Well done, Mattel! It’s so important for kids to see representation such as this, and for our adolescent autism community members to have a doll that reflects similar lifestyles as they lead.

A great step in showcasing diversity and inclusion!

The new doll carries a pink fidget spinner that actually spins, wears pink noise-cancelling headphones to reduce sensory overload and holds a pink tablet that represents her augmentative and alternative communication, or AAC, device.
