Thank you. This is really helping! She's telling me she will ask FC for a 'surprise'.

chillimice her birthday was in November which doesn't help!

So far I have chosen:

Worst Witch box set.
Playmobil ambulance.
Rachel Ellen stationery.
A fluffy onesie Hmm
Scooter gloves.
Crayola tracing pad.

My 4 year old DS is so easy to buy for and loves every toy he has ever been given. DD is a much trickier character!

Relatives have taken the best ideas... a little sewing machine, Spirograph, Cluedo.

Never heard of Our Generation dolls but they look like something she might like. She likes dressing her BAB.

@ginglebelle you might have Sylvanian Families sorted already but I always think the cosy cottage is good value relative to the other stuff. Also that price in Argos.
