Want More Fulla? Get Fulla Merchandises!
Girls need role models, and it is easy for them to follow anything that can set as example – be it good or bad. That is why it is easy for them to fall prey to illusions and wrong personifications of the feminine which is being illustrated and presented in the different media platforms. We cannot censor what out children see and follow, but we can be vigilant, and we can guide them by choosing the right examples for them.
Fulla As An Example
In the Islam world, there is a great need to plan and think of the right role models for children, especially girls. This is because they have conservative customs and ideals for women, and it is very important to start teaching these even to kids.
Fulla and The Muslim Ideals
Because of the need to set a good example of the ideal women to children, there has been an increasing clamor for ideal – promoting toys. For girl's toys, it perfectly comes in the form of Fulla. Fulla is an 11 and a half inch doll that can practically pass as Barbie's cousin. But unlike Barbie, she promotes the right characteristics that every Muslim parent would want for her children.
She is conservative, loving and generous – and these are portrayed by the way she is made, the way she is dressed and the way she is advertised in public.
Because Fulla answers the Muslim's need for a proper role model for children, it is no wonder why she became a top selling doll right away. From Syria and the middle east, her reach has extended to Africa and Europe. She still continues to dominate the Middle Eastern market, and is still making waves in Europe and other parts of the world as well.
There are other Islamic dolls that have been introduced way before her, but the selling power of the Fulla doll has far exceeded the others. And now that it has found its place in the market, Fulla has started to branch out and provide other items as well.
Fashion and Fulla
Girls love to emulate other women. They start by playing dress up by wearing their mother's clothes and shoes. Then they move on even further and follow what they see – whether these be in magazines, in person, in TV or from their toys.
Fulla takes this into consideration by providing the right items for the doll that children can also emulate as well. Fulla, for example, has a prayer rug that usually comes along with the doll. There is even a small kiddie prayer rug that the girls can actually choose.
There are also plenty of school supplies, food cases, travel cases and even jewelry that are inspired by this ideal doll. Aside from items, there are also even food items that carry her name.
Truly, the Fulla influence can be felt anywhere because of this doll, and because of the characteristics and influence that she exudes, you don't really have to worry.
