Would she like our generation dolls? They do some nice plaudits that would make a good wow present.

DD is 10 and still plays with hers, they don’t put grow them as quick as baby dolls

Following! I’ve also started a thread in the Christmas board about presents for 4 and 6 year olds. So you might find some good ideas there OP.

Sylvania house ?

Ihatemyneighbours1234 · 11/11/2018 19:07

She has so many dolls/baby dolls I can’t bring myself to buy another one, unless there’s a special one about.

She’s one of these that loves barbie, unicorns, mermaids, LOL. All that type of stuff.

Schleich horses? There are tons of horses available as well as alicorns and Pegasus. I’m sure I’ve seen some with fairies as riders too. As well as the horses you can get loads of “pony club” stuff - stables, riding school, showjumping set etc.

My DDs are 8 and had sylvanian families and never played with them. They play with their schleich stuff all the time.

The stuff is expensive, but we made it work by getting other family members to buy various bits and pieces too

I've just received a Playmobil catalogue and some of the things in there are pretty fab. Dolls houses, nursery, aquarium, shops, fairies. Luckily DS is not yet 2 or I may have gone a bit mad at Christmas.

LOL surprise house?

My dd is 6, she loves things from smiggle and Claire’s, poopsie unicorn slime, slime kits, craft things, clothes, our generation, my music player, guitar (she has lessons at school)

Playmobil pony farm - Dd played with hers up until very recently and she’s 11.5

Owletterocks · 11/11/2018 19:54

Lego friends? My dd is getting the our generation camper van

VanellopeVonSchweetz99 · 11/11/2018 20:00

Scooter or bike, computer tablet?

Ihatemyneighbours1234 · 12/11/2018 16:35

Ill have a look into Playmobil that’s a good idea. She unfortunately has a camper van, scooter, bike and tablet already. Thank you for all the suggestions so far! Any others would be welcome!

Real live pets

Construction set aimed at girls might appeal more than a generic set e.g.
Magformers Princess set (these are really good)
K'nex mighty makers

Makeup head

Rainbocorn

Crystal growing kit

Code & Go Robot Mouse Activity Set

WeeM · 12/11/2018 22:02

How about a train set or something for her room-desk/dressing table/bean bags/fairy lights etc.

My DD is 6 too (nearly 7), and I'm not going for a main present as such (partly because I have spent SO MUCH over the years, and yet the thing she plays with every day now is a zoo made of cardboard boxes, filled with a random selection of cheap plastic animals we have randomly acquired over the years). Also, we'll be travelling abroad for Christmas, and I don't want to pack too much. However, stuff I have got her includes:
Barbie stuff (including Barbie pet stuff).
Moana dress up outfit and toys (she still loves that movie, as do I).
Couple of DVDs and books she'll like.
Cuddly toy.
Hamster Race (she specifically requested this).
And of course, a load of really cheap plastic zoo animals......

tinyvulture · 13/11/2018 01:45

My mom is getting her some Spirit stuff (that Disney horse), and Barbie stuff, including a "Barbie Boyfriend" (Ken). This, I would say, is what she is most excited about..... Mom has struggled to find one without a man-bun tho. (Not that DD cared - but mom seemed to....)

Ihatemyneighbours1234 · 13/11/2018 22:42

All good ideas I’ll be looking into some of these! DD also loves spirit!

Anyone else?!
