Anything messy is still fun. Hayley loved squishy playdough stuff at that age - the stuff that requires you to do something with it (like squash through the hole, make a fake playdough tooth, etc). Oooh, she loved those electric bubblemaking machines too - the ones that crank out bubbles. Oh also - those circle sleds rock too, big wheels, scooters. She was just into ones she could control herself but not quite off the training wheels on the bike. Dress up rocks. Anything messy is still fun.

What if you bought her a musical instrument and lessons? If she loves to dance, perhaps she'll love the music to go along with it! Also, I think the fire engine idea is a great idea as well...you could always be the Mom who brings out her inner boy ;) I thought of the collector things and the handmade things too…those are great ideas.

A tote that you could put some new barbies and accessories in? If you were going for the yearly something special gift I've heard of the pearl gift...each year you give a pearl and it goes on a spcial chain or whatever they put pearls on and eventually she will have a full string.

That'd probably be extra-special to her... I know Kelsey really treasures the things people have made for her, and I'm sure something from you would be even more special to the Munchkin. And you also wouldn't have to worry about weather she already has 12 of them, etc. Something simple but special, like maybe a fleece tie blanket in her favorite colors that she could sleep with and think of you every night. Or a photo of the two of you made into a puzzle, so she could play with it and think of you. Or a totebag you decorated with fabric paint she could use for dance class. Just some ideas...

My dd is also into any sort of miniature playset w/ the smaller pieces the better (to step on!) Stickers. tiny stamps/stamp pads. little notebooks. special pencils. lmk if you want me to raid the sanrio/hello kitty store! A small 'purse', bag or pencil case to hold said treasures. *hugs* Horses? My dd is also into any sort of miniature playset w/ the smaller pieces the better (to step on!)

American girl was a good idea..... Or how about a Build-A-Bear? You put a heart inside and make a wish..... and then there are all the accessories to go along with it.
