I think all the dead ends are a reminder that they were just trying stuff out," Gerwig told the New Yorker.Here's what to know about the discontinued dolls.<h2>Midge</h2><div type="image" title="Emerald Fennell plays Midge in Barbie" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331302" hostid="261" sizebytes="83608"></div>Midge Hadley was first introduced in 1963 as Barbie's best friend.<a href="https://www.polygon.com/23671465/barbie-movie-allan-doll-midge-discontinued-friends" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> According to Barbie experts</a>, she was given freckles and less makeup to deflect concerns that Barbie was too adult and too sexy.The original Midge dolls were discontinued after 1965, <a href="https://www.polygon.com/23671465/barbie-movie-allan-doll-midge-discontinued-friends" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to Polygon</a> — but Midge returned in 1988 and lasted long enough to<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080411215116/http://kattisdolls.net/midge/midge_weddingday.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> marry a groom edition of her own boyfriend Allan in the '90s.</a> Barbie and Ken were there to celebrate the day.Midge's downfall began in 2002 when Mattel released a pregnant version of the doll whose belly could be removed from her body and opened up to reveal a baby inside. That caused an uproar among parents who believed the doll promoted teen pregnancy.The controversy prompted<a href="https://money.cnn.com/2002/12/25/news/midge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Walmart to pull the pregnant doll from its shelves.</a> Mattel eventually produced another version of Midge postpartum.There is a distinct reference to this in "Barbie" when Helen Mirren's narrator says, "Let's not show Midge, actually. She was discontinued by Mattel because a pregnant doll is just too weird." Midge makes a few appearances in the film anyway, but is often put in the background.<h2>Allan</h2><div type="image" title="Michael Cera plays Allan in Barbie" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331304" hostid="261" sizebytes="62518"></div>Allan was created as Midge's boyfriend and Ken's best friend in 1964 so the two couples could<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK8pXiqFQ7g&amp;ab_channel=Teen-AgeFashionModelBARBIE" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> go on double dates</a>. The original Allan doll wore a bright striped shirt like<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/michael-cera-wasnt-added-to-the-barbie-group-chat-2023-7"> Cera</a> does in the movie.Allan was named after Allen Segal, Barbara Handler's husband. Handler's mother, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/who-is-ruth-handler-barbie-creator-tax-evasion-mastectomy-2023-7">Ruth Handler</a>, created Barbie and named the titular doll after her daughter, according to<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/11/magazine/greta-gerwig-barbie.html?searchResultPosition=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> The New York Times</a>. Both Midge and Allan could fit into the clothing of Barbie and Ken. But Allan's marketing tagline, "All of Ken's clothes fit him," backfired when it led to rumors that Ken and Allan were in a homosexual relationship, according to<a href="https://www.attitude.co.uk/culture/film-tv/the-coming-out-story-of-the-barbie-movies-allan-440855/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Attitude.</a>Allan was discontinued around the same time as Midge, but has occasionally reappeared in Barbie lore. In "Barbie," Allan is the biggest cheerleader of the Kens and is mostly ignored by the Barbies.<h2>Growing Up Skipper</h2><div type="image" title="side-by-side of Hannah Khalique-Brown and a Growing Up Skipper Doll" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331306" hostid="261" sizebytes="152100"></div>The movie makes multiple references to Skipper, Barbie's younger sister. However, in the scene where Barbie and the humans meet several discontinued dolls, a special version of Skipper is present: Growing Up Skipper.<a href="https://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/barbie-doll-controversies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to Glamour</a>, Growing Up Skipper was created in 1975 as a way to teach kids about growing up and puberty. The doll would get taller and grow bigger breasts when you moved one of its arms backward.Mattel also gave her a friend, Growing Up Ginger, before ultimately discontinuing both.<h2>Video Girl Barbie</h2><div type="image" title="side-by-side of Mette Towley and a Video Girl Barbie doll" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331558" hostid="261" sizebytes="81432"></div>In the scene, the humans also meet Video Girl Barbie, a Barbie doll fitted with a video camera inside her. Released by Mattel in 2010, Video Girl Barbie could record 30 minutes of video and stream it to a computer.Months after the doll's release, the FBI released a "cyber crime alert" stating that it could be used for child pornography,<a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/fbi-issues-alert-over-barbie-video-girl-doll/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> CBS reported.