I've decided to get DD a Corolle Calin for Christmas (she'll be 15 mos). I understand that the Calin is good for this age mainly b/c of the size, but she'll probably upgrade to a larger size baby in the future.

So, what brand accessories - cradle, stroller, highchair, etc - do we buy? Can anyone recommend certain accessories they love (brands, stores)? Also are most accessories the same size - will they fit the Calin doll and any larger dolls we may get in the future (specifically, we already have a Bitty Baby that we'll give to her when she's a bit older).

Thanks!

We bought this stroller for DD when she was starting to walk an she still uses it all the time with "baby". http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Brilliant-Basics-Stroll-Along-Walker/dp/B0015KVXW8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1258131622&sr=8-1 We aren't going to replace it with an umbrella style stroller until she is bigger, maybe 2, because it is so sturdy. My mom bought her this cradle http://www.amazon.com/KidKraft-60101-Lil-Doll-Cradle/dp/B0002V84TQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1258131746&sr=1-1 Its very nice but DD doesn't play with it at all. DS has used it more than DD. I use it to hold her dolls and their clothes. Its big enough that it can hold Bitty Baby later though so when she gets one of those we have a nice cradle for them. I was looking to get DD this high chair for christmas http://www.amazon.com/Badger-Toys-Highchair-Plate-Spoon/dp/B0001XNTJA/ref=pd_sbs_t_3 its $18 shipped from costco. I haven't seen IRL yet but the reviews are good and at $18 its a gamble I'm willing to take. I would recomend getting a couple new outfits. I found some at Walmart (no brand name just said "doll clothes") they came 2 for $5. My DD likes to take the clothes off and try and redress the doll again. Hope that helps.
