Our next toy pick for 2009 is the ChixOs Design-A-Luxury Loft. This creative toy is relatively inexpensive and gives kids the control to create their own dolls and customize their luxury loft. There are three interchangeable pieces to each doll, that your child can connect together. Once they have them configured, spray the doll with water and she’ll stay together that way. Just as you put the doll together, you can use PixOs beads to create furniture and accessories for the house. (Judging from the reviews on Toys R Us, you may want to purchase an extra set or two of PixOs beads too.) Once all the building is done, kids can play with the toy just like they would any other dollhouse, so the fun’s not over once the beads are gone. Cute toy, with extra points for creativity!
