Default Translation Help Please!

hi again!

as per my previous thread...

shipping from canada to santo domingo

i am shipping clothes, school supplies and toiletries to an orphange in santo domingo and received an email from the orphange co-orindator with a list of things that the kids really need. unforunately, my spanish isnt up to par yet (to put it mildly) and though i was able to translate some of her email, i want to make sure i get everything. i dont know anyone who can translate this so im hoping that a fellow DR1er will be nice enough to translate for me. here it goes:

COMO ME SOLICITASTE ANTERIORMENTE QUE COMPRA
NECESITAMOS TENIS DE NIÑOS Y NIÑAS DE LOS NUMEROS ENTRE 12 Y 14 DE NIÑOS Y
DEL NUMERO 3 AL 6 DE LOS MEDIANOS.
TAMBIEN PUEDEN COMPRAR MEDIAS Y ROPA INTERIOR PARA NIÑAS Y NIÑOS ENTRE
LAS EDADES DE 04 AÑOS HASTA 12 AÑOS
POLOS ESCOLARES CON CUELLO Y T-SHIRT
JABONES DE BAÑO EN PAST Y EN GEL
CEPILLAS DE DIENTES Y PARA EL PELO
PEINES GANCHITOS , CINTILLOS Y VENDAS PARA LAS NIÑAS
SANDALITAS PARA EL DIARIO EN LA CASA Y ZAPATILLAS PARA LAS
EDAES QUE TE MENCIONE ANTERIORMENTE PARA HEMBRAS Y VARONES.

GRACIAS POR TODO SASCHA , DIOS TE RETORNARA TUS ATENCIONES EN BENDICIONES PARA TU

if anyone can help me out with this, i would really appreciate it!

thanks in advance,
sascha

This is more or less it:

As you have asked me what (you can) buy, we need boys' and girls' tennis shoes, size 12-14 for children and size 3-6 of the medium sized ones. You can also buy socks and underwear for boys and girls between the ages of 4 and 12. School polo shirts (with collar) and t shirts. Bath soap and shower gel. Toothbrushes and hairbrushes, combs and hairclips, headbands and hairgrips/ribbons/elastic grips for the girls, sandals for everyday use in the house and slippers/flipflops for the ages mentioned earlier for boys and girls.
Thanks for everything Sascha, God will reward your care with blessings for you.
