Amamanta Family presentation case
comes with any 4 or 5 member family of dolls.

| Childbirth:
A word that signifies the power of a woman becoming a mother, a man
becoming a father and the two of them becoming parents to a new baby.
Family
Roles
It’s no longer just the individual “you” and “I”. A new dynamic
of interdependence takes precedence for the couple. In a few hours, with
the arrival of the newborn, a family is born. He will become a father; she
becomes a mother and that delicate baby becomes the center of attention. The mother provides warm milk, love, tenderness, affection,
guidance, orientation and plenty of smiles.
Both
parents share the responsibility: The mother, besides love should have
authority. The father beside authority should give love.
The
paternal role faces the challenge of creating a balance between authority and
affection - the displaying an emotional side that fosters support and
understanding. Parental roles are not exclusive but can instead complement
each other as necessary to maximize family happiness.
Amamanta Family can help your
children engage in the virtues of traditional family values at an early age:
Love
Support
Authority
& Discipline
Understanding
& Compassion
Education
Responsibility
Communication
& Sharing
Warmth
Security
Acceptance
Respect
Honesty
Family
Union

Parents can use Amamanta anatomically-correct dolls as a
sex education tool to help prevent sexual
molestation or abuse. Dolls
come complete with removable underwear, clothes and shoes.
Amamanta family cloth
dolls are soft and cuddly and consist of a mother, father, son, daughter and
newborn baby.
This newborn baby can be placed in the mother’s belly and gently pulled out of
the mothers womb to demonstrate birthing to the child.
Amamanta is an ideal interactive set of dolls for role playing with your
children and a insightful discovery tool to explore your child’s
mindset, perspective, emotional well being, worries or fears. A responsible
parent or child therapist can address child issues that surface through playing.

Amamanta dolls are also an ideal
tool for explaining pregnancy and the arrival of a new sibling to a young
child. Changes that “mommie” is going through in her pregnancy,
the birth process and the needs of the newborn (i.e.: nursing can also be
addressed.). The parent can better manage the expectations of the child by
explaining the changes in the parental roles as
well as the new brother/sister role that the child can embrace when the
new sibling comes home. Amamanta
dolls can help parents guide children in learning their new role of caring and protecting
sister/brother through role-playing with parents. This can help in preventing
sibling rivalry and jealous sentiments as the child adjusts to the arrival
of a newborn. Other changes affecting the family and the child can be
explained and rehearsed through role playing with these realistic and wholesome dolls. |

The anatomically-correct
Amamanta family set of dolls have multiple uses for parents, educators, child therapists,
health care professionals and sexual abuse prevention centers. It’s
an interactive, role-playing tool for hands-on teaching that opens
discussion about family issues in a non-obtrusive, natural and playful
way.

Amamanta is also a nice prop for teaching your family
values and instilling good principles at an early age. Parents along
with children can role-play with the dolls as an
alternative to a bed time story. This technique may help discover and
resolve conflicts or concerns affecting the children during the day.

Amamanta
Family is a concept created right from the very beginning. They are
hand-made with great love and care in a fair-trade market style in
Medellin, Colombia. Your purchase of Amamanta
helps provide income and job opportunities to one of the most disadvantaged
people in the area. These dolls are not made in an industrial factory setting;
instead each Amamanta doll is assembled by hand and therefore unique. Amamanta has created a needs-based
apprenticeship model in which women are trained by their peers and work from their homes
in a family setting. Two local non-for-profit organizations work closely with
Amamanta in the recruiting process so that job opportunities can be created to empower the people that need work the
most. This way, although it could seem more difficult at times, we know
that Amamanta is doing something “right” to help poverty in Colombia
and provide a valuable tool for good parenting in a more affluent
society. Act locally, think globally! |

They are ideal for explaining the human
reproductive cycle to boys and girls ages 3 to 10. From
conception and birth of babies, breastfeeding,
sexual education to demonstrating appropriate versus inappropriate
touching.
These dolls
include true anatomical details such as stitched on genitals and breasts. |
