Need gift ideas for a 2 year old girl!

My niece is turning 2 this week and I'm at a loss of what to get her. I'd love to get her something personalized from etsy or something. Mom's of girls, do you have any favorite etsy shops where I could get something cute for a 2 y/o girl?

I'm also open to getting her something else (like toys or books). Anything that your little girl is really into?

TIA!

dolls, stroller, Melissa and Doug has a cute ballerina puzzle that my DD likes and my 5 year old niece really likes too.

Do you think she would like a personalized minky toddler blanket? My DD loves her blankets, dolls, books, and bouncy balls. Her favorite book right now is "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" by Mo Willems.

The little girl I watch is turning 2 and I'm getting her some dress up stuff.  Like butterfly wings to wear, a cute little purse, and dress up shoes (not high heal).  If she doesn't already have play food that is great  too...the Melissa and Doug is a favorite.

Dress up clothes, play jewelery (just make sure there are no small pieces), dolls, doll stroller, books, puzzles, age appropriate coloring supplies.

Cute summer clothes don't hurt if you can't find anything else. Go for size 3T if unsure, safer to err on the larger side.

My DD just turned 2 and she also loves trains and basically anything on wheels that she can either push around the house or ride on. The doll stroller falls in this category as well.

Try to stay away from overly noisy toys, the parents will appreciate it. Something that encourages imaginative play, using their gross or fine motor skills, or promotes language development is usually a good bet, rather than electronic toys that do most of the playing for them.

Oh, and if you can, make sure to include a gift receipt.
