Meet our American Girl dolls! The historic book and doll series that inspired generations of girls to dream bigger turns 40 this year, and we had to pay tribute to these iconic characters:

🎀 Our “Samantha” was born at AHN Jefferson Hospital. In her story, Samantha was not afraid to think for herself at the turn of the century! She loved her teddy bear, gifted to her shortly after their invention in 1904.

👒Our “Kit” was born at AHN Wexford Hospital. In her story, Kit’s creativity and resourcefulness helped her family navigate the Great Depression. Kit and her rescued basset hound, Grace, leaned on each other for comfort.

Just like Samantha and Kit, every baby born at AHN has a unique story. We're here to help them get the best possible start. 💚 Do you have a favorite American Girl doll? Let us know in the comments!
