What is a "doll"?
A doll is a small, often human-shaped toy, usually made of plastic, fabric, or wood. Dolls are commonly used for imaginative play, where children pretend to care for them, dress them, or create stories. They can vary in size, appearance, and style, with some designed to look like babies, children, or adults. Dolls are often given to young children to encourage nurturing behavior and creativity.
Examples
My baby hugged his soft, plush doll tightly while sleeping.
