Christmas Gift Ideas Needed - 19 months/Girl

My DD will be 19 months old at Christmas time. I am really struggling with toys that will keep her occupied. I notice alot of girl toys are pretend which is great but I also want stuff to keep her entertained.

What I have so far:

Play Kitchen
Play Food
Shopping Cart
Bowling Set
Little People Princess Castle
Doll/Doll Stroller/Feeding Set

Everyone is asking me for ideas and I am at a loss. She loves music so I don't mind toys that make noise but I can't even come up with ideas. She just got a ton of megabloks so that is out..

Dd loves music-she has a Melissa and Doug piano, Melissa and doug beginner band set, CD player with cd's, Let's rock Elmo with all the accessories.

For Christmas she is getting a Remo kids drum and tambourine (she uses them in her music class and loves them), egg shakers and tone block.

She is also getting a power wheels car, step 2 slide, books, easel, puzzles and clothes.

are all your DDs the same age as the original post?

My DD is 18 months and doesn't have half the stuff listed (space in our 1 bedroom is also a reason).
I'm not even sure if she would "get/understand" the toys listed.

A friend bought her some kid's legos, but she doesn't really get the "putting it together" part. All she does is pull them apart (after I connect them) and then drop it on the floor (to make a noise)

Like the kitchen, I don't think she understands preparing food, etc, so she wouldn't understand playing in a kitchen.

My dd is nearly 20 months old but she has been playing with many of the toys listed above for the past few months. She pretends to cook for me and DH and her dolls. She plays tea party. She is able to build with mega blocks and regular wooden blocks.
We started by playing these things with her and with in a short time she began to initiate on her own. Trying modeling the behavior and see if she follows.

Dd will be just over 17 mo at Xmas.

Her gifts this year:

Easel
Bowling,tball, and golf sets
Books
Art supplies
Toy dyson

I also have the bounce house and mini trampoline on her list, as well as a baby doll and accessories.

For her first we got her a play kitchen with a bunch of food and she received the Melissa and Doug shopping cart which is super nice.

She's played with all this stuff before at friends/the babysitter. And she has loved her kitchen since the day we set it up!

My daughter is turning 3 but the items I listed are the things she played with around 18 mos and what she got around age 2 that have been well-loved by her. We moved when she was 18 mos (from a 1-bedroom apt) amd spent 6 mos with relatives, so I remember those 18-24 month toys well!

She started with the kitchen around 20 mos., and honestly any form of play is play. What's wrong with her disconnecting Legos and dropping them? She's working on fine motor skills and cause and effect, gravity, etc.

I have a son who will be 19 months in December. We are buying him a kitchen with food and pots, a toy vaccuum, a slide/climber for our basement, some wooden puzzles since he is enjoying the few we have lately, a few Mickey Mouse things. Oh, and a few little people sets. Hope this helps!

At that age dd was very into dolls. She had a small m&d doll she carried all over and the feeding set that went with it. Sheet loved feeding her doll and other stuffed animals. She loved pushing them in her shopping cart with a bag over her shoulder. She got a doll crib and stroller for Christmas. She also got the little people dollhouse, the btoys cat keyboard (loves this still), potato head, m&d bear family dress up which she still loves, m&d cookie set, aquadoodle, puzzles, water wow books and paint with water books.

My DS is 18 months and has been playing with all those things too but he follows what his big sister does. He can build with legos and uses the kitchen more than his sister ever did. He's big on bringing us cups of tea.

Other suggestions -

The fisher price laugh and learn tea set is great

Also, the little people zoo is fun
