What a lovely website. I loved a lot of the products on there but especially the umbrellas and cute dressing gowns.

I can't wait for spring after the gloomy winter we've had. It's just nice to be able to start getting the kids out and about at weekends without having to prepare for every weather eventuality or worry about the roads being too icy.

Oops I can't do links so I'll do pics instead.

Looking forward to us all taking the dog for a walk without a major clean up operation of dog and wellies on return!
Favourite item is the grey wooden guitar.

I love this toy box www.my1styears.com/pink-star-toy-chest.html great for keeping her bedroom tidy, and a great keepsake for years to come. I am looking forward to getting my garden furniture out in the next few weeks cleaning it off, getting the toys out of the shed at watching my little ones ride up and down on their ride on toys, all rosie cheeked and happy. Bye bye winter come quickly spring.

I'm looking forward to longer evenings to make it pleasurable getting out with the dogs, and to the open air swimming pools and lakes opening again!

I thought the taggy was really cute, and the sort of thing I'd buy as a present

peanutbutter310 · 05/02/2018 14:07

I like the cloud shelf - www.my1styears.com/personalised-white-cloud-shelf

The grey guitar was a close second!

My DD is just learning to walk, and so I'm looking forward to when the weather improves and we can spend time toddling around the garden together!

I love this toy chest - always looking for ways to make my house look less like a bomb site, and this looks really tasteful and practical.

I love spring. I just can't wait to start doing more outdoorsy things with the kids again without freezing my backside off. There's a beautiful woods and gardens near us that are stunning when all the blosson and spring flowers start to come out.

DuskPanda · 05/02/2018 19:28

Love the cloud night light: www.my1styears.com/personalised-white-cloud-night-light.html
Can't wait for Spring to get out into the garden. There'll be jobs for the whole family. Need to ready for all those Summer barbecues!

Treaclespongeandcustard · 05/02/2018 20:02

Im looking forward to seeing the spring flowers and to going for long walks and picnics with the kids. My favourite item is the range of lovely lunch boxes - with names on too to save arguments www.my1styears.com/personalised-flamingo-print-mini-lunch-box.html

missymousey · 05/02/2018 21:10

I'm loving this... thinking ahead to Father's Day www.my1styears.com/hero-sidekick-set.html

My spring plan is to go back to work after mat leave - eek! Aside from that, it's to get my LO outside enjoying the daffodils, birds and squirrels and the blossom on the trees. He was born April last year, and on our first trip out of the house together I sat down in the park and cried with happiness (and hormones)!

kateandme · 05/02/2018 21:39

I love it when the light starts to change.it seems different.the sun more golden the air clearer and brighter!and seeing the blooms coming out in everyones garden is so heartwarming.
I love the little night lights.
id like one myself

Blahblahblueblee · 05/02/2018 23:14

There are so many lovely things on the website! I loved the xylophone, and also this water bottle. I like that it has a name on... we have the same water bottles as a few others in preschool so we get mixed up and the name tends to come off in the dishwasher so these bottles are cute and practical! www.my1styears.com/personalised-colourful-animal-print-water-bottle.html

We have just got a year pass to a local zoo type place, so this spring we will be going there a lot to see the young animals :)

TheWizardofWas · 06/02/2018 09:10

Love instruments, so it is the drum for.me.

Spring is a time when the communal garden behind our flat comes back to life. I love to sit here with DC spying on the wildlife. Also long walks and staying out all day as the light lengthens.

My 1st Years have just released their Spring collection and would like you to take a look on their website here and select your favourite item from their new collection. Let us know what catches your eye (ideally with a link for everyone interested in your favourite).

I like these: www.my1styears.com/personalised-star-and-moon-bookends.html They'd make a great gift for someone with a baby or toddler.

We would also love to know what your plans are for the coming Spring. Any exciting outings or adventures planned for the Easter holidays? How about visits to the park, bike rides or beach trips? Maybe you’ve got a city break planned?

Ski-ing in half-term and then family gathering for the Easter weekend.

TheKnackeredChef · 06/02/2018 12:12

I like this set from the Gifts for Dads section: www.my1styears.com/hero-sidekick-set.html It's very cute and would be perfect for a new dad, especially as they perhaps get a bit overlooked in all the excitement of a new baby.

My plans for spring are to get my new picnic company up and running. We've worked so hard over the winter getting everything ready so we're hoping to get some bookings once the weather picks up.

CopperPan · 06/02/2018 12:27

Some lovely gifts on the website. I know Christmas isn't for ages but this personalised stocking is really cute and I love the idea of each child getting a special one with their name on.
www.my1styears.com/personalised-red-letter-to-santa-stocking.html

This spring we're having a short break to Edinburgh and then just enjoying the outdoors more locally - visiting some big parks and national trust properties.

colleenw · 06/02/2018 13:06

I'd love the personalised cloud shelves.

I can't wait to have picnics in the parks and long spring walks with the dog. I can't wait for a bit of warmth and lighter evenings.

sherbertlemon17 · 06/02/2018 13:44

Spring for us means continuing the renovations and decorating our new family home. The star and moon book ends and personalised cloud shelf would look perfect in my sons new nursery! He’ll be moving in there in the next couple of months!!

Jaderice21 · 06/02/2018 14:00

www.my1styears.com/pink-star-toy-chest.html absolulty love really gorgeous and a great price too the whole collection is fab but i was most drawn to this im a huge fan of personalused items

peronel · 06/02/2018 16:01

Love the waffle dressing gown.
This spring I am most looking forward to sorting out the garden to make a little haven for us all to relax in and enjoy.

NewMama12 · 06/02/2018 20:14

I love this: www.my1styears.com/personalised-white-cloud-shelf.html

This spring I’m going to be enjoying the last few months of mat leave before going back to work after my first DC ☹️

Someaddedsugar · 06/02/2018 20:24

We are really looking forward to Spring now that DS is enjoying sensory time and will be able to see the new season.

The new collection is beautiful, and I especially like this quilt which would look perfect in DS’s nursery!

Someaddedsugar · 06/02/2018 20:25

@NewMama12 I’m in the same position and wish I had a few more months!

mrsminx · 06/02/2018 20:26

It may be spring but you still need to keep snuggly warm in the mornings and evenings. My son would love this dressing gownwww.my1styears.com/personalised-blue-striped-robe.html, especially when we have a lazy weekend morning and stay in our PJs!

Spring for our family is when we can start to spend more time outside, especially now my son can ride his bike. Lots of walks and time as a family having fun in the fresh air
