There are also great styles for men as well, just in case you need one more thing for them this holiday.

3. Let her create a miniature paradise. Earth and Tree Dollhouse and Miniature Shop has the largest selection around with 3,000 square feet filled with miniature dollhouses, hobby-building materials and miniature furnishings.

4. Build a new friend! There are Build-A-Bear workshops in New Hampshire where she can construct her very own stuffed friend to her liking. Children get to build, design and dress their own toys, even giving them their own special hearts. Take her over to one or give her Bear Buck$ towards bringing her gift to life. Can she make a penguin wearing a Santa Claus costume you ask? Yes she can.
