Description

A children?s doll that comes with a positive role-model award.
Lottie is a doll with an age-realistic body shape. The Fossil Hunter edition was developed in collaboration with TrowelBlazers, an organisation dedicated to highlight the achievements of women in archaeology, palaeontology and geology, two members of which are scientists at the Museum.
When asked about their collaboration in creating Fossil Hunter Lottie Dr Brenna Hassett said,?There's a long-standing adage that comes to mind when I'm asked about why TrowelBlazers worked so hard to help design Fossil Hunter Lottie: if you can't see it, you can't be it.?
?You don't need to be a professional palaeontologist to explore the world around you, but starting young is a great way to begin a life-long passion that might one day blossom into a career,.? added Dr Tori Herridge.
Lottie is a bright eyed little girl proudly displaying an Ammonite on her T-shirt. She comes with her fossil finding tools, a map, backpack, hat, Ammonites and a collection of cards about her favourite female scientists including Mary Anning and the Museum?s own Dorothea Bate.
