    You have to get creative these days. But I will tell you when it comes to cat toys, she prefers ones we have not purchased. Like a wine cork, a sock ball, etc.

    My daughter has been into watching youtube videos where you make doll furniture and accessories out of common house hold items. My son would love to try those straw airplanes.
