DS will be 3 mo at Christmas. Soon DHs parents will ask what to buy him for approx £80 for Christmas
Any suggestions?

We already have a sit it music static walker type thing, floor playmat and all the practical things.

What would be worth buying other than clothes?

Thanks

OP, I can see why it might seem a bit of a waste getting something that can't be used until next summer, but you could get several years out of a garden toy but most indoor things for babies have a fairly limited shelf life.

Sweet - because I'll be in work and can't take baby to a class or farm other than on the weekend. On the weekend, I would then have to pay for three other DCs to go to the activity or find something else for them. Plus it's the opening of the gift they like - a reaction from the child.

Yes, theday, I see your point. Little tikes car or truck might be a good plan

If you don't have them already: merino wool sleeping bag or a sheepskin pram liner. Looovely things. Ok they are not "fun toys" but at 3mo he won't react to much to be honest.

Oh I see Grin ....

It sounds very odd to me, I don't see why the child has to have a toy. Why not special keep sake from them, silver necklace or locket etc.

^but at 3mo he won't react to much to be honest. w3ell he better - they are expecting one Confused

Little tikes turtle sandpit and sand. Ours is a toddler magnet. DS got it for his first birthday but would have used it earlier. Even older children seem to love it.

A photo album of family members at different ages. Quite a sturdy one so you can look at it with your child from them being tiny.
