I'd probably go the non-battery operated option - the less stuff to potentially break down the better at that age. I gave my DD a 3 wheeler pram and she LOVED it, she was about the same age.
Some of the accessories for Baby Born are cool too, like the bottles and little clothes, she might need a bit of help to start off with but they soon get the hang of dressing/undressing baby and everything.
Our DD got a baby born for her 2nd b'day from her grandparents, she loves it. It came with a potty, bottle, dummy and a few other little things. We don't bother with feeding it real food or actual water, just pretend The doll doesn't have batteries but the potty does and plays music and flushes.
We just picked up a cheap stroller from target i think to go with it. The first night after she unwrapped it it had to have a bath with her and she still plays with it most days a few months on.
Have you seen the 'my first baby born' doll or something simlar - it's a smaller version and has a soft body - can still go in the bath with your daughter. Isla loves hers - got it last Christmas when she was 2 and 4 months and still loves it to bits. You can get separate clothes for it too so she can (give it to you to) change the outfits :-)
