Didn't we date years ago?

If you're a guy, a girl named "Flatsy" might not, ummmmmm, have caught your eye during your dating years. But if you're a father (or a grandfather or uncle) of a little girl, Flatsy dolls are a real find for any gift-giving occasion!

Let's face it, bros, doll-buying is something most of us know very little about. It's easy to make a well-intentioned mistake or two if you suddenly find yourself in this alien territory. But Flatsy has some great features that make her a really great gift for girls between the ages of four and ten.

Unlike the more common "fashion" dolls out there, Flatsy features age-appropriate clothing and accessories. Hey, do you want your five-year-old dressing up her doll like little Lady GaGa? Any dad can understand how that one can come back an bite him in the butt when his sweet little Snookie becomes a teen! Furthermore, the doll's simple, non-curvacious shape isn't about to give any little girl insecurity about her current or future figure.

Flatsy is easy for little fingers to dress. While not quite two-dimensional, Flatsy is pretty flat, sort of like a cuter, little-girl-looking version of Gumby, albeit with hair little beauticians can style. And like that flexible green dude, Flatsy is fully posable. Her compact size and shape makes her and her wardrobe easy to pack and tote -- nice for car trips, plane rides, and weekend visits with Dad. Grandma and Grandpa will also find that Flatsy is a nice "back-up" toy to have stashed away for the granddaughter's overnighters. A side-table drawer will hold it all -- and more!

Flatsy is available in playsets or as individual dolls. She's really a recreation of a popular '60s toy, so there's that nice "retro" look about her without being old-fashioned and "uncool."

"Flatsy -- she's flat, and that's that!"
