I am a sucker for cute little dish sets like this one from Baby CIE.  Somehow these beautiful, coordinated sets lull me into the belief that meal times will be clean and uneventful.  That never quite happens, but the sets sure are cute, and my kids always love them.

The Baby CIE Ballerina Dish Box Set is a top of the line set.  It includes a great divided tray, a spoon, a bowl, and a cup.  All are made of high-quality melamine and feature an adorable print of poodles and ballerinas labeled in French.  Any little girl will love this set, and it would make a great gift.  You can purchase one for $34 at MilkShop.com.

Summer is beginning to come to a close, but there is always time to catch a little more sun, and there are still lots of great bathing suits out there for little ones.  This is a very cute suit from the Australian company Seafolly.  The Ballerina Skirtini Bikini features a pink paisley print on a white background.  Any little girl will feel special in this suit with its ruffled top and tulle-flounced skirt.

Best of all, the company is known for its high-quality products and has a large following among celebrity moms such as Angelina Jolie, Courteney Cox, and Brooke Shields, so you know you will be satisfied with your purchase.

You can get one of these great suits for an end of the summer price of $41.90 at Nordstrom.com.

A sweet splurge for your budding ballerina, the Novelty Shapes Petal Tutu is the kind of gift a toddler girl’s dreams are made of. Even if your child is not in dance, I think having a collection of dress-up clothes is wonderful for a child’s imagination.

You can even add music (press a button on the tutu and hear it play!), such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, for an additional $5.00, something I certainly wouldn’t pass up when purchasing.

Made with shimmery tulle, Petal Tutus come in sizes specified by you. Measure your child’s waist and record that with your ordering information. Other options include tulle color and petal shapes - shamrocks, butterflies, snowflakes, hearts, stars, and moons.
