It was a week filled with a Strawberry Shortcake ice cream cake, the Jewish holiday of Purim, class photos and lots of presents.
Hannah was truly gifted to receive presents from family and friends, who certainly know about her love for all things artistic and fun.
One gift definitely stood out.
Now, I don't want to sound like an advertorial here but if you're looking for a gift for a creative girl of any age, this one should be a must on your list.
(This gift came wrapped up as a surprise by a friend. I knew nothing about it before and have no ties to the company. The words below are written from a totally non-biased opinion)
The Creativity for Kids Recycled Cardboard Dollhouse is amazing!
We were toying with the idea of getting Hannah a dollhouse for her birthday but I am so happy she got this one instead.
It took me about 30 minutes to build but when she saw it assembled she was so excited. The dollhouse is basically white cardboard with plenty of room for creation. It comes with stickers for the interior and exterior of the house that can all be coloured to the owner's whimsy.
Once the interior design is done, its time to build some 3D paper furniture like a baby's crib, sofa and bunk beds.
The last step involves a 3D family, complete with a dog and cat that can also be coloured in.
Why do I love this product so much? A few reasons.
1. It is made from recycled materials
2. It allows any little girl (or boy) to completely customize their dollhouse
3. It is a never-ending activity that can take weeks to complete and then months to enjoy as they imagine their own little make believe world.
Granted Hannah probably did not appreciate it to its fullest extent as she didn't colour in most of the stickers. But she's still loving the element of creation and play. And I must admit, I had a lot of fun helping her out in the process.
Definitely a must-buy for any girl on your gift list.
