These are a few of our favourite things (aren't they song lyrics?) for older girls. We especially love the Art Nouveau Workshop from Djeco.
Sigg - the original Swiss bottle and the brand leader for comprehensive, high-quality drinking systems for leisure and sports use. Absolutely leak proof, even with carbonated drinks. Unbeatably tough and light, and taste neutral. Perfect for school lunch boxes. Choose from a variety of styles - 0.6 litre. Fish River Crafts Marionette
Fish River crafts have specialised in the design and manufacture of fine wooden marionettes for more than 25 years. Their high quality string puppets are hand turned, carved and painted and are easy to use and very lifelike. They make a beautiful present for an older child. This Jester is sumptuously dressed in gold and purple trimmed satin. It has a friendly, childish, approachable aspect that is warm and appealing. Folkmanis Puppet - Galapagos Tortoise
One of the most stunning puppets from Folkmanis. This large lumbering creature is very cute - his head pops in and out of his shell. Has workable mouth so both your fingers and arm are working together to operate him. A special gift for an older girl. Length - 44cm. Moulin Roty Sew your own
L'atalier de Couture from Moulin Roty is a ‘sew your own' range of fabric craft toys, each including all the pieces necessary to construct a beautiful soft toy. The Monsieur Oskar the bear kit includes five pieces of different styled fabric, the bear body, ribbon, sewing needle, thread, two buttons, pattern and instructions. It makes one bear 20cm in length. Beautifully gift packaged Raggidy Rag Doll
In a world filled with mass produced imported toys, come a family of lovingly crafted, natural fibre Australian dolls. Raggidy Rag dolls are created to be handed down through generations of children. These gorgeous hand-made dolls make a fabulous and timeless keepsake for an older girl. Being handmade, no doll is quite the same and each one is a limited edition. Djeco Art Nouveau Workshop
This set is our favourite in the current Djeco range. It is best suited to older children who will create four pictures inspired by the works of Gustav Klimt (an Austrian artist of the Vienna Art Nouveau movement who specialised in paintings of females).

Diabolo is a circus based skill toy where a spool is whirled and tossed into the air, then caught on a string suspended between two sticks.
