Learning dolls that teach zippers, snaps, shoe tieing, buttons, etc.?

Question

I was wanting to find one of those Learning dolls that teaches how to tie shoes, zip and unzip a zip, snaps, buttons, etc. I know I had one when I was a kid but I dont know who makes them. I was going to look on ebay but don't know what to look under.
Any help would be great!

Answer 2

Fisher Price used to have a bear that had all of these things on it. If you have a ToysRUs nearby, then try them. You can also try their web site and search to see if its still available. Or maybe another toy company. Good Luck I took my grandson to The bear factory, we made a bear, that he helped stuff(which is great fun) then he got to pick out different clothes and accessories. Alot of them have buttons, zippers and more. Just an idea.

I think the original ones were called "Dressy Bessy"
