Now that Harper is two and a half, she has more defined interests so shopping for presents is a little easier.
We try not to go too overboard (and I’ll definitely be cleaning out our playroom and donating some toys before Christmas) but I love seeing her expressions and hearing her comments when she opens gifts and I love selecting ones I think she’ll love.
In addition to some new books (I like to check out amazon’s best seller list for ideas) I’m also painting an old wooden crib my in-laws saved from when my sister in law was little for Harper’s baby doll. Below are a few other gifts I ordered for Harper’s third Christmas!
children’s clothing rack
My in-laws started a beautiful princess dress collection for Harper so I wanted her to have a mini clothing rack to organize all of her dresses. This one comes with pretty pink hangers. I may spray paint the white frame a fun color when it comes in.
play doh my little pony
Harper loves ponies and unicorns, so I thought this set would be fun for her to go along with the play doh 24 pack and play doh fun factory we got for her. I always loved play doh as a child and I think she will enjoy creating different shapes and designs.
boon water pipes bath toy
Our high chair is by Boon and I’ve always been impressed by their products. Harper loves to pour water from one container to another during bath time (at the end of her bath she pours the final cup of water down the drain to “give it back to the mermaids” haha). I love the concept of these pipes and I think she will have a blast seeing the water come out of them.
Sofia the first castle boat
Harper is obsessed with Sofia the First and the mermaid episodes are her favorite. She’s like really (really) into mermaids, ha. I thought this would be a fun toy for her because she’s getting more into imaginative play lately— she makes up all kinds of stories and scenarios and talks and acts them out. It’s so sweet and fun to watch her!
disney princess little people castle
I’m obsessed with doll houses (I had a real-wood San Franciscan style doll house with gorgeous bay windows and hardwood floors when I was younger) and it’s my dream to get Harper a beautiful (and huge) real doll house when she’s older. But since she so into imaginative play right now and loves Disney princesses, I thought this castle would be a big hit. I also got her some extra little people little mermaid figurines to go with it.
sloan & co. bracelet
Adorable colorful beads and a unicorn charm? Nuff’ said!
I hope this list helps if you’re stumped on what to get for your toddler girl, niece or a friend’s daughter.
Happy shopping!
I am adding the Sofia Floating Palace to my list! My daughter (3yrs) also loves the mermaid episodes the best. Thanks for the tip!
There is a brand called play mobil that sells little sets of horses and a barn. I got this for my daughter last Christmas and she hasn’t stopped playing with it since! A good idea for a girl who loves horses.
My daughter also loves the little people, this year we got her the Minnie Mouse and Mickey Mouse little people set since we just took a Disney trip! She also loves mermaids, and has the mermaid set and loves it! Harper will love it! She’s also in Sofia but like y’all we kept it simple, we only got her the little people set, and this learning game thing plus everything in the stocking. We are also going to be donating a lot of toys she doesn’t play with before Christmas!!
Thanks for all of the adorable ideas! I’m ordering the Boon water pipes now! A fun idea for you…my daughters are also completely obsessed with mermaids and I found these adorable mermaid blankets (sleeping bag style) for them and think they will fall in love. You should check them out for Harper! The company is called Blankie Tails. (There’s a little shark too…could be a cute gift for Lincoln down the road!) Happy Holidays!
I love the idea of those boon water pipe toys! My daughter also loves bath time and would love playing with these! Great gift guide Veronika 🙂

I love the idea of a mini clothing rack! I bet my 3 year old niece would love this! Please tell us what Harper thinks of it!
I will do! We plan to put it at the tree with some new dresses on it that my in-laws got for her 🙂
Georgia STILL plays with her princess castle daily. Another one Harper might like is the Klip Klop Kastle (little people Disney princesses on horses). I may pick up the My Little Pony play doh set you mentioned.
