birthday present ideas for a 2 year old girl

Recommended Posts

My daughters 2nd birthday is coming up on the 2nd march and seeing as she got quite a lot of presents for Christmas I am struggling to think of anything to get her for her birthday. She has the usual happyland toys which she plays with occasionally but if anyone has any ideas of good presents for a 2 year old girl, suggestions would be appreciated

We did get Bugglet a cardboard playhouse for her 2nd birthday - was fab as it didn't cost anywhere near as much as many of the playhouses, and could be "decorated" by bugglet as she chose. We did up grade to this one:

For her birthday this year - both pack up easily if not wanting to have them out all the time.

As above really, kitchen stuff (pots, pans etc), baking equipment (play or real so you can do it together), ironing board (no stereotypes here but she loved it!) kettle, tea set, blackboard and chalks, sticker books, playmobil figures and accessories, pop up books, play food, large piece jigsaws, puppets/puppet theatre, dressing up clothes?


I have the same issue for my now 3 yr old, she had a load of stuff for Xmas and we were a bit stumped especially as she is still playing with the same kinda of toys she did over the last year but she gets bored of them easily, erm...a new iron!? We've gone for a vtech digital camera and a CD player, very grown up.

My daughter is a couple of weeks younger than yours and loves tea set, play food, scooter, art stuff, puzzles and duplo we are having the same issues, my mum pays for her mr tumble magazine each month as a present and we ask for money for swimming lessons (water babies) she had a little wooden cake stand with wooden cakes for Xmas, that was a big hit!

maybe just get her clothes etc then or a selection of small treats like stickers, extra bits to go with toys she already has, etc? if you really want her to have a big present you could always put the money aside and get her something midway through the year when you see something you know she would really like.


we realised after xmas that actually what we need is a play kitchen!!!! and have just bitten the bullet and ordered one as i am about to have no. 2 and am hopeful that it will occupy him when i am busy with the baby and all the kitchen-y stuff that comes along with a newborn and then weaning infant.


something we have recently got as a family present is an adult scooter and i have to say that has made a big impact on our outings - my son loves to scoot after his dad on the big scooter so it has made him use his scooter a lot more (and a lot more skilfully). hopefully i will be able to join in once i have my balance back!

    • The alternative would be to let them free, to be predated on and without parents to teach them the necessities of survival. Clearly this is an unhelpful model of instruction, but, given the ducklings have been born and will not survive without parental care (unless they are hand reared in the school - which I doubt has the capacity of skill for this) then gassing them is the most 'humane' action. The school should perhaps have thought through what is the likely outcome for ducklings which are not being reared by either skilled farmers or ducks. I suspect that the duckings would not be saleable to farmers having been initially born and raised in circumstances which were not sterile for introduction into larger flocks. 
    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.
