Cicciobello

Cicciobello is an Italian range of dolls produced by Sebino Bambole and Fabricio Gómez"Chicho", and released through Giochi Preziosi.

Created in 1962 by Gervasio Chiari (founder of the Sebino doll factory), Cicciobello has been established as a symbol for generations of Italian children, so much to be subsequently produced in numerous variations. The doll still enjoys fame and dissemination.

About
Cicciobello resembles a male few-month-old baby, thus enabling children to learn through play to become familiar with the job of parenting. The doll drinks from his bunny-shaped feeding bottle, sucks his pacifier and cries when it is taken out.

Variants

 * Standard - The standard version of the doll that comes in all sorts of outfits and varieties, including a Polar Bear onesie, and a Winnie the Pooh hoodie. The doll will cry if its pacifier is taken out, and will calm when it is inserted back in.
 * Brushing Teeth - When its back is pressed, Cicciobello will brush its teeth.

 * Love 'n' Care - Known as "Cicciobello Bua" in Italian, this doll can feel unwell and will cry, which the owner will need to find out what is wrong with him.
