The story of Peter Pan has fascinated children for the better part of a century thanks to the book by J. M. Barrie. Animated movies have renewed interest in the mischievous boy and his cohorts who never grew up, as well as their fairy friend who was jealous of Wendy. Little girls love to play with Tinker Bell dolls today thanks to new movies about Neverland fairies. Their mothers are often equally enchanted by new versions of their childhood collections.
A series of books depicting not just Tinker Bell, but her many friends in Neverland was begun in the past decade. Children now approach their imaginative games with even more ideas about the world these characters inhabit including the food they eat, what they wear and the jobs they do. Figures with moving parts make it easier for children to fully realize their creative games.
When a new film or DVD is released, new Tinker Bell dolls might also be released as part of a cross-marketing promotion. These dolls may include numerous costumes as well other accessories such as tree houses and flower carts - all designed to delight and stimulate the childhood imagination at play.
For collectors there are also decorative figurines. They do nothing but look pretty, but there is a wide variety available. Tinker Bell has changed over the decades into the character families recognize today, so if you can find earlier versions these will add depth to a collection and perhaps monetary value as well.
Among many producers of commercial products, there is actually a Tinker Bell cult. From bed sheets, towel sets and children's clothing to water bottles, tote bags and even lunch boxes, there's hardly anywhere this diminutive, yet spunky creature of the wood doesn't appear. There are even Tink designer sunglasses for the hardcore fans.
You can also invite Tinker Bell and her friends to a little girl's birthday party. Cake dolls are made out of plastic and are inserted into a cake just before it is served. These waist-up figures are very nice party favors that can be given to party guests at the end of the celebration.
While plastic and porcelain Tinker Bell dolls are lovely to look at, when it comes to a plaything, one made from softer vinyl, rubber and cloth is a better choice. These are completely safe for a child to sleep with. As a child gets older, consider a Tinker Bell wrist watch to encourage time-keeping and management skills.
Finally, there are costume pieces that allow little girls to take on the character themselves. Retailers offer wings, wigs and those funky "leaf" dresses as well as tights, making an ideal choice for Halloween or other costume-theme party. Even adult women, looking for something quirky and amusing find appeal heere, reliving girlhood fantasies. It seems that Tinker Bell still has a strong appear for children of all ages - even those past thirty and under ninety.
