The Picky Princess
In my experience, girls are picky! Not all of them, but most...let's be honest. And you can't just buy them anything pink, it's not the 50's. They are uber-discerning little creatures who have their own mind, taste and style (who would have thought?). My nieces are a prime example. One is a thinker who loves games and puzzles, one is a creative who loves crafts of any sort, and the other is maternal who loves baby dolls so much that she may as well have her own TLC show.
I did some shopping around on Amazon and compiled a variety of Christmas gift ideas. You are bound to find something for even the most particular little princess in your life!
