amazed me. I loved the little weirdly shaped noses that they had back then.. And how each one had there own little outfits.. It's nice that they didn't end up trying to copy all of the outfits & try to make them look all the same.. I don't think a lot of dolls they make these days are as original as the one's that they used to make back from my childhood.. In conclusion.. I know that not only we're cabbage patch kids my favorite dolls in general to play with.. But they also we're some of my favorite things to collect.. As I look back now they didn't just sell the dolls & bed sheets.. But they also sold things such as pins or figurines, or tea sets, among other things.. I think the things they sold back then will end up being a great collector's item for a lot people who grew up with these dolls.. And are wanting to re-collect these items now that they are much older! . . Thanks for allowing me to share! xx
