You've come a long way, baby canoe.ca Toys used to be admired for their moving parts; this year it's the private parts that are causing a stir By DENNIS BUECKERT -- Canadian Press OTTAWA - The new Corolle Paul and Virginie bath babies are fully waterproof, smell like vanilla, and mark a revolution of sorts as the first anatomically correct dolls to hit the mass market in Canada. The Canadian Toy Testing Council has given Paul and Virginie the coveted "best bet" designation in its annual Toy Report released Wednesday. The council is especially impressed at the enthusiastic reaction from young males. "Boys are playing with these dolls," raves Marie Levine, spokeswoman for the non-profit agency, in an interview. "I know that one of my testers could not believe it. Her son could identify with the male doll. "It just opened up a whole new area of play. She was very, very excited."
