BabyLand General
Did you know that there is a Cabbage Patch Doll hospital in Georgia? I had no idea until Donna, a blogging friend of mine, told me about it. It is in Cleveland, Georgia. This looks like such a fun place to visit that I might have to take a detour on our next trip to Florida. There are directions to their location on the website. I hear that Colonel Casey, the resident stork, is hard to miss as he points the way to the hospital. BabyLand General has a quarter of a million visitors each year!
Babyland General offers tours where you can actually see your “baby” as it is born. BabyLand General Hospital tours are available Monday through Saturday 9 to 5, Sunday 10 to 5 eastern standard time, except certain holidays.
You will see older dolls on display that are from the 70’s and 80’s. When the Cabbage Patch dolls were first made, they were known as “little people” and could be adopted for a fee of around $30. These older dolls have been known to be adopted again at prices of over $25,000. There are over 115 million Cabbage Patch Kids worldwide.
Here is a picture of my 23 year old son when he was a few months old. He is beside his Cabbage Patch baby. My son is the one in blue.
Here is my baby now.
My Cabbage Patch doll, Lisa, is 23 this year.

I’ve been to Babyland General. It really is pretty cool. The babies are delivered in a cabbage patch and everything. When our kids are older, we plan to make the journey to Cleveland, GA so they can also experience it.
