Create, Connect, and Give with a Ready to beBorn® Doll Kit

The Rylee Peek-a-Boo Ready to beBorn® kit is a meaningful therapy doll-making activity created for long-term care homes, memory care and dementia programs, community groups, schools, and families.

More than a traditional craft, our Ready to beBorn® kits combine the joy of creating with the comfort and companionship of a finished weighted therapy doll. Participants enjoy a hands-on activity and finish with a beautiful newborn-sized doll they can keep, enjoy, or give to someone special.

A Wonderful Activity for Long-Term Care

Ready to beBorn® kits offer a unique "Make & Give" opportunity for long-term care and senior living communities. Residents who enjoy creative, hands-on activities can take part in making a doll and then choose to gift their finished therapy doll to another resident who may benefit from additional comfort, companionship, or sensory support.

It is a beautiful way to bring creativity, purpose, connection, and giving together in one activity.

Doll-making can also encourage conversation, reminiscence, social interaction, and a sense of accomplishment. The activity can be enjoyed individually, with a caregiver or family member, or as part of a group, recreation, or intergenerational program.

Rylee, a Peek-a-Boo Newborn to Create and Love

Rylee features a soft cloth body and realistic vinyl head, hands, and feet, paired with playful peek-a-boo eyes that transition from wide awake to sound asleep. Her vinyl limbs offer the perfect balance of huggable softness while showcasing her beautifully detailed hands and feet.

Once assembled and weighted, Rylee becomes a comforting newborn-sized therapy doll that is wonderful for holding, nurturing, sensory engagement, and companionship.

Our Ready to beBorn® kits include the components needed to create your doll, making them an approachable choice for activity programs and first-time doll makers.

Magnetic Pacifier Safety Notice: For memory care, senior care, and long-term care environments, we recommend choosing the "No Magnetic Pacifier" option. To ensure safety around pacemakers and other implanted medical devices, our ready-to-assemble doll kits do not include head magnets by default.

If you are assembling a doll for a setting where magnets are safe, we are happy to include them! Simply select the "Magnetic Pacifier" option when ordering your kit, and we will install the head magnet before shipping.

More Than a Doll-Making Kit

Whether Rylee is created in a long-term care home activity, dementia or memory care program, school, community group, or at home with family, Ready to beBorn® kits turn doll-making into something even more meaningful.

Create it. Love it. Gift it. Comfort.
