Ideas for mini things to make

My daughter is 8 and she loves making mini things - like these surprise ball things where you get all the things to make a tiny cup of coffee or whatever: https://amzn.eu/d/d7pzKhx

She’d like to get something similar for Christmas, but I’m trying to avoid the ton of plastic that comes with them, so ideally it would be nice to have a set with lots of different things she could make. We’ve searched online but not found anything. Has anyone seen anything similar that might fit the bill?

What about getting a dolls house dinner service on eBay and making various dishes out of that bakeable modelling clay stuff? Could even get a non babyish dolls house and furnish it over time.
