Nothing electronic. Things that will help her use her imagination. Puzzles, books, coloring books and activities. Help her use her mind not just machines.

What is she into? At that age they should get excited when they see something. My five yr old, when she was that age, loved it when she saw Barney, Dora, and Blue's Clues so I would get her educational toys involving them. Like I got this blues clues mailbox thing where it had all of the alphabet on it and it would teach her how to pronounce the letters and sound them out. They also love movies so you can get her some of those. I've found a lot of Dora, Barney, Sesame Street, and other DVDs in the $5.50 bin at Walmart. They also love baby dolls so you can get her a pretty inexpensive one so that she can "practice" on that one, then work your way up to the better models. I think that I also got my daughter a bike when she was around 3 and she loved that to death. Good luck to you!

Show her the ads in the paper, or the big toy book from Toysrus, she will let you know what she is interested in.If you really want to be creative take her to the toy store and help her make a list of things she wants for Christmas then let her deliver her list directly to Santa.

Try the Leapster line of learning toys. They have so many options now from Leappads that they can hold in their lap to ones that they can hook to the TV and play and learn and have fun at the same time. Good Luck.

It really depends on what she's into. We got our son a tricycle when he was three for Christmas. Now he's 5 and doesn't need the training wheels anymore. Wal-mart and Target have some good ones. Good luck

LOL my son did the SAME thing! He too is 3 1/2...must be the age! I am getting my son some of his favorites (he is really into Starwars for some weird reason so he's getting some of those transformers and of course cars and monster trucks, typical boy stuff) but them I'm also getting him some fun educational stuff.
He has a My first LeapPad and I'm getting him the older-kid version of it, the LeapPad plus writing. He is working on writing his letters so that should be great for him.
The LeapFrog Letter Factory game is a great new game for preschoolers, I am getting that for him too.
He is really into games now that he understands taking turns and stuff better so I'm getting him Crocodile Dentist and go-fish (color matching) is one of his favorites too.
My son got a V-Smile for Christmas last year so I'm getting him some more games for that...he still REALLY loves to play it.

Either educational toys. Like Leapfrog Products, or dolls. Not small ones, they can have dangerous pieces she may swallow

Get her the liberty pony. That is what I got my daughter for her 3rd birthday. It is a giant springhorse that you can ride on. She has a blast and wears herself out.

A princess doll and a leapfrog pad, which teaches early math and early phonics and it's so fun.
