It's a wish of practically every little girl - to own their own personal dollhouse.

With the ability to provide endless hours of play, and inspiring creativity and a vivid imagination, it's no wonder that dollhouses are a parent's first pick for their little girls.

But with dollhouses so abundant on today's market, just how does a parent go about choosing which one is right for their little girl?

Well, Melissa and Doug (of Melissa and Doug's children's toys) has made this decision relatively easy for parents. How so?

It's simple - With Melissa and Doug's products, parents know they will be purchasing a well-built, durable, fun and safe product for their child to enjoy for years to come (or to pass down to siblings).

Due to their strict and rigorous safety checks (you can check out Melissa and Doug's safety statement at their website www.melissaanddoug.com ), and their strict compliance with the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA), their company has truly stood by their commitment to make toys that are - in addition to fun and stimulating - safe for your child to play with.

That is why their furnished wooden doll-house is right at the top of my list of gift items to get for my two toddlers.

Made of wood; this portable two-story doll house comes with eighteen pieces of solid wooden furniture, a doll family of four, workable hinged and sliding doors, and a removable atrium with balcony!

All in addition to a sturdy, built-in carrying handle for easy handling.

A great dollhouse that comes with all the works - What more could a little girl want?

All she'll need to add is her imagination!
