Now here’s something you don’t see every day – an Al Roker or Steven Tyler Cabbage Patch Kid! Five different celebrities have  teamed up with JAKKS Pacific® and Cabbage Patch Kids® to raise funds for Children’s Action Network during National Adoption Month. The celebrities (Steven Tyler, Al Roker, Katherine Heigl, Kristin Chenoweth and Raven-Symoné) have been recreated as unique, one-of-a kind Cabbage Patch Kids up for auction with proceeds benefiting Children’s Action Network (CAN), a national adoption awareness organization dedicated to finding homes for children in the U.S. who are in foster care.

If you are interested in getting more information on this event, visit the Celebrity Cabbage Patch Kids auction page.

In 1983 a line of dolls, called Cabbage Patch Kids, captured the hearts of consumers and kicked off an unprecedented consumer craze. Since 1983, more than 115 million Cabbage Patch Kids have made their way in to the hearts and homes of children worldwide, making Cabbage Patch Kids the best-selling large doll of all time.

The Cabbage Patch Kids are celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a line of Limited Edition Cabbabge Patch Kids CPK 25th Anniversary Dolls that will only be available for a short period of time. Each one-of-a-kind ‘Kid will be an exact reproduction of one of the originals using the original sculpts and molds.

We had the opportunity to get one of these Limited Edition ‘Kids early and let me tell you, “Anna” is a bonified member of the doll family already. My daughter has had so much fun playing with her – taking her everywhere basically – even on bike rides, which I hear “Anna” loves!

If you had a special Cabbage Patch Kid in the 80s (or anytime since), you can visit the Cabbage Patch Kids website and post your own photos, memories, and video to share with others. The Cabbage Patch Kids website also has some fun games, printables, and activities that little ones will love, too!
