“Our students are in a grade 11 class called Raising Healthy Children,” the teacher of the class, Andrea Lefebvre told. “The students bring home one of the Real Care babies for the weekend to apply their learning for the caring for a newborn unit.

Lefebvre said that the babies cry, need to be held, rocked, burped, diapers need to be changed and they need to be fed. The dolls also record rough handling, abuse and temperatures. So I guess the only thing they’re missing is a never-wiping snot and they’d be the real deal.
