The Dollstory Project is an innovative educational initiative that harnesses the power of storytelling and visual aids to make history come alive in the classroom. In this project, we use a carefully curated collection of dolls and accompanying props to vividly recreate pivotal moments from the past. We create immersive and engaging displays that serve as teaching tools.
The Dollstory Project is designed to promote experiential learning and critical thinking. It encourages students to ask questions, analyze historical contexts, and develop empathy for the individuals who shaped our world. By interacting with these dolls and engaging in role-playing exercises, students gain a deeper understanding of history's complexities and the impact it has on our present.

My name is Sonya Larson, and I have been a Barbie collector for over 30 years. I am a substitute teacher, and I enjoy bringing dolls into the classroom as a learning tool. Creating interactive displays keeps the students engaged and excited about learning the material.
