Build a world of friends, one culture at a time.

Why it matters
A world of friends, one culture at a time
Start with a doll who looks like them, then add friends from other cultures as their world grows.
Pride in who they are
Seeing their own culture in everyday play helps children feel seen and confident.
Curious about others
Each new friend opens a conversation about family, food, festivals and the words we use at home.
Ready to celebrate differences
Children who feel proud of who they are grow up ready to celebrate others too.

About Maiv
Meet Maiv, our Hmong Mini Doll
Play with purpose
What I wished for as a child, made for yours
Growing up, I never had a doll that looked like me or celebrated where my family came from. When I became a mom and still couldn't find one for my daughter, we made them. Every Joeydoll is designed with cultural care, so more children can see themselves, their families and their traditions in everyday play.