</a>Mattel released their own statement saying: "The FBI is not reporting that anything has happened. Steve Dupre from the FBI Sacramento field office has confirmed there have been no incidents of this doll being used as anything other than as intended. Mattel products are designed with children and their best interests in mind. Many of Mattel's employees are parents themselves and we understand the importance of child safety — it is our number one priority."The doll was ultimately discontinued in 2012.<h2>Teen Talk Barbie</h2><div type="image" title="Side by side of Marisa Abela and Teen Talk Barbie." height="1080" width="1440" msid="108331559" hostid="261" sizebytes="80510"></div>Next to Growing up Skipper in the scene is Teen Talk Barbie, a blonde-haired doll who doesn't have lines. Each real-life doll, released in 1992, was programmed with four of 270 available phrases that it spoke when a button was pushed.In 1992, the American Association of University Women and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics criticized one of the doll's phrases, "Math class is tough." They said the phrase reinforced sexist stereotypes of women and discouraged young girls from pursuing the subject, and Mattel apologized.The company removed the phrase from future dolls and offered a swap for customers who already owned it.A year later, a Manhattan-based performance art group called the Barbie Liberation Organization (BLO), bought Teen Talk Barbie dolls and replaced their voiceboxes with one from GI Joe dolls before putting them back on shelves.Unlike other Barbie dolls on this list, Mattel never discontinued the doll.<h2>Sugar Daddy Ken</h2><div type="image" title="Rob Brydon plays Sugar Daddy Ken in Barbie" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331560" hostid="261" sizebytes="46206"></div>There are also two discontinued Kens that take part in the scene with all the forgotten dolls. The first is Sugar Daddy Ken, a modern doll portrayed by British actor Rob Brydon.Sugar Daddy Ken was created in 2009 for Barbie's 50th anniversary as part of the adult doll collection line for Mattel. Despite the suggestive name — Sugar Daddy refers to an older man who pays a younger woman for companionship — Sugar supposedly refers to this Ken doll's dog, a white West Highland terrier.Despite the controversy surrounding his name, Mattel spokesperson<a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/barbies-sugar-daddy-ken-doll-raises-eyebrows/story?id=8952641" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Michelle Chidoni told ABC at the time</a>: "At the end of the day, this collection is targeted toward adults. While the name of the doll does refer back to the dog, I think people are going to interpret it as they want to interpret it."<h2>Earring Magic Ken</h2><div type="image" title="side-by-side of Tom Stourton and a Earring Magic Ken" height="960" width="1280" msid="108331561" hostid="261" sizebytes="52782"></div>Earring Magic Ken also appears in his signature purple vest.In the 1990s, Mattel attempted to give Ken an updated look. This led to the creation of Earring Magic Ken in 1993, a Ken doll that wore a purple mesh shirt, a pleather vest, a necklace, and an earring in one ear.<a href="https://www.dazeddigital.com/life-culture/article/56336/1/ken-has-always-been-gay-barbie-earring-magic-ryan-gosling" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to Dazed</a>, the doll was a big hit with the gay community. But the doll also received widespread backlash for its perceived association with the LGBTQ+ community and thus was eventually discontinued and recalled.According to Dazed, critics pointed out that the necklace looked like a cock ring, a sex toy."We're not in the business of putting cock rings into the hands of little girls... It's a necklace," Lisa McKendall, Mattel's head of marketing and communications,<a href="https://chicagoreader.com/news-politics/ken-comes-out/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> told the Chicago Reader</a> at the time. "It holds charms he can share with Barbie. C'mon, this is a doll designed for little girls, something like that would be entirely inappropriate."<h2>Tanner the dog</h2><div type="image" title="Tanner the dog in the &quot;Barbie&quot; movie and in real life." height="1080" width="1440" msid="108331562" hostid="261" sizebytes="65182"></div>The final member of the discontinued gang is Tanner the dog, a yellow retriever who eats small brown food pellets, poops them out, and then eats them again. It was released in 2006 as a companion for Barbie.Besides the slightly inappropriate toy design, Mattel had to recall roughly <a href="https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2007/mattel-recalls-barbie-and-tanner-magnetic-toys-due-to-magnets-coming-loose" target="_blank" rel="noopener">683,000 Tanner toys</a> because a small magnet inside the "scooper" accessory could come loose and cause harm if swallowed or aspirated by small children. According to <a href="https://m.service.mattel.com/uk/Technical/TechnicalProductDetail?prodno=J9472&amp;siteid=27&amp;catid=447" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mattel's website</a>, the dog toy was officially discontinued in 2010.

