Children’s book series with doll tie-ins, 1990s, not American Girl…?

Hi! I read this children’s book series around 1995 and can’t for the life of me remember what it was (or really, what it was about…). It had dolls that you could buy, like American Girl, but the dolls weren’t as good or as popular. But the books were decent. There were maybe 3-4 girls and a few books about each, I think. I don’t even remember what they were about — maybe they traveled back in time? Maybe one girl was into horses? Or maybe none of that? I know this is super vague, but I’m really hoping it will jog someone’s memory!

Thank you!

>1 Mandykittycat: Could it be the Magic Attic Club books? In The Secret of the Attic they traveled back in time.

>1 Mandykittycat: I don't know about dolls, but maybe the Dear America series? They were from around that time period and were very similar to the American Girl books.

Edit: Dear America had dolls. I had just forgotten about them.

>1 Mandykittycat: I thought of the Our Generation dolls, but those are probably too new. https://www.librarything.com/work/19256614
