The Disney princesses were big in my house — each one a celebrity in her own right, all beloved by my kid from about ages 2 to 6. Now my nieces have cycled through princess love as well, and there are new ones. Moana, for instance, is frequently put in the lineup, even though Moana herself points out in Moana 2 that she's "still not a princess."
If you're looking for a gift that let's your kid act out Disney princess storylines, we've got lots of ideas. We test toys all year and are toy guide specialists. In addition, we bring that parent factor. I had a Disney princess kid, and many of my coworkers are going through the princess phrase with their kids now, so we get it!

Toddlers can play with Disney princesses, too! Little People makes playsets, like Elsa's ice palace, for ages 18 months and up. This one comes with Elsa and Olaf, plus magical touches like an ice formation that can rise to "grow." Put Elsa on a spot inside the doors, which open up, to hear part of "Let It Go."
There are other playsets, like Arendelle Castle, so you have Anna, too. There's also a toddler version of a pink princess castle which comes with Little-People versions of Cinderella and Jasmine. You can supplement that with a set of six Little People Disney Princesses. Ages 18 months to 5
Toys tied to Moana 2 have been popular — at press time, Amazon couldn't even give a delivery date for the LEGO version of Moana's wayfinding boat. This affordable alternative features a Moana action figure, Heihei the rooster and accessories like a hammock, plus a below-deck hideaway where she can rest. Ages 3+
My kid never tired of hearing me read stories of Jasmine, Snow White and the rest of the gang. This boxed set of 12 books, each with the beautiful spine that's a hallmark of Little Golden Books, includes their tales and more, from classics like Cinderella to modern narratives like Brave. It receives near-perfect Amazon reviews! Ages 2 to 5

Exercise their mind by sharpening their focus with 12 reusable scenes of seek-and-find games, all themed to the Disney princesses. There are six double-sided mats with pictures inspired by The Little Mermaid, Moana, Cinderella and more. Two dry-erase markers and a wipe-off cloth are included. Ages 3 to 6
For a useful, practical gift, Pottery Barn sells crib-sheet-size Disney Princess sheets with a gorgeous, vintage look — and the sheets are organic cotton. The brand is our best overall choice for the best crib sheets. Use them with your baby, or with your toddler or preschooler who is in a toddler bed (which uses the same-size mattress). This set comes with one pillowcase and a flat sheet which are both for toddler use only.
One of our most popular gift guide items, this Amazon exclusive lets a kid dress as a Disney princess. It features four dresses and many accessories — 21 pieces altogether, including necklaces, headbands, stickers and a soft tiara. Outfits are themed to Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora and Belle. There's a second version with outfits for Tiana, Ariel, Jasmine and Rapunzel. The clothes fit sizes 4 to 6x. Ages 3+

If her love of princesses is only rivaled by an obsession with ballet or at least tutus, this line of princess ballerinas checks both boxes — and the dolls are an under-$10 bargain. Each Barbie-size doll has a removable skirt and built-in (so they can't fall off!) ballet slippers. There's also Cinderella and Tiana. Ages 3+
For the first time in forever they can sing along with the hits of the original Frozen movie, including "Let It Go," "In Summer" and "For The First Time in Forever." Though this is preloaded with those tunes, you can also hook it up to any MP3 player to stream any songs of your choice. The wired microphone helps kids hear themselves, and lights blink along. Ages 3+
My hot take, as a mom who bought more than a dozen princess dresses over the years: The ones from the official Disney Store are worth the money if what you're wanting is a realistic princess dress for a special occasion, like a party, versus just play clothes for playdates. I had success washing them in the gentle cycle on cold and hanging them to dry. Sizes 3 to 9/10
Parent testers told us this Ariel doll holds up to play in the bath and even on the beach. She's modeled after the Disney Jr. character and kids love that, when in water, she can sport a water-fountain skirt over her fishtail! Batteries are included. Ages 3+

Ariel sporting her water skirt!
Three stories high, four feet tall and full of fun touches, like Jasmine's magic carpet, this castle is made to be a doll's house for fashion-doll-size princesses. (That's toy-world code for Barbie size). Your princess lover probably already owns a few dolls, but if not, Mattel sells a pack of 13 princesses packaged together. or you can buy them individually and just get your child's faves.
Kids delight over all the small parts, like the spinning clock and some 25 other play pieces and furniture including a bed, bathtub and stove, plus a steep water slide down to a wading pool. Ages 3+

Like paper dolls, except a heck of a lot sturdier — this Cinderella is made of wood, and kids can change her outfits endlessly because they stick on with magnets. Genius! There are 30 pieces included, and other sets for Ariel and Belle, or for a little more money a set with both vintage Cinderella and Snow White. Ages 3+
LEGO makes oh-so-many fantastic Disney princess sets, it was hard to land on just one to recommend, but this Cinderella Castle gets more than a thousand five-star Amazon reviews. It's for preschoolers who have graduated from Duplo but aren't yet on to more elaborate builds. Highlights include the Cinderella doll with a crown, Lucifer the cat, party hats and a brick showing the missing glass slipper. (If your kid is still age 2 or 3, check out something like the Duplo Elsa and Olaf's Tea Party.) Ages 4+
The beauty of Candy Land is you don't have to be able to read to play, you just follow the color directions on each card: move two blue squares, etc. In this princess edition, you might also be sent to the Sebastian square, or to Cinderella's mice. Each player is a princess — Ariel, Cinderella or Rapunzel — and the first player to reach the enchanted castle wins. Two to three players, ages 3+
Another recent Best Toy Award Winner, this is all the fun of a remote-control vehicle but with a princess carriage. Best part: A princess doll can ride inside.
Parents whose kids toy-tested this for us gave it lots of praise. One said, "My daughter loved the remote control and creating imaginary scenes with the carriage and her dolls." Batteries included. Ages 4+
Rapunzel, with her purple and gold gown and long blonde hair, is stunning as an 18-inch American Girl doll. The doll brand is frequently featured in our Good Housekeeping Best Toy Awards for its high quality and attention to detail — we love Rapunzel's freckles, for instance, and her flower hair clip.
There are four other princesses available, too, including Moana with her shell necklace and long dark curls, Ariel with long red waves, Tiana with her hair in a bun and a tiara and Cinderella with her hair up and delicate blue earrings. Ages 6+
For kids who love blind bags, each of these eight mini Disney princesses are hiding behind a door and your kid can reveal them one at a time, then play with the 1.5-inch figures. They are indeed adorable, but also super small, so they're not for toddlers. Ages 5+