Many of Mattel's employees are parents themselves and we understand the importance of child safety — it is our number one priority."The doll was ultimately discontinued in 2012.<h2>Sugar Daddy Ken was controversial due to his suggestive name</h2><div type="image" title="Rob Brydon plays Sugar Daddy Ken in Barbie" height="960" width="1280" msid="102024455" hostid="261"></div>There are also two discontinued Kens that take part in the scene with all the forgotten dolls. The first is Sugar Daddy Ken, a modern doll portrayed by British actor Rob Brydon.Sugar Daddy Ken was created in 2009 for Barbie's 50th anniversary as part of the adult doll collection line for Mattel. Despite the suggestive name – Sugar Daddy refers to an older man who pays a younger woman for companionship – Sugar supposedly refers to this Ken doll's dog, a white West Highland terrier.Despite the controversy surrounding his name, Mattel spokesperson <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/barbies-sugar-daddy-ken-doll-raises-eyebrows/story?id=8952641">Michelle Chidoni told ABC at the time</a>: "At the end of the day, this collection is targeted toward adults. While the name of the doll does refer back to the dog, I think people are going to interpret it as they want to interpret it."<h2>Earring Magic Ken was discontinued and recalled after being associated with the gay community</h2><div type="image" title="side-by-side of Tom Stourton and a Earring Magic Ken" height="960" width="1280" msid="102024457" hostid="261"></div>Earring Magic Ken also appears in his signature purple vest.In the 1990s, Mattel attempted to give Ken an updated look. This led to the creation of Earring Magic Ken in 1993, a Ken doll that wore a purple mesh shirt, a pleather vest, a necklace, and an earring in one ear.<a href="https://www.dazeddigital.com/life-culture/article/56336/1/ken-has-always-been-gay-barbie-earring-magic-ryan-gosling">According to Dazed</a>, the doll was a big hit with the gay community. But the doll also received widespread backlash for its perceived association with the LGBTQ+ community and thus was eventually discontinued and recalled.According to Dazed, critics pointed out that the necklace looked like a cock ring, a sex toy."We're not in the business of putting cock rings into the hands of little girls... It's a necklace," Lisa McKendall, Mattel's head of marketing and communications, <a href="https://chicagoreader.com/news-politics/ken-comes-out/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told the Chicago Reader</a> at the time. "It holds charms he can share with Barbie. C'mon, this is a doll designed for little girls, something like that would be entirely inappropriate."

