Lindsey (2001-2002)
Lindsey Bergman was the very first Girl of the Year doll to be offered by American Girl. She has shoulder-length curly auburn hair, sparkling blue eyes that open and close, a freckled face, and a lively smile. Lindsey has a soft cloth body and a head and limbs made of sturdy vinyl. Her arms and legs are posable and her head can turn from side to side. Lindsey wears a green T-shirt that shows her love for dogs, as well as a khaki skirt, blue sweater, multicolor striped leggings, and red suede shoes.Lindsey has a few special accessories designed just for her, such as her scooter and helmet. The scooter has navy blue handles and the standing board is a matching navy with a red and green butterfly on it. The helmet also has a butterfly picture in the same colors. Lindsey also has her very own laptop computer, complete with carrying case. Since she was only offered by the American Girl company for a limited time, her collection is small, but she is the same size as all the other Girls of the Year dolls, so you can find her items from their collections as well. You can also purchase clothing, accessories, and furniture for her from two of American Girl's other collections, the historical dolls and Just Like You dolls. Since these collections are large, you can easily expand Lindsey's wardrobe and enhance playtime with other special items.
