Most girls are into things like fashion, painting, crafts, cooking, modeling and many more. Try some of these girls toys for your daughter and she will be rewarded with hours of indoor fun and challenging activities. Here are some recommended girls toys.

Dolls

Of course it goes without saying that girls love dolls. So girls toys that include dolls have to be discussed. Instead of buying a mass-produced doll, why not try and make one yourself. Or, have the Grandma do it if she is the more accomplished seamstress. When making a doll, involve your daughter in the process. Take her with you to the pattern store to select the doll pattern she likes best. Or, better yet, get her to draw a doll and then have the adult develop a pattern from that. Allow her to choose the hair color and the clothing fabric as well. It will mean more to the child to have a doll she helped to make than a doll that was purchased from the store. It will be something she will treasure for years to come.

Books

Photo Story Junior is really practical as a boys or girls toys selection. It is a kit, through which your child can create his or her very own book. Your child is the author, illustrator, and photographer of their very own book that the manufacturer will publish and bind. The kit includes everything from the tape to adhere photos to marking pens, and the envelope and pre-paid postage to send the manuscript in for production. If your child prefers, Photo Story junior can also be used on the Internet.

Crafts

Strictly a girls toys selection, Girls Crush Hair Beader kit will keep your daughter busy beading her hair with the special beading machine. It only takes a few strands of hair placed gently in the beading machine, and a pull on the trigger to have instantly beaded hair. This is a favorite girls toys selection.

The Aqua doodle is one of the best girls toys for moms. The Aqua doodle is a mat that children can use for doodling. They doodle and draw with a special water-filled magic pen. The drawing magically appears on the mat, then dries up and disappears. This is drawing with no paper, no mess, and no clean up. No wonder it is a parents’ favorite among girls toys. I can personally attest to this toy as my two year old daughter uses it. The mess-free aspect of this toy makes it perfect for in the car.

Barrel of Crafts is another favorite among girls toys if strictly for the variety it provides. It literally is a barrel of crafts items, featuring pom poms, feathers, chenille stems, clay, craft sticks, wiggle eyes, foam shapes and sheets, dough cutters, buttons, spangles, rainbow cord, sequins, pony beads, and glitter glue pens. Your little girl will have hour and hours of fun making her own imaginative creations from all these crafts materials.

Play Toys

The Paint and Pretend Mini Tea Set is one of the best keepsake toys for girls. It’s a mini tea set with unfinished teacups, teapot, saucers and cream and sugar dispensers. Your little girl gets to design and decorate the entire set with the paints and palette provided. Once the paint has been applied, the tea set can be baked in the over to make the paint set. Your daughter is left with a play tea set personally designed and painted by her own hand. The set is very durable and should provide years of tea party use long after the paint has been applied.

The Easy Bake Real Meal Oven is the latest rendition of one of the classic girls toys of all time. Your daughter can bake pretzels, chocolate chip cookies, macaroni and cheese and more. These are meals that she can enjoy and even the family can help to eat. The oven is safe for use by small children and the food is real, and it tastes pretty good, too.

While we realize that we have described these as girls toys, we recognize that some of these toys are just as much fun for boys as well, so be sure to include them in playtime too. Have fun shopping for the little girl in your life!
