How to Make Your Own Cartoon Dolls

For several generations now, kids have been watching cartoons on television.  Ask any child if he or she has a favorite cartoon, and you’ll get a quick answer every time.  What is different about this latest generation compared to all that preceded it is their access to the Internet.  Now, if you’re a kid, you can make your own cartoon dolls using doll maker software programs found at many web sites.  Even better, these sites that allow you to make your own cartoon dolls are incredibly easy to use (and fast, too)!

Find sites to make cartoon dolls by searching at Google or Yahoo.  Once you’re at a site to make your own cartoon dolls, the process is just about as easy as it could possibly be.  If you can use a computer mouse, you can make a cartoon doll in about 5 minutes.  Start by picking a ‘base,’ which is just a blank body on which you’ll add clothes, shoes, hats, and other accessories.

The next step as you make your own cartoon dolls is to put the clothes and other accessories on the doll’s body.  Now, there are two kinds of doll maker sites.  One type is called drag-and-drop, where you click on an item, hold down the mouse button, and drag it over to the doll’s body.  Then, you release the button to drop it there.  The other type is called point-and-click or double-click, and it’s easier.  Instead of dragging stuff around, you simply put your cursor on whatever you want to add to the doll, and then double-click the left mouse button.  The item will then appear on the doll’s body in the correct spot.  Cool, huh?

The final step as you make your own cartoon dolls is saving the doll to your own computer.  Simply right-click on the doll, then choose ‘save as’ and pick a location on your computer.  That’s it!
