Abstract

A foam dispensing doll includes a head and body coupled together at a neck joint and defining an interior cavity therein. A generally cylindrical canister sleeve is supported within the doll body and head cavity and extends through a passage formed in the neck joint. The canister sleeve defines a closed end within the doll body and an open end extending upwardly through an aperture formed in the doll head. A generally cylindrical soap canister having a quantity of pressurized soap foam stored therein includes an upwardly extending pivotable valve. The cylindrical soap canister is received within the canister sleeve such that the valve extends upwardly beyond the doll's head. A generally cone-shaped cap is received upon and secured to the soap canister and defines an aperture for discharge of the pressurized soap from the canister interior as well as an access aperture through which the user is able to insert a finger tip and manipulate the valve between open and closed positions to control soap foam dispensing.
