Any suggestions for a gift for my one year old godson? I had thought of a push along walker like this www.amazon.co.uk/Tidlo-Wooden-Babywalker-ABC-Blocks/dp/B01E8AZ7HI/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?hsa_cr_id=1773260430802&ref_=sb_s_sparkle&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&ie=UTF8&aaxitk=yIDJiBE33tWbxxoYx2c2jA

but he already has one. Budget is around £50.

Thank you!

Personalised toy box or dinner set

My mum got my DD these for her first birthday and they were by far the best received gifts! She brings them to me numerous times a day to sing the songs.

We've since bought a load more as she loves putting them in and out of bags and bringing me the different animals and creatures when I ask her to. They have a Dear Zoo set that's really nice too.

I would ask the parents if there's anything particular they want, especially with quite a big budget.

Garden toys are good for summer born kids. A cosy coupe, paddling pool or climbing frame?

Presents my DD got at that age that were useful/she liked included: clothing, paddling pool, dinner set (plates, cutlery, cup etc), soft toy animal that made the animal noise when you squeeze it, books with flaps/touchy feely books/noisy books, backpack for nursery, bubbles...

Duplo is a good buy. At 12mo they are at the very youngest age for it, but will grow into it and won't outgrow it for a number of years. If you get something like the train, the child can push it around now and learn to build it themselves as they grow.
A play kitchen is an excellent addition if they don't already have one. Again, it will get use for years to come. You can often pick them up for around £50 (sometimes less) if you shop around, although you may need to get some food/pans for it too. Ours has been the best value toy we've bought if you look at hours played with vs cost (even allowing for us shelling out for all wooden food, so it wasn't cheap).

There are some lovely personalised books around. Wonderbly or Etsy are worth a try. I've found those or a personalised name jigsaw (etsy again) go down quite well, especially if the name is a little unusual.
