| Big POG and Taryn taking baby skunk for a walk |
Taryn and her accessories are high quality. Over the past few months, my 5 year old and 7 year old have dressed and undressed her, dragged her around by one arm (apparently how you show love when you’re almost in kindergarten, LOL), ripped the tent open umpteen times to shove more stuff in and “make it more comfy”, and everything is still good as new. Don’t forget lifting the skunk’s tail a million times to spray people. If that’s not thorough testing, I don’t know what is!

- It’s cool that she’s from Banff! (We frequently go to Banff; it’s only an hour from home!)
- We like the same things! (Taryn’s favorite thing to do with her family is go camping and roast marshmallows.)
- Her hair is really nice. It’s like real hair! I like doing her hair!
- I like her cute clothes and pajamas.
- I love her because she came with animals and the animals can move! (The fox is fully adjustable, skunk has an adjustable tail, and the deer stands up on its own.)
- I like her tent because it’s like a real tent. Her backpack is cool too because it has buckles like a real one.
- It’s fun to read her journal and find out what she likes.

| Little POG loves Taryn! |
While I agree with my daughters 100%, I have to add a few points from a mother’s perspective. If Taryn were a real person, she’s the kind of girl I’d want my girls to play with. She won a Citizenship Award in school, is in the Environmental Club, would keep disrespectful tourists out of the park if she had superpowers, and loves skiing, camping, and skating. I read all this in her journal (shhhh, don’t tell!) and her journal has inspired my 7 year old to start one of her own! The first entry was “My Raincation” since this summer has been the rainiest Alberta has seen in 89 years.

Taryn would make a great gift for young adventurers as she’s a positive role model, fun to play with (that hair!), high quality, and super cute. Built to last, she can be a part of the family for a long time.

Would love to give my daughter Taryn to remind her of our time in Alberta.
My daughter would love Taryn, and ir would be a great way to help her remember all the fun adventures we've had in Alberta this year.

My daughter would love to take Taryn camping with her!
Taryn the outdoorsy doll would be a great choice for my daughter or one of her friends… we love Banff!
My daughter would love the Leonie doll. Great website, by the way 🙂
That is for sure that my daughter would love this!
We recently moved to Canmore. I would love to get Taryn for my daughter!
So that would be Taryn from Banff we would love to win!
I would love this doll for my BOYS! My 3 boys are 3 and 18 months and growing up with as much nature as we can manage in this busy season. My 3 year old loves Banff and I'm sure he'd love a doll who is from one of his favourite towns.
I would choose Taryn for my daughter.
We need Taryn to accompany us on out kananaskis hikes and trips to banff. My 3 girls would treasure her forever
We'd love either taryn or Jenna!
Canadian made for Canadian adventure girls. My daughter would love it!
My daughter would love Taryn
My daughter would love this doll! 🙂
I'd love to win Charlsea for my daughter. I'd like to share my love of the ocean 🙂
Awe my little neighbour would love it!
Hmm.. sorry that showed up as Unknown. My name is A. MacKay.
I think I would choose Charlea – although we live in Alberta now, I'm from the west coast originally and she and my daughter (who I would give her to) both like to kayak!
I would love to give Taryn to my daughter!
I saw these dolls – they are fabulous and showcase all sorts of different areas of Canada. But of course – Taryn from Banff is the best! We would love this doll at our house!
Poppy would love this doll. Totally fits her personality and she's probably one of the only dolls Poppy would want to play with. Reminds me of the American Girl dolls only more adventurous and fitting for the outdoorsy kid.
I've heard of another company that makes dolls similar to this, but didn't realize there was a Canadian one! I would love to win this for my 3 littler adventurers 🙂
So cool! Love dolls with such a positivity! I'd love to give it to my little girl 🙂
My daughters would love this…which would mean I would be buying a second. Hahahaha. I actually didn't realize there was such an educational component to these dolls. Thanks for the review!
My girl is OBSESSED with dolls and this would be such a cool *mom approved* addition to her collection. We love to camp as a family!
Oh
My girls
Would LOVE Taryn! We aren't Canadian but we live close and are in the mountains too 🙂 Fingers crossed!!! Bookmarking this for wish lists too!!
