Help gift ideas for young girls

I have two nieces aged six and nearly three. I have boys and don't have a clue what presents to buy girls.
I thought about putting a box of little presents together for each or them.
Now I'm stuck.
Any ideas would be most welcome.

I have two girls granted they are now a lot older than your nieces, my nieces are about the same age though, I usually buy craft type gifts, like bead necklaces/braclets etc. Paint by colours, plastic food cooking stuff for the youngest, dressing up clothes & make up. Ask their mum if they have a favorite doll see if you can buy it some clothes or extra's they all seem to come with these days, hope these help a little happy shopping.
I've just got my youngest niece a Disney princess book with her name typed into the story's very sweet. Got it from https://www.identitydirect.co.uk you can add their family & friends names to the story too.0 -
I could tell you a few of the things I've bought for my 4yo dd if that would help........
Angelina Ballerina puzzle
Sportz Bratz doll (hate them myself)
Bratz Annual
Disney Princess purse and bubblebath
Buckeroo Game
Wooden Spoon puppet kit from ELC
Skipping rope.
Hope something on that list helps.:xmassmile"all endings are also beginnings. We just don't know it at the time..."0 -

Have a look in your local Poundland. They have some really good stocking fillers and craft type stuff in at the moment.
Also lots of kids videos at £1.00 too. Fifi, Titch, Balamory, Boo, Brum etc etc there are adult ones too.0 -
Two words.......
Pink and sparkly
Sorry, that might not be a great help to you....
puzzles, hair things, craft things (as othes have already said!), bags - anything to *put things in*, Tesco's and Asda do their own version of Barbie dolls and ELC have lots of bits under a fiver....

I need some cupcake recipies now and pink mixing bowl to, i thought i could laminate the recipies and print in pink, so cheap and cheerful x:A :j0 -
I have made my goddaughter a cookery kit. I bought her a book for her birthday and I have bought her a set from Mothercare with apron, rolling pin etc, muffin cases, measuring cups, measuring spoons (easier for a 6 year old than scales) and some cake toppers. Gives her something to do with mummy too.
I've bought craft sets before as well.0
