What does a 1-year old GIRL play with?

It's almost Ava's birthday and people (ok, grandparents! hahaha!) are asking me what to get her. After having 3 boys, I keep looking at tea sets and dolls and cute pink, sparkly things. But...what will she really want to play with at one? Any girl moms got any advice for me???/ So far I'm thinking:

an activity table (wish there were some cute pink ones! Know of any?)


a ball popper (Lucas loved this but it got broken in the move)
and this Little People Palace:

Or is she too young for that?

Okay, girl moms....what were your daughters favorite toys at on year old? Please help!

definitely the ball popper. They don't really get into girly toys quite this early unless it is something they can put in their mouth. Oh, but Usborne books has some super cute books for one year olds... "That's not my fairy", "That's not my princess" etc... They are touchy feely books... perfect for those little explorers.
I would also suggest a little fisher price kitchen (a little one, like this: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3905873) or something... the girls love ours!

another idea would be a soft baby doll.

we love the last item, the castle. Baby dolls and accessories and or a stroller for the baby. We have seen our girls love (even at one) babies!
