This invention relates generally to an im- .provement in dolls.

With this construction the act of kissing can be closelyslmulated by compressing the chamber, then in pressing the lips of the doll to a soft surface, such as the cheek of a child, then in portion 5 is provided with an air chamber 6 Cal ' and provided with-a duct 7 leading up-c releasing pressure on the container, and then in removing the lips of the doll from the yielding surface, whereupon air will rush into the opening between the lips of the doll and produce a sibilant sound simulating the.

sound of a kiss. a

Other features of the invention Wlll be hereinafter referred to.

Referring to the drawings for a more detaileddescription of the invention, a doll is shown in which a relatively flexible body formed of'resilient material, such as rubber,
