Customizable Doll Gifts

The American Girl Gift Box Experience Shares Curated Surprises

Just in time for the start of the 2019 holiday season, American Girl is introducing its all-new Gift Box Experience, which is centered around personalization and providing kids with toys that match their own unique interests. Online, gift-givers are able to answer a few quiz questions to whittle down the choices from nearly 50 different dolls and accessories. When completing the online quiz, users are able to select a special occasion and describe the recipient with qualities like caring, curious and adventurous, and then choose dolls like Luciana, Blaire and other American Girls from the suggested choices.

Each berry-colored gift box comes with a doll, two hand-selected play packs with a special outfit and an accessory, as well as an illustrated story starter and a personalized letter from the gift-giver.
