I'm due in 5 weeks, and would really like to get DS who's 3 a memorable present from the baby. Does anyone have a good ideas at all? DS can be quite spoilt by family members, so don't really want to just buy him any toy!

TIA! :)

Would he play with a doll/teddy? That way he could change and feed it whilst you are changing and feeding the new baby. Or some books so that you can look at them together whilst feeding the baby?

We bought a t shirt with the slogan "I'm the big brother" and then a little romper with "I'm the baby brother!" on them . He was really chuffed, made for some cute photos aswell. They were from Amazon.

My baby came with peppa and George pig so that big brother can push them in a toy buggy.

We bought DS1 a really nice version of the Thomas the Tank train that shares his name.

He still says 'this is the train DS2 bought me'.

We bought DS a drill- he was thrilled. We also bought a box of animals and when anyone visited with a present for the baby, we would let him pick out one of the animals from a box to play with. I think this really helped him to feel special and included as he was only 2 at the time.

Brio train set. My friends did this and son (3) loved it. And baby (and others) can always add to it if needed.

Ds1 and 2 both had kidizoom cameras when dd was born (they were 4 and 6 and loved taking photos pf their new sister)
