Alternatives to Barbie?

My 3 year old girl loves role playing and has asked for dolls for Christmas. On a trip to family over the summer she picked out Barbies when brought to a toy shop with relatives and loves these. All the same I'm not overly keen on Barbies especially for a 3 year old and wondered what else I could do.

I have come across the Lundby dolls which I think are a great alternative for her age but wondered if anyone else has come across another option.

Many thanks!

Lottie Dolls!
They are great kid shaped barbie sized dolls, loads of different characters and looks, and lots of accessories. Comparable price wise too

Another vote for lottie dolls. My dgd loves hers.

@7days thank you! Agreed on lottie, she has one already, the pupil. Love all the female empowerment messages she came with :)

She's specifically asked for a mum, dad, baby etc. Lottie is a bit restricted that way.
