Friend Indeed – Gemma & Charlie
Interview with Gemma and Charlie
Meet Gemma and Charlie, two of our new Friend Indeed dolls. With their own unique style, each one is a reminder for kids to be themselves and never be afraid of standing out. Gemma likes the ocean and playing dress up in her mom’s old dance costumes. Charlie likes comic books, writing in her journal and bright nail polish. Read on to find out more about Gemma and Charlie in our exclusive doll interviews.
As we continue to share what makes each Friend Indeed doll unique, we encourage you to share what makes your kids unique using the hashtag #youaremagic.
Every individual has something unique and special to offer the world. Their own type of magic. What traits and talents that you possess make you the most proud?
GEMMA: I am most proud of my kindness. I am the first one my friends go to when they need help. My goal is to always be kind to all living things.
What’s your favorite season and why?
GEMMA: Spring. Everyone is in a good mood! I look at little flower buds opening and it feels like the whole world is waking up.
If you had an entire day to do anything you wanted, what would it be?
GEMMA: I would wake up really early and my mom would have the day off and make pancakes for the two of us. Since she has the day off we can sit and talk for as long as we want. Then I would ride my bike to the park and sit under the big tree and read a book or write in my diary. The park is in between my house and Charlie’s so I would go over to her house afterward and Lydia and Charlotte would already be there. We would all go to the zoo! Being with my favorite people is always my favorite thing to do. After the zoo I would leave and go to dance class. I would want it to be a dress rehearsal for an upcoming recital. Those are my favorite days in dance class!
What’s your all-time favorite food?
GEMMA: Swedish fish! I have such a sweet tooth. I would only eat candy if I could.
What would you like to be when you grow up and how do you think that’ll impact and change the world?
GEMMA: I want to be a dancer, paleontologist or a museum curator when I grow up. I hope that I can show everyone how important the past is, how much we can learn from it, and how it effects who we are today.
Every individual has something unique and special to offer the world. Their own type of magic. What traits and talents that you possess make you the most proud?
CHARLIE: I am most proud of my fearlessness to express myself. I am never afraid to be myself whether it’s through my clothes, personal style or my writing.
What’s your favorite season and why?
CHARLIE: Summer. It’s so bright. The sun, the colors of clothes people wear. You can go swimming. And spend weekdays with friends since school is out.
If you had an entire day to do anything you wanted, what would it be?
CHARLIE: I would want to have all my friends sleep at my house. We could sleep as late as we wanted! Then we would go to the pool. I could spend ALL DAY swimming. We could even order pretzels and snow cones at the concession stand. At night we could all go see a movie. After the movie I would want to look up lots of trivia about the movie. My friends don’t always like doing that, but I love it!
What’s your all-time favorite food?
CHARLIE: Pizza. Because it’s delicious and you’re usually eating it with friends!
What would you like to be when you grow up and how do you think that’ll impact and change the world?
CHARLIE: I want to be a writer or movie director when I grow up. I think it will impact the world because what I have to say is important. I will take the time to learn the best way to share my message and hopefully it will reach a lot of people and make them think.
