About |
Universal Messengers (TM) is a Revolutionary Children's "Edutainment" Company specializing in building character and life skills through books, dolls, toys, and a variety of products and services that create exciting, adventurous and educational experiences for children of all ages.
Universal Messengers(TM) roots can be traced back to 1992, when Darla J. Foxx received the vision to create a doll that would be a special friend to her daughter and all children, enabling Ms. Foxx to share what she has learned about the importance of knowing, loving, and trusting yourself, loving others and making positive choices. Her hope is to entertain, empower, and teach safety through awareness which may help protect and possibly save a child from experiencing the devastations that too many children often encounter throughout childhood.
The Alexis McDougal(TM) Character Building and Life Skills series features an 8 year old precocious little girl named Alexis, her special angel friend, Gabrielle, her BFF- Chelsea, and a host of multicultural classroom friends. Everyday life situations that require problem solving, seeking advice, friendship issues, and danger/despair are used to teach lessons encouraging children to examine these situations with the help of Alexis' "special friend". The messages taught are life lessons designed to help children recognize and acknowledge their own inner strength and spirit.
Universal Messengers(TM) currently has published several storybooks in the Alexis McDougal(TM) Series, created The Alexis McDougal Mascot for birthday parties and special events, produced an Alexis McDougal Stage Skit from the popular series, owns the rights to The Alexis McDougal(TM) Plush Doll (which will be available soon), along with her "Special Friend", Gabrielle , and related Alexis McDougal retail merchandise.
The Alexis McDougal(TM) Character Building and Life Skills Multicultural Book Series and products are available through our official web sites: www.universalmessengers.com or www.alexismcdougal.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders, Amazon.com and your local book stores.
Future company goals include manufacturing and marketing each of the multicultural storybook character dolls, clothing line, computer and board games, DVD movies, CD-soundtracks, theatre movies, and a T.V. series.
