2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

I need to hear what everyone will be getting their 2-3 yr old girls for xmas.

I need some BIG gift ideas.

We usually do 1-2 BIG gifts then a bunch of smaller ones.

But I would like to hear some ideas.

She is VERY into all the disney princesses and also baby dolls...just started with the baby dolls the past week.

I was thinking that disney princess castle by Mattel.

What else?

Re: 2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

These are some of the things I've come up with so far:

-a dollhouse
-baby dolls
-an easel
-a new bedding set (we'll be moving her out of the crib soon - I was thinking either something with Dora or Disney princesses since she loves both)

Re: 2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

For a big family present we're doing a trampoline for the backyard.

As for my 2.5 yr old. We're planning on getting her a big doll house and lots of accessories to play in it with.

Re: 2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

My DD is 3.5. Last year I got her a dress up carousel with dress up clothes. Huge it and is still played with everyday. She also got a lot of crafts, coloring books, stickers etc.

This year she is getting the leappad and a toybox of Disney princess items (sweat shirt, pj's slippers, ornaments, Rapunzel tower) along with a trip to Disney in January which will include getting made up like a princess at bippidy boobity boutique.

Big gifts will be:


A dollhouse from Cracker Barrel (why? I have no idea, i just got her a FB one for her bday in August but my aunt wants a 'better' one for her) Thing is like $70

She's going to get her Thomas Train sit on Perego thingy again

That's it for 'big'

I am leaning twds the doll house as her main gift.
And a lot of dress up, she loves to dress up now!

She got the Crayola easel last xmas but I am thinking of getting her a desk this year too.

Re: 2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

I saw some really cute baby doll furniture sets on aBaby.com. My DD loves to play with dolls and there’s a doll crib and changing station with two baskets and a ladder that I think she will love! Our next child is on the way and I think this set will help her adjust to having a baby sister!

Re: 2-3 year old girls- XMAS presents from santa

Last year we got DD (she was 2) a train table and a vanity as her big gifts. She loved them but I can tell you, the vanity is easily one of her FAVORITE things!! She still plays with that thing constantly! She's such a girlie girl and loves to do her hair, jewelry, and "make-up". She also got the Mrs. Goodbee dollhouse.

This year I haven't decided on a "big" gift yet. So far though we've gotten her an Ariel doll from Disney (it's adorable - it's from the "Animators" collection). We also got an Ariel beauty set, puzzles, arts and crafts (she LOVES projects), My Little Pony, a Barbie, etc. Still looking around for some more stuff and still trying to figure out the big gift. I am thinking of the Calico Critters Townhome and all the little animals as her big gift this year but we'll see.

Edit - For her bday last year (her bday is in Sept) she also got a kitchen set and an easel. She LOVES those too! The kitchen set is also one of her FAVORITE things!
