This very pretty ballerina is Mattel's popular Dancerina, who was introduced in 1968. She stands 24 inches tall and is a battery operated dancing doll. I believe this size only came in a blond version. She does lovely pirouettes when the knob inside her plastic crown is pushed or pulled. She turns in either direction and can also dance in place on her tip-toes.
I asked for it from my parents for Christmas and I remember the one and only time I snooped for gifts...it was that year. I found my Dancerina under my parents bed. I was so riddled with guilt that I had snooped...I told on myself. To this day I can't look at this doll without feeling a bit guilty.
What was your favorite toy when you were a kid?
