My daughter is 6. She loves her Nintendo DS I.... They are pricey but if the child already has one than you could maybe get games to go with it... My daughter also loves books, DVD's and stuffed animals.. She asked for an American Girl doll that looks like her from Santa this year. She loves dresses and make believe. She loves anything crafty... She will have a bracelet making kit under the tree this year. She loves her Webkinz and Shining stars, since she can go on line and play games with them. Oh and she loves lip gloss and nail polish! Her main gift this year is a horse... only because we live on a farm and I have one of my own that I would love to be able to ride agian.
