Playing at princess when she's a toddler, preschooler, and maybe longer might be the last time your daughter gets to believe in this innocent grow-up-to-live-happily-ever-after-and-rule-the-world fantasy.
Soon enough she will be protesting against social injustice, angry about climate change, stressing over a less-than-perfect test score, and learning that relationships are not always "happily ever after."
Let her have this. She will look back on it fondly.
Here are five toys that let you treat your girl, while she still believes in princesses, like royalty.
A DIY princess wand
$6.99
from
If you are a perfectionist princess and you want a wand done right, you should make it yourself. And here is the DIY kit for that project.
It's complete with a wooden star, dowel, two satin ribbons, 19 gem stickers, four pots of paint, a paintbrush, two glitter glues, and white glue. Your little princess will have to bring her own magic.
A Play-Doh kit for creating 'Frozen II' characters
This adorable Play-Doh set has all the right colors from Frozen II as well as stamps, rollers, and tools to help re-create Anna and Elsa from clay.
It's important for a princess to have role models, even if she has to mold them herself.
A dress-up doll because, when princessing, the dress is key.
In the world of princesses, the dress is very important. Gift your little princess this wooden dress-up doll so she can practice piecing together the dress, accessories, and — very important — the tiaras. Accessorizing is an art, after all.
This wooden princess doll comes with a variety of magnetic clothing pieces and gear, a doll stand, and an easy-to-carry storage tray.
Princesses for the 'My Little Pony' obsessed
If your princess is obsessed with My Little Pony, then she will love this collection of characters. There are 10: Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Spike the Dragon, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and Princess Cadance.
Plenty of ponies, and plenty of those are princesses. She will be very, very happy.
The Disney Princess castle as a dollhouse
This is the house where all the Disney Princesses chill. There's a big couch for collapsing on after the drama, a movie room with popcorn for staying abreast with cultural references, and a delightful vanity for playing with cosmetics.
The place is loaded with snacks, too. Because you can't always wear a tiara and do the princess wave. Sometimes you just want to hang out with your friends. (Princesses, friends not included.)
