My youngest daughter has two Bitty Twins-Paige and Henry. We did not buy them as a set. Paige was passed onto Gwenie this Christmas from her older sister and was originally a pre-used doll. We bought Henry at American Girl Place NYC last year. My daughter was happy to give Henry a sister to play with that was a "toddler too!" instead of just the Bitty Babies.

Gwenie has a few pieces of the Bitty Baby furniture (mostly passed onto her by her sister) including the retired crib, retired high chair that separates into a chair and table, the changing table, and the retired version of the car seat ( a Thrifty Fabulous Find!) However, she is starting to also play with 18" dolls. I would really like to encourage her to play with the Bitty Twins more since they are more of a toddler version doll. I think this would help her in a lot of play experiences with her little friends and give her a chance to practice ways to play appropriately (she has sensory and behavior issues.)

I am contemplating either buying a table and chair play set for her Bitty Twins from American Girl in order to help promote this "practice play." See link here:
Bitty Twin Art & Music Play Table or making her my own version. While, at $48.00, this set is not unreasonably priced, I feel compelled to make my own version. Maybe I will make my version first and then, if we are able to take a trip to the AG Place in D.C., buy a table there. Not sure....What do you think?
