Christmas Ideas for the girls 2007

Firstly, this is obviously a post to family members rather than friends, unless you do want to buy Daisy and Iris a christmas present and then you are most welcome to.

This is a post about christmas present ideas for the girls.
I will list things that i think might be of interest to the girls and if you are interested in buying it or something like it then please let me know first (ie: before you buy it) so that any other grandparent or auntie doesn't get it as well.


PRESENTS FOR DAISY
* BABYborn / Dolly outfits.
Daisy has two main dollies, one is a BABYborn (named Flossie) the other is of similar size but with a soft body (named Maggie), so any clothes that you buy (or make) should be for a 43cm (17") doll.
* Sewing kits.
I think Daisy would like this Lacing Animals In A Tin or even this Sew & Lace Card which is cheaper, for a younger child but looks more interesting. She is quite interested in sewing, although i guess the interest might not last for too long because they both look quite basic but she would like it for a goodly while, at least until boxing day.
Presents already purchased
* Micro Scooter. - purchased
OK, this is perhaps a bit expensive at just under £40 but if anyone wants to donate to a scooter then you are most welcome.
Daisy has been having a go on her friends scooter just like this one and she seems to be getting the hang of it and did say she wouldn't mind one.
* Baby Doll Sling. - purchased
I think Daisy would like this dolly sling, in fact i think she would really like this dolly sling.


PRESENTS FOR DAISY AND IRIS
* Charlie and Lola DVD's.
The Charlie & Lola series ranges from series 1 - 8.
We already have no 5 so please don't get that one.
If you want to buy one of these then you can get these from real live shops that you can walk in and everything like Woolworths, WHSmith etc... but if your legs are not working you can also get them from the bbc online shop : No 1, No 2, No 3, No 4, No 6, No 7, No 8.
* Mary Poppins DVD
* Charlie and the chocolate factory (the original with Gene Wilder in it)
* Peter Pan (the original)
* Jungle Book


PRESENTS FOR IRIS
She is in fact quite hard to buy for because in some ways she has it all already (she plays with almost all Daisy's toys)
*In the night garden
She does quite like in the night garden so she might like this set of main characters or an iggle piggle or an upsy daisy
Just noticed you can get some of these from Woolworths too, this little threesome set looks goodPurchasedMacca Pacca bath toy has already been - purchased
I would say smaller is better than bigger in my opinion, otherwise it takes up too much room, plus she only has little hands
* Happy Land from the early learning centre
Happy Land is a brand from the Early Learning Centre of cute figure sets.
Iris really likes playing with Daisy's old figures so she would probably love to get more. (having said that, Daisy laid it all out and played with it for about an hour on Monday!)
We already have these : Goosefeather Farm, The Village Vet and The Post Office so please don't get these.
Presents already purchased
This Happyland Playmat i think would be greatly appreciated by both girls. £15. - purchased
