Tanisha Doll with Dimples (46 cm)

An inclusive-by-design doll with beautifully textured black hair, warm dimples and expressive features that reflect diversity within everyday play.

Tanisha supports imaginative storytelling and meaningful role play while broadening representation in a natural and respectful way.
Helpful when

A child is engaging in imaginative storytelling or exploring identity and social relationships through play.
Why this is Roost approved

Open-ended doll play creates space for children to explore friendships, family roles and everyday experiences in a way that feels familiar and meaningful. Nadya’s textured hair and soft freckles add important visual representation, allowing diversity in appearance to feel visible, normalised and valued within play. Thoughtful details like these help storytelling more closely reflect the world children see around them.
