Hello! My DD will be 11 months at Christmas and im after some ideas for her. We got her a ball ramp in B&M today which she'll love. She already has a sorting toy, a stacking toy and those squeaky eggs. We also have 4 year old DS so have lots of cars and a play kitchen. Any ideas appreciated!

Thanks :)

A cardboard box and wrapping paper - best present ever at that age group. Save your money for when they become expensive and what new phones, laptops etc

At that age the big hit was an indoor play tent/Wendy house

My DD will be 10 months and she will be getting:

If you've already got something she'll love, and lots of toys because of older child, then how about something practical like clothes in next size up, cutlery/bowl and plate set, sleep bags etc? Money towards baby groups/classes? Keep sake money box?

I will also have an 11 month old at Christmas! Based on what he enjoys now I've thought of:
A touch and feel Christmas book
A ceiling projector light
Light up bath toys

My DD loved her magnadoodle at around 1 year old she still loves it now 6 months on.

Its a great way to let them scribble and be artsy without mess too.

Mind is 13 months old and his most played with things are his laugh and learn chair, little tikes activity garden and balls :P I'm trying to choose a kitchen for him for Christmas but there seems to be hundreds to choose from 🙈

Yes yes yes to the laugh and learn chair.

We gave one to my eldest for her 1st birthday. She loved it. We wrapped it up for my now 15 month old for her 1st birthday and she just adores it. Always sitting on it and playing with the buttons.

She's been walking since 10 months so getting a (second hand and free) scuttlebug for Christmas. I have a 5 year old and nearly 4 year old so can safely say we have all the toys.

She also has a handed down pop and drop digger mentioned above and loves pushing it around.

Magnadoodle may be a stocking present for us as our original one was wrecked and ended up in the bin.
