American Girl dolls are making a big impact in our house. In addition to playing with a fun doll, there is a whole story and character to go with each and every one of them. Meet American Girl Nanea Mitchell.
About Nanea Mitchell
Nanea Mitchell is the newest BeForever character; a Hawaiian girl growing up in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 1941.
The books are really what make the experience and get to know you about Nanea so much more important. They help teach history in a way that the girls appreciate.
American Girl Nanea’s story focuses on the bombing of Pearl Harbor and its aftermath, illuminating for girls today the courage and aloha spirit of islanders whose home-front experience during World War Two was unlike that of mainland Americans.
In creating the Nanea books and product collection, American Girl worked closely with a five-member advisory board—including an eye witness to the Pearl Harbor attack—who provided their expertise in Hawaiian culture and history to inform all aspects of Nanea’s development.
When my girls play with all of their American Girl dolls, they can share their stories with each other and learn more about them as they play. Plus, they can teach each other what they know about the history of each girl. They can also share each other’s talents and hobbies.
And their clothes. We can’t forget about their ability to share clothes and accessories because they are interchangeable. That is what friends do, after all.
Nanea comes with a great outfit, but of course, there are more options for her wardrobe and accessories in addition to the ones she might borrow from her friends!
Tied to Nanea’s debut, American Girl is supporting the American Red Cross and their Service to the Armed Forces mission to provide care and comfort to members of the military, veterans, and their families. From 8/21 to December 31, 2017, American Girl will match any customer donation, up to $75,000 maximum, made at americangirl.com or at any American Girl store in the U.S.
Thank you to American Girl for sending the Nanea. All thoughts are our own.
