1st birthday gift ideas

[Anotherdayinmumlife]

I have a few weeks yet just not sure what to get. Only going to get a couple of things, but family are asking what to get too. Anything your little ones got their money worth from and played with a lot? Everyone seems to buy a ball pit, don't have a clue if it would get its use!

Sandpit, ball run, books, musical instruments. He got a ride on but not quite into that yet.

My 20 month old has got great use since she has turned one out of a walker (the push along ones rather than the ones they sit in), a little ride on, a sandpit in the garden, and a toy kitchen.

Any suggestions for someone without a lot of space (and no garden)?

Second child as well!

Bubble machine?

I wouldn’t ask for two many toys, at that age they just want to roam- oh maybe a plastic tunnel they can crawl through: www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/outdoor/play-houses-and-tents/kid-active-pop-up-tunnel/p/101810?gclid=Cj0KCQjwvIT5BRCqARIsAAwwD-R2UGS1gY-hSxLtrpJBbNfMNizAkCye5XJxPyxFhdCewW7knPaNOV0aAp00EALw_wcB
Maybe some cars, books.
It’s good to use the early years for things they need- like winter clothes for the next age up/ pyjamas.

Cozy coupe and lots of books

Toy kitchen was a massive hit when eldest turned 1 and still played with multiple times daily by both my children (now 3.5 and nearly 2)

Cardboard box

Only kidding. The Grimms building blocks were the best present we got for my one year old. They're gorgeous and really light.
