1. Dress-Up Clothes
It seems like all the girls my daughter knows love dress-up in some shape or form! Whether it’s princesses, fairies, superheroes or something else, you can find some fun dress-up clothes to fit her play style.
Comes with 3 different color skirts with sparkling stars matching with 3 color toddler-sized heel play shoes, 3 princess tiaras, 3 necklaces and 3 rings, an elegant carrying case for all the princess toys well organized.
2. Barbies
You can’t go wrong with Barbies, and after the Barbie movie, there are more fans than ever! Buy one that comes alone or get a whole play set for more enjoyment.
- Travel-inspired accessories include a map, water bottle, smart phone, face mask, doggy bowl and treat, plus a sticker sheet to customize Barbie doll's ride.
3. Bike
5 is just about the age when kids start to learn how to ride a bike without training wheels! Pick one that she can ride right away, but that she can also grow into.
- As your child grows, you can easily and quickly adjust the seat & handlebar heights. The 14x has a seat height range from 15-22” to fit a huge range of inseam lengths (16-23”).
- Converting the 14x from a balance bike to pedal bike is quick & easy—we even provide the wrench to screw in the only bolt! Once your little one is ready to pedal, just attach the Easy-Ride Pedal Conversion Kit (sold separately).
4. Night Light
I love giving gifts that make a kid’s room feel more cozy and personal to them. This adorable night light lets them control the light on their own, and even better, they can put it wherever they want it in their room because it is battery operated rather than plugging into the wall.
5. Bed Canopy
