Esperanza
Special Edition 18" Dia de los Muertos Doll
Our Generation 18-inch doll Esperanza embraces the beautiful traditions of Dia de los Muertos and encourages kids to learn about cultural identity in a fun and engaging way. Known as Day of the Dead, this holiday originated in Mexico and honors loved ones through music, food, and rituals. Esperanza pays tribute to her Mexican heritage with striking yet playful “calavera” (skull) face paint inspired by La Catrina – an iconic symbol in Mexican culture that reminds us how Dia de los Muertos is a time to honor family, life, and happy memories. Plus, her vibrant flower crown and Tehuana-inspired dress are adorned with signature flowers like “cempasuchil” (marigolds) and “clavel” (carnations). These flowers are also used to decorate altars in homes called ofrendas, which provide a sense of connection to past generations, while the Tehuana dresses (worn by the women in Oaxaca, Mexico) display strength, beauty, and cultural pride. Esperanza has a huggable soft body, pierced ears with removable hoop earrings, wavy brown hair, and lifelike dark-brown eyes that open and close. She comes in special edition packaging with illustrations of sugar skulls and florals seen throughout the festivities. Clothing has easy-open closures to quickly put on and remove as kids explore storytelling and self-expression. Compatible with most 18-inch dolls, doll clothes, and accessories. This Our Generation Dia de los Muertos doll makes a wonderful gift for kids ages 3+ (small parts).

All About Esperanza
Caring for Your Our Generation 18-inch Doll
Hair
Esperanza arrives with wavy brown hair that's fun to style in a lot of different ways!
First things first - haircare for your doll will be easier with the proper tools!
We recommend using a round-tipped wire brush.
You will also need a small spray bottle filled with water. The best kind to use will be able to spray a very fine mist (instead of a strong jet).
Second, make sure to avoid heat and never use styling products on your doll's hair (or body)! Heated styling tools like hair dryers or straighteners and products like gels or mousses can permanently damage your doll.
To help brush her hair, we recommend very lightly misting her hair with water - not too much! - to remove static and make the hair easier to detangle.
Important Tips
OG Dolls are always ready for fun and adventure. Just remember - the BEST kind of adventure for your OG Doll is in your imagination!
Your Our Generation doll has a cuddly, soft body that should not get wet. Pretend swimming is ok! But please do not submerse your doll in water.
OG Dolls love pretending to play on the beach, but please make sure not to let your doll sit in the sun for too long...exposure to heat of any kind can cause serious harm to your doll!
We know you will do everything you can to keep your doll happy and healthy.
