These make a great gift, thanks for sharing. Hard to shop for this category.
Some great ideas here. We are only blessed with sons and we find it difficult to get inside the minds of nieces and friend’s daughters to choose an appropriate present. I strongly suspect some of the lines in toy stores are aimed at what adults believe young girls want rather than what the actually want.
These really are great gifts. My nieces will love these for Christmas.
These would make an awesome gift! Makes me wish I had a little girl to buy for.
Oh wow, these are all so adorable! It brings me back to being a kid and wanting a doll house so much! I’m sure a girl would be thrilled to have any of these!
We have a few Calico Critters that were given to us and my kids LOVE them! They are so adorable and I love that they are a little fuzzy. This house is so cool and my daughters would love one of these for Christmas! Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂
