Any fun ideas?

Get a big balloon.
Slide the neck of the balloon over the phone.
Add glitter/confetti if you can bear the ensuing mess Grin
Blow up the balloon and wrap it.

Just make sure it doesn't get popped in a way that the phone will immediately smash on the floor!

Buy a soft toy/cushion from a charity shop.
Make a hole so that you can slip the phone inside.
Sew up the hole.
Make sure the phone is charged and ready.
Call the phone when your DD has opened it.

I love the pillow idea! I remember my first mobile (a long time ago now) my parents hid it in my stocking overnight, then phoned it in the morning, me and DB was so confused to wake up to the ringing tone!
