These colorful Muñecas Quitapena, or Worry Dolls, are rooted in the ancient Mayan traditions of Guatemala and southern Mexico. According to legend, children (and even grown-ups) can share their worries with each doll before bed. Tucked beneath a pillow, the dolls work their quiet magic overnight—carrying troubles away and leaving wisdom in their place.
Whisper your worries away—six tiny guardians of peace and tradition.

Customer Reviews
Purchased for my granddaughter to teach her our traditions so they are never lost. Was a little disappointed as the dolls where so small. Otherwise beautifully made.
These dolls are adorable. Each one is unique and beautifully made.
I love these dolls and have used them for 3 main worries as I sleep. I would love to eventually get one for each of my students!
I love them. I purchased them for my best friend who has a lot on her shoulders in hopes they can offer her some kind of relief.
