Mrs. Goodbee Talking Dollhouse

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.


I have vowed to raise children who are generous, care about others and want to do good. In today’s media drenched society, however, it can be difficult to keep a young one’s focus off of themselves. It is this reason that I am a huge fan of The Caring Corners Mrs. Goodbee dollhouse by Learning Curve. It is the first interactive dollhouse that truly teaches sharing, caring and responsibility.

The house opens up to reveal twelve rooms, with six on each side, allowing plenty opportunity for friends to play with Mrs. Goodbee together. Mrs. Goodbee


The Caring Corners Mrs. Goodbee dollhouse engages children with more than 400 playful activities, songs, words and sounds. As children create, explore and use their imaginations, Mrs. Goodbee comes to life to model and reinforce positive social and emotional skills – and encourage kind-hearted deeds all around her house.

The caring and sharing doesn’t stop there. At the back of the dollhouse is a Good Deeds Garden waiting to be adorned with stickers of flowers and bugs. The dollhouse comes with a pack of stickers to be rewarded to your child after doing a good deed. The sticker can be placed in the garden, adding color and fun.

The child can then visit the online Good Deeds Garden to use the sticker codes to unlock fun games and activities. Your child can customize the look of her online character, choosing from several colors for clothes, hair and eyes. Their character can then play games at the fountain, garden, orchard and maze.

Caring Corners has also teamed up with Goodwill Industries to promote giving. They encourage the child to fill up the box that Mrs. Goodbee comes in with gently used toys and clothes to be donated to Goodwill. Their efforts are rewarded with a special certificate that includes a special code to unlock a surprise in their online Good Deeds Garden.

Caring Corners Mrs. Goodbee dollhouse is the perfect toy for helping your child to learn important values: empathy, caring, sharing and giving.

I have enjoyed watching my daughter and son play with Mrs. Goodbee together. My daughter gets exceptionally happy when Mrs. Goodbee thanks her for helping the baby fall asleep or for taking care of the pet dog. And she beams each time Mrs. Goodbee says something new.

The fun never seems to stop with Mrs. Goodbee.

We have one Caring Corners Mrs. Goodbee Dollhouse, retail value $74.99, to give away to one lucky reader. The dollhouse comes with a little girl, baby and dog. The house also comes with a few pieces of furniture. Additional doll packs and accessories can be purchased separately.

Learning Curve is also generously donating one Mrs. Goodbee Dollhouse to our Under The Tree Program. Thank You, Learning Curve.

  432. We have looked at doll houses for our daughter for Christmas. We had originally planned on getting the Loving Family one and then came across this one. I really like it and think it teaches children something. Thanks!!

  455. Id love to win this for my granddaughter because it is both educational and whimsical at the same time

  461. What a wonderful idea! We give our gently used toys, books, and clothes to Goodwill and my daughter would love a dollhouse that incorporated the same ideas!

    Thanks!

  464. It amazes me how many toys these days are also tied to the internet. Three year olds today know how to use a computer better than most of their great grandkids. Imagine what the world will be like when our three year olds are parents of three year olds of their own.

  469. My granddaughters would absolutely love this and I think teaching the caring and sharing is so very important. I love that they are encouraged to donate their gently used toys.

    Thank you for this giveaway and for the Under the Tree Program.

  482. I had not heard of this dollhouse before, but am very impressed. Thanks for such a great giveaway. My daughter would love this.

  485. We don’t have a lot of money for Christmas this year. My daughter would be thrilled to have this!

  487. My niece would love this!!!! She is at the age now where she is learning about sharing and caring. Thanks for the chance!!!

  491. My grand daughter would love this so much! She talks about it because it’s advertised alot!

    Thank you!
    Karen P.

  492. My 4yo niece and her 2 sisters that are 2yo (they are triplets with a brother) would all love this!! thanks!!!

  502. I was looking at this at Walmart the other day. Christmas is going to be tight so winning this would be so cool! Thanks for a great contest!

  507. Why don’t they ever make anything cool like this for boys? I suppose my niece will be a happy girl

  527. I have been off work on disability with no benefits kicking in so I couldn’t get this for my granddaughter but would love to. Thank You so much for at least the chance of winning one for her

  532. If we won this, our family would give it to two little girls (they’re sister, just turned five and seven years old since August), that go to the same church we do. They just lost their Dad to suicide, and their favorite Uncle was just diagnosed with Malignant Brain Cancer. Their divorced mom was trying to go to college to get a degree in Business, so she could get a good job to finish raising them, but it will be tougher now, since they’ll be no child support coming in. The older little girl has to deal with physical handicaps that are both visable and not. She is not mentally delayed however, and seems very bright. I think she wants to grow up to be a writer of children’s books. These little girls need a break. Life’s been pretty hard for them lately. God Bless everyone.

  538. I’m a big kid at heart. It would be hard to give this away. But Xmas is coming up so I’m sure I will manage.

  546. My little girl has been saying she wants this everytime it comes on TV! How sweet it would be if I won it! YAY! Thank you so much!

  549. My daughter just saw the commercial for this house this morning and asked for it for Christmas. It looks great; thanks!

  553. I would love to bring this to work (rehab setting). I’m sure it the kids that have to work on standing would be so entranced by this toy that they wouldn’t even knowing they were also working hard on their balance skills!

  559. my granddaughter, avery, is so ready for gifts of this age. she would beam from pleasure and lovingly say thank you

  564. Wow-this is the coolest dollhouse ever! My granddaughter would totally flip out over this!

  622. Liz would never get tired of a talking dollhouse. She loves the little small dolls like Polly Pockets and their accessories. She has oodles of the little things. This dollhouse would provide her a new outlet for playing with her small dolls. And since the dollhouse talks as well, she wouldn’t have to do all the talking herself.

  623. My granddaughter not only would love this, but she needs to learn some sharing, caring, and good deeds.

  629. This is such a meaningful, wonderful “toy” for children. I would love to win the dollhouse for my granddaughters for Christmas. It would be the hit of the ocassion, I assure you. But I believe it would provide them with years of meaningful, helpful information.
