It’s The Annual ’12 Days of an ELC Christmas’! On the 9th Day… Win a Crying Baby Cupcake Doll!

Screen Shot 2014-11-15 at 21.08.19

This interactive doll is perfect for children who enjoy imaginative play. Hear Cupcake say ‘mama’ and ‘papa’ when you squeeze her left hand or tickle her tummy to hear her giggle, just like a real baby.

When she is hungry, you can give Cupcake her lunch. Pop on her bib and prepare her food, then use the cutlery set to feed her. She also likes to be bottle fed, see her cheeks move as she sucks on the teat, then hear her drink and burp in delight.

When Cupcake is feeling blue, she will cry real tears which you can wipe away. Soothe her with a cuddle and her comfort blanket, then rub the back of her head to hear her coo and gurgle. When it’s time for a nap, hold her right hand to help her fall asleep, when you lay her down, her eyes will slowly close.

This adorable set comes with everything your little one needs to care for their Crying Baby Cupcake Doll. She comes dressed in a lovely fleece outfit to keep her warm, with a teddy and a blanket for her to play with.

So how to win the Crying Baby Cupcake Doll for Christmas? Well, you have just 24 hours to complete as many of the options below as you like. It’s easy…

NOW CLOSED

 See you tomorrow for Day 10!

A 70's child, I’ve been married for a Very Long Time, and appear to have made four children, and collected one large and useless dog along the way. I work, I have four children, I have a dog… ergo, I do not do dusting or ironing. I began LittleStuff back in (gulp) 2004. I like huge mugs of tea. And Coffee. And Cake. And a steaming cone of crispy fresh fluffy chips, smothered in salt and vinegar. #healthyeater When I grow up I am going to be quietly graceful, organised and wear lipstick every day. In the meantime I *may* have a slight butterfly-brain issue.

  229. I love the look of real trees, but the only time we had one it went “smelly” and all the needles dropped off before Christmas.. so its fake all the way for me

  232. Real ones are lovely but so expensive and messy! As my children are small and touch all the decorations will stick with a fake one for a few years

  235. Always used to have a real one but switched over to fake a couple of years ago after finding slug trails all over the carpet every morning! Euw! Can’t abide slugs even outside! Slug trails so not a good look in the lounge! Little one’s seemed to find them far too interesting for my liking! :D

  248. fake , thought of a tree being cut just so it can decorate a house for few weeks somehow does not agree with me – unless its a tree growing in your garden and will be there for years to come