<ul class="summary-list"><li>When I learned my mom had saved my Barbie dolls, I worried about letting my daughter play with them.</li><li>I was concerned that playing with Barbies would negatively affect her self esteem.</li></ul>A few years ago, on a visit to my parents' house, my mom emerged from the attic with a box filled to the brim with my old Barbies. The dolls were in varying condition, from like-new to well-loved to victimized-by-puppy-teeth.The miniature clothing <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.insider.com/barbie-margot-robbie-outfits-comparison-doll-photos-2023-7">put my own closet to shame</a>: there were lacy wedding gowns, a lifeguard swimsuit, stretchy workout outfits, cocktail dresses, business blazers. And then, of course, there were the accessories. Tiny plastic shoes in every color imaginable. Handbags. Jewelry. Tennis rackets. A camera. There was even a Ken (yes, he counts as an accessory).<div type="image" title="Image of 5 dolls laying on a rock. The doll on the left is a Ken doll with short blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a blue and white striped t-shirt and white pants. The Barbie on the right has light brown hair, blue eyes, and wears a multi-color stripe shirt and jean shorts. On top of both of them lies a blonde Barbie with blue eyes and red lips, wearing s purple shirt with flouncy sleeves and a multi-color dotted pattern, along with jean shorts. On her left and right are two baby Barbie dolls. The one on the left is a boy with dark brown hair and dark eyes, with a neon green shirt that has a yellow logo on it and pink shorts. The other baby doll is a girl with long blonde hair and an orange dress that has a cartoon giraffe. To the left of the dolls a toddler's hand rests on the rock and the toddler's shadow falls on the dolls. The rest of the rock is in the sun. " height="4032" width="3024" msid="102812121" hostid="261" sizebytes="301180"></div>As I was going through the box, visceral memories that had formed decades ago in my childhood bedroom came flooding in. All the times I would make my younger brother play with me, the way the green glow-in-the-dark stars contrasted against the pink fabric of the Dream Glow dress, how you'd have to bend a plastic arm to get certain outfits to fit just right. It turned out that my mom had <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.insider.com/how-barbie-dolls-changed-evolution-2018-3">saved all of my Barbies for decades</a>, and was finally giving them to me so I could pass them down to my own kids to create similar memories when I was ready.<h2>I wanted to thoughtfully introduce Barbie to my daughter</h2>But I wasn't sure when I'd be ready to hand all this down — my daughter was not yet five and I worried about her playing with my old dolls, which, when I was growing up, only <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.insider.com/plus-size-mom-fatphobic-body-image-issue-acceptance-2023-2">came in one body type: tall and thin</a>. And as a young mother grappling with balancing work and motherhood who had read one too many articles on "having it all," I needed time to think about how I was going to thoughtfully introduce Barbie — who supposedly signified that you could be anything — to my daughter, who I didn't want to feel the pressure women so often feel to be everything.My American Girl doll was a different kind of hand-me-down. American Girls are, well, girls; they're girls from history, to boot. Barbie, on the other hand, is a grown woman. If American Girl dolls were a playful way of looking into the past, for kids, Barbie dolls were an imaginative way of looking into the future. And I wasn't sure I was ready for my daughter to imagine an adult life through this specific lens.<h2>When I finally gave my kids the dolls, they loved them</h2>A few years passed. My daughter got a little older, and my husband and I had a son. One day during a particularly rainy vacation, I found myself pulling out the Barbie bin. The kids proceeded to play for hours with them on the beach. The Barbies went swimming in the Atlantic, they climbed trees, they took on action figures. It turned out that my kids loved playing with them together so much that a few months later, they asked for a few more to round out their collection for Christmas. (I drew the line at the massive, pricey Dreamhouse.)Over the next few months, they played almost exclusively with Barbies. They created an entire commune made up of a mix of my 30-year-old Barbies and their new ones: dolls of different races, sizes, professions, and ages, all living together in varying family makeups in the cubed storage system in our playroom.As they played with the same dolls my brother and I had played with decades ago, plus their new additions, I felt sentimental at the idea that one day maybe their kids would play with them, too, and have this shared <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.insider.com/grew-up-knowing-barbie-was-feminist-thanks-to-my-mom-2023-8">experience that transcended generations.</a><h2>My children didn't care how Barbie looked, they just wanted to play</h2>I realized as I watched them building their Barbie world that maybe I had put too much weight on this toy and on the "idea" of Barbie — my kids simply wanted to play make-believe together with plastic human dolls they could dress. After all, isn't that why I had played with Barbies as a kid? I, too, had loved imagining being an adult, choosing my own outfits, deciding which job I was going to do that day, and the independence that came with all that.And although the Barbie of the 80s had a long way to go as far as inclusivity, the Barbies of today had made a bit of progress, and allowed my kids to play make-believe in a world that looked a little more like their own.One day while they were playing with their Barbies, the kids called me over. They were pretending that one of the dolls was coming home from the hospital with her twin babies and they wanted me to be her. As I played the familiar role of doting new mom, I realized that in all my worrying, I had done the thing that we adults are so good at doing: I had forgotten what it was like to be a kid. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.insider.com/mom-shares-joy-taking-a-new-hobby-alongside-her-kids-2023-5">I had forgotten how to play.</a>

I worried that playing with Barbie dolls would hurt my kids' self-esteem. But to them, she's just a toy.

