White dolls aren’t just for white kids, and Black dolls aren’t just for Black kids; all children need some diversity represented in the toys they play with. Children of color often already have a wide variety of light-skinned toys because those are the most commonly available options. But chances are, if your child is white, the vast majority of their toys have a skin color representative of their own.

There’s also a good chance that white children are already surrounded by an abundance of white in their neighborhoods, their classrooms, their social circles, and in the media they consume.
