Dress Up Clothes for 2-yr-old Girl

[Pilsy]

My Frosty’s Friend’s hobbies include dolls and playing dress up.  


Any suggestions for dress-up clothes suitable for a 2-yr-old?  Everything I see on Amazon is indicated for slightly older/bigger girls.  This LO is in size 2T clothes.  


The sheet says she loves yellow and pink so bonus points for anything with those colors.  



I already bought four of the six toys listed on the wish list, so the gift isn’t riding on this; I just want to include anything i can to excite her.  


Also looking for age-appropriate touch and feel books.  Most everything I’m seeing seems terribly babyish.

What about hats? The firefighter and police and chef hats are super popular in C's class and don't really depend on size. Ditto superhero capes.

Is there a specific request for touch and feel books? C really likes Press Here, which is really interactive but not babyish. Also any book that has those buttons along the side to play music.

Hats sound great to me!  Chef hats - ha!  That’s a riot.  Cute.  

And yes, the sheet specifically said “touch and feel” but “Press Here” might be close enough.  They did tell us to get creative and not kill ourselves to get certain things.  They said that with regard to requests for iPods and such, suggesting less inexpensive substitutions are perfectly acceptable.  I’d think the same guidelines apply here.  I’ll look into more books.  

Thanks for the ideas.

Would you be up for making a tutu? They are no sew and great for dressup at that age.

We got DS several M&D costumes at 2.5. They are actually a bit too small for him! They're adjustable hats and jackets, so if the sleeves are too long they can just be rolled up.

Our local toy store also has wings, like butterflies, angels, and birds.

There are a million tutorials. I usualy do mine as a double or triple layer in each knot to make them nice and poofy.

Here is also a tutorial for a wand if you are feeling ambitious. I have made them before with extra tulle and they are well received