But the doll quickly took off on social media, becoming a cultural icon and arguably<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/17/style/qai-qai-serena-williams-alexis-ohanian.html"> America's most important doll</a>.Now, Qai Qai dolls are available for purchase through Amazon, providing much-needed diversity in the baby doll market. Williams announced the Qai Qai release on Instagram on October 15, saying that in the two years since the doll came into the public sphere, Williams and Ohanian have been asked thousands of times where people can purchase their own version of the doll. Over time, the couple realized that having a dark-skinned doll option is important to a lot of families.

Samantha Knowles, director of the documentary film "<a href="https://vimeo.com/332658888">Why Do You Have Black Dolls?</a>," said that with manufacturers overwhelmingly making white baby dolls, families are left with few options for representation. "Black girls have had to play with white dolls for a very long time because they had no other choice," she said. That's starting to change.

Chris Nee, the creator of Doc McStuffins, recognized the importance in a 2014 interview."The kids who are of color see her as an African-American girl, and that's really big for them, and I think a lot of other kids don't see her color, and that's wonderful as well," he said.

The <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/woman-cup-survived-car-fire-offered-new-car-bottle-brand-2023-11">40oz "Quencher" cup</a> with a handle and straw blew up in popularity in 2022, helped by blogs and influencers on social media.On January 1, Stanley released a new magenta color for Valentine's Day. It's exclusively at Target — and a video of people ransacking the shelves where a hapless employee pleaded "Two per guest!" went viral.<blockquote class="tiktok-embed" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@victoria_robino_26/video/7318781471873977646" data-video-id="7318781471873977646" data-embed-from="oembed" style="max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a target="_blank" title="@victoria_robino_26" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@victoria_robino_26?refer=embed">@victoria_robino_26</a> <a title="fyp" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/fyp?refer=embed">#fyp</a> <a title="fypシ゚viral" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/fyp%E3%82%B7%E3%82%9Aviral?refer=embed">#fypシ゚viral</a> <a title="target" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/target?refer=embed">#target</a> <a title="targetfinds" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/targetfinds?refer=embed">#targetfinds</a> <a title="stanleycup" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/stanleycup?refer=embed">#stanleycup</a> <a title="stanley" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/stanley?refer=embed">#stanley</a> <a title="stanleytarget" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/stanleytarget?refer=embed">#stanleytarget</a> <a title="valentinesday" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/valentinesday?refer=embed">#valentinesday</a> <a title="stanleyvalentinesday" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/stanleyvalentinesday?refer=embed">#stanleyvalentinesday</a> <a target="_blank" title="♬ original sound - Victoria Robino" href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-7318781616396995370?refer=embed">♬ original sound - Victoria Robino</a> </section> </blockquote> But is it possible that the trend is peaking, and Stanleys are on their way out?Casey Lewis, a youth consumer trends analyst who writes the newsletter <a target="_blank" href="https://afterschool.substack.com/">After School</a>, thinks that may be the case. I asked Lewis what she observed from watching hours of TikTok videos where Gen Z women (mostly) showed off their "Christmas haul" on December 26.This interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.What was the top item in these Gen Z Christmas haul TikToks?