 For when Barbie needs a ride to the party

To teach patience as an aspiring doctor

 For when you need a sticker book

To keep them company on a shopping trip

To practice salon-styles for the aspiring hair dresser

To help fight crime

For when your coloring book has run out of pages

To take part in all the fun and games

For an extra boost when they need it

To help with grooming

To be the perfect body pillow

For those times they feel like horsing around

To be a comfortable lounge chair when watching cartoons

To join in for the perfect snuggles

To be the perfect blanket

To pray with

And finally, to help take the blame when there's a mess
