How many kids and grabby?

Dd will be 3 and has asked for 2 friends over for a birthday party.
First question - she only asked for those 2 - we can make a party with 3 little kids right? I'm feeling internal pressure to add more because 3 can be an awkward number and because I was thinking more 5 or 6 kids.
Second questions - one of the parents asked of she'd like anything in particular. And she would, a paint box, a magic painting book, some fairy wings, a puzzle, anything with anna and elsa on it - all of which are availble for under 10 euro, but perhaps it is rude to assume someone has 10 euro to burn where they might have been thinking more along the lines of street chalk or bubble mix. So do I just say - anything is fine. Or say what she actually asked for. She's not yet 3. She says wow at a cloth bag with her name on.

Just say anything with Anna or Elsa on they then can spend as little or as much as they like. Two friends is fine for a three year old.

That's a nice number for a 3 year olds party

You're not being grabby by suggesting things your dd would like what we did was say

"Oh thank you for asking dd currently likes (insert likes) so if you'd like to get her something around this she'd love that"
