Yes, Melissa and Doug is great. They have grat puzzles and I also like their play food sets and fill and spills. My neices and Nephews will all get a Melissa and Doug Puzzle and a book for Christmas.

My 17 month old very recently became attached to her "baby" so I bought some clothes, diapers and a feeding set for her baby. It is a you and me brand. I think I will buy her a new baby too because the one she has is pretty beat up.

She is also VERY much into balls so I bought her a bunch of balls of different sizes and textures, I think the sensory ball and the o ball is included in there, as well as a bouncy ball for her stocking.

She also likes to be grown up so I bought her some jewellery and clothes and a purse.

Other than that she likes Thomas the Train so I am getting her the early engineers set with an extra train. She also loves Wow Wow Wubbzy and music so I got her the Wubb-Idol DVD and a wubbzy doll that talks that I had to order on ebay because it is not available in Canada.
