And the best toy for a one year old is..

[Twiglett]

a bean bag

(worked with DS and is not giving DD lots of giggles too)

very much worth the investment

lol! i bought one for dh so he could sit in it and play xbox, but its really the dd's 'friend' (as dd1 calls it)

Or that old favourite, a cardboard box!!

Anything her big sister is playing with, cue "muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum dd2 got my toyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" etc

ooo .. just imagine a bean bag in a cardboard box

Large label with a small piece of fluff attached.

wooden spoons and/or plastic bowls from ikea

a cheap set of plastic untensils, or Water.

clothes pegs and a washing basket
