[Handmade] A handmade Christmas present you’d like to give to a 3-year-old girl

20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

As Christmas approaches each year, many people find themselves wondering, “What should I give as a Christmas present?” In particular, many families struggle to decide on gifts for their children.

In this article, we introduce handmade Christmas gift ideas for 3-year-old girls.

At this age, they want to try doing the same things adults do, like wearing accessories and trying makeup, so we’ve gathered delightful ideas—such as pretend play items and accessories—that will make their eyes light up.

Try making a gift that matches your child’s preferences and the caregiver’s strengths.

Clothes for dolls and stuffed animals

How about giving a three-year-old girl who loves dolls and stuffed animals some dedicated outfits? Store-bought ones are fine, but if you make them by hand, it’ll feel more heartfelt and could make for the best Christmas.

Sleeveless dresses are recommended because they can fit a variety of stuffed animals! Since there are no sleeves, they’re easier to sew, even for beginners.

A key tip is to add hook-and-loop fastener at the back so your child can easily put the dress on and take it off.

Choose fabric that matches the style of the dolls or stuffed animals your child owns, and give it a try!

I tried DIY-ing a pretend-play washing machine using cardboard and 100-yen store items!

If you’re wondering what to get your child for Christmas, how about a handmade washing machine that’s perfect for pretend play? It’s also recommended if you’d like to give a toy washing machine but find store-bought ones too expensive.

Since it uses cardboard and items from the dollar store, it’s budget-friendly and won’t cost much! A front-loading washing machine has a door on the front for putting in laundry, which might make it easier for kids to play with.

You can use a rigid card case or similar to create a window in the door so kids can see the laundry inside.

If you have the time, adding “detergent” props will make the pretend-wash experience feel even more realistic.