<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gen-z-kylie-jenner-gigi-hadid-ugg-boots-cool-fashion-2023-2">Mini platform Uggs</a> were wildly popular, and there was a ton of Lululemon, Brandy Melville, and expensive skincare — but nothing was more popular than the Stanley tumbler.The vast majority of hauls included at least one Stanley.Was this a surprise, or did you expect it to be a popular item given how trendy it is? How long has it been trendy?It was not a surprise that the Stanley was a popular gift; I did a similar haul report last year, and the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/woman-cup-survived-car-fire-offered-new-car-bottle-brand-2023-11">Stanley was very popular</a> then, too. What was surprising was the fervor a water bottle caused, especially among tweens.When I was 11, I asked for dolls. Today's 11-year-olds asked for Stanley tumblers. I remember crying when I got an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/american-girl-dolls-history-evolution-brand-2020-1">American Girl doll</a>, so I understand that gifts can elicit emotional reactions in young people, but seeing Gen Alpha kids sobbing over water bottles is pretty surprising. At least the kids are hydrating!What was the age range you were noticing most getting these Stanley cups?Mostly college-age and younger.I first became aware of the Stanley cup as a sort of elder millennial suburban mom thing. (To be fair, this may reflect my own bias.) Is it possible this is a trend that trickled down from millennials to Gen Z instead of the other way?Oh, that's interesting. Hmm.It's definitely possible that it trickled down from millennial moms, though that kind of defies how trends usually play out — in my experience, most trends start with cool youth, and then once they trickle down (to younger kids) and up (to adults), the cool youth move on.So in the lifetime of a trend cycle for a status item like a Stanley cup: Where are we in the cycle? Are they on their way out?They are absolutely on their way out. This is peak Stanley. There's no up from here!What about how, like, middle schoolers suddenly having them makes it seem uncool for the older teens and 20-somethings?Exactly that! It's like <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/drunk-elephant-protini-new-lotion-review">Drunk Elephant skincare</a>.When young kids and tweens adopt a trend or product, teens and older Gen Z distance themselves.Uh oh, does this mean Drunk Elephant isn't cool anymore?!<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/drunk-elephant-founder-tiffany-masterson-shares-tips-for-success-2019-9">Drunk Elephant isn't cool</a> anymore. :/ In 2021, I interviewed Gen Zers about what skincare they were buying, and a 15-year-old told me Drunk Elephant is overhyped and for "12-year-olds that want to be 15-year-olds." Ouch.So what might be the next cool water bottle? Or will there even be another trendy water bottle? Maybe everyone will just drink from, like … a glass? Or will people move onto, like, status pencils or something?It seems like the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/stanley-cups-versus-owala-water-bottles-2024-1">Owala</a> maybe? That's the consensus in TikTok comments.But honestly, I think you're right in that there won't be a next "It" water bottle. Because I think it's not about water bottles, really, now that tweens are into it.I think now the Stanley trend is more like <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/rise-and-fall-beanie-babies-ty-warner-2021-8">collecting Beanie Babies</a>. It's a flex!

