Maybe ask some girlfriends of yours if they have any stuff that they don't use... such as a hairdryer. You can cut the cord so it's not able to be plugged in. I have 2 little girls, and they LOVE playing with stuff that is real (but un-usable)like mine. Also, you'd be suprised how much a little one will love just plain 'ol chapstick! (like lipstick, but no color or mess!)
