泥娃娃 : níwáwa
I found this, and it made me giggle, I think it is actually 'Mud Doll' essentially a Doll made of clay not an ugly doll as the video says. I have taken a picture of what I imagine to be 泥娃娃 níwáwa.
It is a horribly catchy song and after a while gets really quite annoying. But here is a popular Chinese children's song that caught my attention, I have translated it below. I hope you enjoy it. I have been singing along. (I think I successfully have annoyed my girlfriend, but learnt to sing a small amount of Chinese)

Great song...but sorry that video is creepy. I was about to show it to my son... but I don't want him screaming in fear which is what I did. Thanks! Great vocab!
I don't like the song either. So sad..the doll doesn't have a mom, the doll doesn't have a dad.
