TOP TEN GIFTS FOR LITTLE GIRLS

Here's my countdown for a well-rounded Christmas list.

10. Movies. So many good kids movies this year to choose from...

9. Video Games. The obvious is Tinkerbell and the new Disney that's coming at Christmas, The Princess and the Frog. Whatever your system, these will be the princess games of the season.

8. Video Games for her handheld... or get her one. If she's too young for a DS look at the Didj or Leapster 2. They're educational!

7. Smelly bath stuff and make up. Even if she's very young, every girl loves scented bubble bath and lip gloss. Make her feel pretty.

6. Legos. Did you notice that they have tubs of 400+ pieces for around $30? The pink ones include cute pieces for creating a neighborhood.

5. Scooter. Well, my daughter got one for her birthday, but if she hadn't, there would be one under the tree. Don't forget the helmet and pads!

4. Cute jammies and slippers or a big fuzzy robe.

3. Chixos, bendaroos or paperoni... get her something she can make. If you don't know what they are, you been staying home too much.

2. A stuffed animal. The Wowee Alive pets are by far the most adorable to be found. The white tiger and the leopard are soooo cute. Every girl needs a robotic tiger cub to nurture. :o) Baby dolls are out--Animal babies are in!

1. This year science is hot. The number one thing to not forget is... something SCIEN-TERRIFIC. Get her a microscope, a "make your own volcano" kit, a telescope, night vision goggles, whatever, but get her something t/Users/michaelphillips/Desktop/30535-49.jpghat challenges her to explore the world. For scientific gifts shop online or check out ToysRUs. They have alot to choose from.
