I need help with birthday gift ideas for my niece who will be 4 years old. I am a mom of all boys so I need help with this! My niece loves princesses and basically has everything you could imagine already. Any ideas?
My friend's daughter was 4 a few months ago and I got her a charm bracelet at Gymboree that she LOVES. You buy the bracelet, then the individual charms. They clip on (like a necklace clasp) so she can arrange them. It was a big hit.
Those charms are so cute! My 3 year old niece has a necklace with charms and she loves it. Also she loves to wear tu-tu dresses. When I was 5 I had a frilly strawberry shortcake dress I loved it. I wore it to rags and my mom threw it out secretly. Still mad about it! I usually stay away from toy giving since they usually have more than they need.
My daughter will be 4 this week, and she is in LOVE with My Little Pony stuff. She can sit forever and talk to them. She also likes the Barbies, but not as much as the ponies. They have all sorts of MLP stuff at Target.
She also likes dress-up clothes. I've gotten her cute fairy and ballerina outfits at Gymboree, but they have Disney princess dresses at Target and Wal-Mart, too. She likes jewelry, but she's too little to take care of it and always ends up leaving it on the floor or something.
My niece loved arts and "craps" ( as she called it) at 4. She loved the make your own jewelry kits. I always found if they already have everything then get them one small gift like a few books and then cash or a bond. I also bought them stocks in their name when they were very young as well. It sounds silly now but they'll appreciate when they're older and it pays out.
