Is this enough for 2 year old birthday?

[stoptheworldiwanttogeton]

DD is two soon and I've got her some things but I don't know if it's enough. She understands what presents are but not birthdays as such (except that there's cake). She won't really get anything from anyone else so this will be all she's getting. I saved up money every month last year to afford this but now I'm wondering if it's enough (she genuinely doesn't really get gifts throughout the year, just Xmas and birthdays). She doesn't really have any toys to play with as such, she doesn't play with teddies and doesn't have much else, she does colour with crayons. I think I'm worrying because I'm due another baby next month and worried she'll feel left out/jealous so I feel guilty. I've gotten her:

Amazon tablet (we do a lot of travelling in the car/domestic flights so this was more for my sanity than anything else - also paying it monthly)
Vtech bus
Vtech cat in a carrier thing
Small, soft-bodied baby doll (not an expensive one)
1x Teddy (she has loads but loves this specific animal, she doesn't really play with teddies though so starting to regret this now)
Some small hard books (x5)
Some plastic bricks

And that's it. I'm debating on getting her a toy cube thing (like the bead maze with other bits on it) and an inexpensive tea set for pretend tea parties (she's had one before but I lost it ). Is this enough or is there one other thing anyone would add to the list instead of the wooden cube thing (could afford a max of £30 more). TIA

I think it sounds enough. Sounds great. She's only two so doesn't need a huge pile.
Just concentrate on having a lovely day and cake!!

Sounds like too much tbh. More like the amount you would get at Christmas rather than at a birthday

Who decides what is “enough”?

It is all relative to your circumstances. Some people will think that is plenty, others will come on to say it’s excessive.

My DD is older but I have never worried that I have not got her “enough”. Some years the present pile is bigger than others. If DD will like it and play with it then that is enough.

I would say it was plenty. As time has gone on I have started buying less for my kids as they don't use the toys much when they have so many.
If you were tempted to buy anything else, I would buy something she could play in the garden with. Bubble machine etc.
I have 2 winter babies and they never got outdoor toys as it would be months efore the weather was good enough to use them!

I think that sounds like loads! She is a very lucky girl. Hope she has a fab birthday.

My daughter is 2 today and I've given her a leapfrog block set, a fp piggy coin bank thing, two outfits and a couple of soft toys her brother and sister picked her. My mam has her a little toy oven too.
So sounds pretty reasonable to me. And a lovely cake too, which is all she's excited for!

My son was 2 last week. He got a seesaw, slide, vtech bus, music mat and books from us. Think that's plenty!

I would swap the cube for a pushchair for the doll. You can get them as cheap as £10.
It all sounds great otherwise but I am wondering why she doesn't have any other toys?

Yes, that’s a huge amount of tat presents and a two year old really needs a tablet.

Well done you.

@stabbybitch I think her auntie said she has one she no longer uses that she can have for the doll.

Re toys; she has a lot of soft toys (too many) which she has little interest in, she has had electrical toys like microphone/books but they broke (she chucks things a lot- have made the tablet as indestructible as I can), she has some building blocks and two working vtech toys and an electric piano (not a standing one, a lap one). She did have a tea set but I lost it.

When our DD was two we got her a sand/water play table and pram for the doll her uncle gave her!

For me you’ve gone a bit over the top but it’s your child, your money, your choice TBH.

If the doll has a pushchair then I wouldn't rush to get her anything else.
Ahh she does have toys then I thought you meant none at all.
I know how you feel with the breaking of toys tho I have one who does that too.
Have you looked at the leapfrog electronic magnet sets? Numbers or letters there about £10 each I got them for my DS 2nd birthday and he still loves them.

@MegsUterus no need for that and as I said, the tablet is more for me as we have a lot of three hour car journeys/ domestic flights etc.

@stabbybitch thank you, I'll have a look!

I'd like to clarify I've not bought her a replacement tea set or a wooden cube, it was just an idea, I'm just trying to think of toys to play WITH iyswim, as she already has a lot of crayons/teddies etc.

Ive just got my nearly 2 year old a slide and some garden toys so that sounds really good!

How about this picnic set? It's about now that they start to use their imagination more. She could play with this and her cat in the basket at the same time and feed her cat the picnic

Ignore other comments about it being to much or inappropriate. I will admit to spending a lot on my dc for Xmas & bdays and don't care what others think. Plus my DS4 watches YouTube on the tv.

Forgot the photo

It's loads. In fact, considering she doesn't have huge expectations, why not hold back some gifts (or the cash) for something when the baby is born? You might appreciate something brand new to distract her.

@stabbybitch  YouTube as well! That picnic looks really nice, thank you for your recommendations!

Is a wooden cube thing too young then/not worth the money?
@vinegarqueen that's a really good idea that I hadn't thought of, I will definitely hold one back then and say its from the baby?

Was meant to put after YouTube

Yes I learned this trick from a friend who got masses of stuff from relatives for her DS. If they get it all at once it doesn't stay new and exciting, so if you give it out gradually then they love it more, and you get more playtime/distracted toddler. Good luck with your DD and the new little one!

My niece and nephew have that picnic basket and it's very well used.

I've only bought DS an emergency services dolls house for his 2nd birthday.
He'll get lots of things from family and is drowning in toys already

My son turns 2 in June. We've said no presents on the party invite as I know he'll get plenty from grandparents. Tbh, I think the party is enough. I wasn't planning to get him anything

It is a massive hit in this house too. Yeah I would say the cube thing is too young now but would be good for new baby's 1st birthday. Our one never got played with at all. It's only £14.99 on amazon at the moment.

How about one of these lock boards?

Yep YouTube, my DD12 showed him how to get it up on the tv and he hasn't stopped watching Jurassic world toy videos or any kind of dinosaurs since

That should say that the picnic basket is only £14.99 on amazon at the moment
