|
|
| Last minute birthday invitation.....We are going to a birthday party for a little girl that turned 5 yesterday. I don't know her very well. She is hearing impared and has some vision issues... and just A DOLL!!! But I don't know what to get her for a gift. I feel a gift certificate is not personal enough. I don't want to buy her something that she can't hear or see very well... and I'm at a loss. Any ideas would be great!!!! Thanks for your time!Went with the Leapfrog system you connect to your television... that way she can turn it up as loud as she needs to and learn at the same time! Thank you to everyone for their input... if you could have seen me at Toys R Us with ALL of the things that were recommended... my son was rolling! |

| Does she like dolls? I got a three year old girl a giant Raggedy Ann from toys'r'us and she's nearly six and still loves it. Otherwise something fun to touch... play dough is always fun, an easy bake oven, blocks or legos... just go in to a toy store and see what there is!Oh, also princess dress up... costumes, fairy wings... those are always fun. |

| I would try playdoh or moonsand. They also have they playdoh tables for around 25.00 or what about blocks in different shapes so that she can feel them and help to learn her shapes. |

| I have a freind that has a child with the same issues, the Doctors said to buy things in black in white and books that have things that she can feel - you can find alot of books like that at toys r us or baby's r us... |

| So what does her hearing and her vision have to do with what she likes? ASK her parents what she likes. It's not rocket science. |
