About this list:
Toys do not discriminate. They know not how young or old you are. They won't even divulge your deepest, darkest secrets. All they really want is to get off the shelf and into the hands of someone who wants to play. So, go ahead: pick up a toy or game that sparks your imagination . . . or one that used to not so very long ago. Here are a few I have recently stumbled upon.

I am just a little girl in a big girl outfit.

Anatomy Jane Doll
First to recommend
Description
Yes, indeed a supplier has suddenly popped up peddling something very similar to the "Anatomy Jane" doll Meredith Grey toted around as a little girl at Seattle Grace Hospital. The website is still under production, but the doll looks pretty real. Keep your fingers crossed that they will deliver in time for the holidays. Whether you just love Meredith or you know a child who is destined to be a doctor, this is a super and timely present. Good gifting.