Is the Stanley water bottle over? A Gen Z trend forecaster thinks so.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Molly McGovern is the president and founder of <a href="https://www.friendshiproom.net/">Friendship Room</a>, a nonprofit in Steubenville, Ohio.</li><li>McGovern also collects toys during the holidays, and Insider asked what common mistakes people make.</li></ul>This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Molly McGovern, the president and founder of <a href="https://www.friendshiproom.net/">Friendship Room</a> in Steubenville, Ohio, about collecting toys for the holidays and the mistakes her organization sees. It's been edited for length and clarity. Since we opened our blue doors in 2014, Friendship Room has been a house of hospitality that meets the immediate needs of anybody who comes to us. During the holidays, we collect toys for the children of our guests.After nearly 10 years of helping parents provide gifts for their children, here are some of the most common mistakes we see in donations.<h2>Only focusing on little ones</h2>Buying baby toys is much more fun for donors than buying items for older children and teens, but these are the kids who are most often forgotten — the names who are left on angel trees. And a baby is so much more understanding! You can literally give a baby a balloon and they won't know the difference, but an older child will. The teens deserve holiday presents, too.<h2>Pre-wrapping gifts</h2>Unless the organization you're donating to specifies to bring wrapped presents, leave the item unwrapped. When donors bring us wrapped items, we have to unwrap them to make sure that they're in good shape, appropriate, and check just what the item is before we can pass along to the recipients. Additionally, even though the gifts are donated, the parents of these children deserve to experience the magic of wrapping their own child's present — of being the one who prepares the holiday celebration for their own child. We encourage our donors to also bring wrapping paper and tape to give the parents so that they can be a part of the gift-giving process, even if they can't afford to buy the gifts. We want to make sure as much as possible that the parents of these children get to sign the cards, whether they decide to give the gift from them or from Santa Claus. But we do not believe that our names should be on these presents. <h2>Putting your own agenda on a gift</h2>Even though we are Christians and model our organization after Servant of God, Dorothy Day, who founded the Catholic Worker Movement, the holidays aren't a time to attach an agenda.To that end, unless specifically requested by a child, we ask that donations not be religious in nature. Sometimes people put notes on the presents that say "Jesus loves you."Not everyone we serve is religious, or even Christian! <h2>Donating items with missing pieces</h2>So many times, I will get calls from donors who say: "I have very nice toys to donate," then they bring us puzzles with five pieces missing.I always have to assemble puzzles and board games and other sets to make sure they're complete. I have to just throw them away if they're not, which is what the donors should have done instead of bringing them to me. Some folks have said: "Well it's good enough" or "It's better to have something rather than nothing." I say no! Just because people are poor doesn't mean they're stupid. Once, a donor said: "The child can just pretend the other pieces are there." But that's not OK. It's not a materialistic thing; it's a human thing. No one needs to be grateful for someone else's castoffs. <h2>Thinking underprivileged kids don't deserve brand names</h2>We get a lot of criticism for this one, but if a child wants an American Girl Doll, they don't want the knockoff. When my own children were little, I had the time and flexibility to scour Goodwill in the summer for gently used brand name items, but that was a privilege not everyone has. We ask our guests to tell us at least one gift their child wants specifically, and maybe we can make it happen. An Xbox, an American Girl doll, Air Force 1 sneakers, why not? People are so much more acutely aware of their own poverty around the holidays, especially children. So we want to provide that one moment that communicates that they are heard, valued, and that there is nothing wrong with wanting the same stuff their friends will find under the tree. <h2>Teaching our children that those in need are less deserving</h2>A lot of times, people tell me that they've asked their children to clean out their broken stuff to make room for their new gifts and bring the broken ones down to us at Friendship Room for the poor children. But if your child doesn't want it because it no longer works, no one's child wants it! We need to look at the message we're conveying to our own children. This is one of the biggest mistakes we make, because it delineates "them" from "us." Even in trying to teach our children generosity of spirit, we're telling them that these children are less than they are just because of their financial circumstances. That's not the lesson they need.

I help parents provide holiday gifts for their children. Here are the 6 biggest toy donation mistakes I see.

45. Heard It Through the Grapevine

Amazon just published <a href="http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=176060&amp;p=irol-newsArticle&amp;ID=2002024">its post-Christmas press release</a>.
