Kookle Nesting Dolls Craft Great Gifts

Beverly Hills, CA, February 09, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Whether it's a blustery, stormy afternoon, or simply your turn for a playdate, kids need to be kept occupied with more than just the TV or computer. They need to be involved in a fun activity that invites group participation.

An afternoon with Kookle Nesting Dolls engages children's imagination and encourages self expression. These charming wooden dolls are borrowed from a Russian tradition that has captivated and delighted children of all ages. This artisan folk art that nestles the dolls one inside the other in graduated sizes, is now available as a gift set with a color chart and paint set. Children, and the young at heart, can now express themselves artistically - and make their own traditions.

The Nesting Dolls are the first in a series of gift items that symbolize cultures from around the world. In an attempt to bridge cultural differences, Kookle Gifts founder Michelle Situ has delivered a new way to experience different cultures and share them with friends and family as gifts to commemorate their special occasions. "My travels have shown me so many unique local arts and crafts, I began to see this as a way to bring my trips home and make them into gifts so the cultural experience spreads," Situ said. "It's a way for the world to become easier to understand that isn't technological."

Kookle Nesting dolls are available online at www.kooklegifts.com and at fine stores throughout the US.
