American Girl for the Holidays

Halloween was barely over for 12 hours and the mall was installing holiday wreaths on the lamp posts. It’s officially the holiday shopping season. I have 3 kids of my own to shop for as well as nieces and friend’s kids who are all different ages and have different interests. There are 2 little girls on that list that love dolls and all things girly. For them it’s a no brainer what is on their list.

At American Girl, we celebrate girls and all that they can be. That’s why we develop products and experiences that help girls grow up in a wholesome way, while encouraging them to enjoy girlhood through fun and enchanting play.

My American Girl Dolls are a fantastic gift for any little girl. This dolls are created to your specifications to have the same look and features as your child of choice. Each 18″ doll comes dressed in a True Spirit Outfit, comes with a charm keeper necklace and codes to keep the fun going online.

This year’s historical doll Caroline Abbott comes dressed and ready to play straight from 1812. Dressed in a gorgeous pink gown with ribbon and ruffle trim she has delicate features that make her a must have for American Girl fans new and old.

Accessories for Caroline and the rest of the dolls range from pets to furniture to additional outfits to vehicles. Each doll takes on the personality that your child wants so the fun is endless.




Holiday Wishlist 2010 – Magic Cabin $50 Giveaway

Little kids toys should be entertaining but also educational but of course not over stimulating. Magic Cabin is a go-to source for just these products. Magic Cabin has been guided by the simple notion that children’s lives are enriched by ample time for open-ended, creative, imaginative play.


We are a fan of these type of toys, toys that don’t require batteries, toys that require kid-power and toys whose play isn’t dictated by a character on tv. Yes we love our electronics and gadgets and video games but we also love our downtime play where imaginations are used and the sky is the limit.

I’ve known about Magic Cabin for many years as the Fairy place. These fairies are cherished by children all over and for good reason they are handcrafted and adorable. The dolls and Kathe Kruse® of Germany are all lovingly made to last a lifetime of hugs and cuddles.

We got the chance to review a couple baby & toddler toys for my nieces. The Stacking Cups are soft enough for the littlest ones but sturdy enough for the little learners and who doesn’t love a gnome.

Wooden pull toys were always Shae’s favorite, that’s why we choose the Holgate Mail Truck Shape Sorter as a gift for one of the 1 year olds. It’s chunky shapes fit well into her hands and the lid pops off for easy access.
