Ready for the end of the Winter gloom? Eagerly awaiting the arrival of Spring and the warmer weather that it will bring? Well we are! And we’d love to hear about what you have planned for Spring to keep us going through the wet and cold months.

Here’s what My 1st Years has to say: “We love Spring at My 1st Years, the clothes get a little lighter and the sky a little brighter making us all feel a little happier. Spring represents a new beginning and whether that’s beautiful blossoms starting to bloom or a new baby, there is something so exciting about the fresh new start ahead!”

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).

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?

Tell us what you’re most looking forward to below and you will be entered into a prize draw to win a £300 voucher of your choice (from a list). My 1st Years will also be giving 4 MNers their favourite item they selected from their site!

Thanks and good luck!

I love this quilt (link below) its gorgeous and would match our nursery perfectly. Its great for the transition of seasons, providing a little extra warmth and cosiness. Although I think my two would pop it on the floor for a pretend indoor picnic :)
My other favourite is the personalised dressing gowns, so adorable, and already a staple in our house. Although our eldest Ernest has outgrown his. He now have dressing gown envy of his little brothers!

We're off to Disney this Spring so are preparing and getting everything organised and ready, i.e. getting the boys to watch all the Disney movies....but its a surprise trip and the suspense is killing me!!!

We love this www.my1styears.com/personalised-blue-bunny-soft-toy.html I have a two year old obsessed with rabbits!
In spring we look forward to lighter evenings so we get to the beach after school. We have hot chocolate when it’s still cold and picnics when it warms up! The boys love running away from the waves coming in (and usually end up wet!)

What gorgeous items!!! I absolutely adore the personalised pink floral robe because i know my daughter would love it. www.my1styears.com/personalised-pink-floral-robe.html

As she has an unusual name its hard to find named items so all the personalised gifts are amazing on this website!

plans for spring: start getting outdoors more - countryside walks!

I just love this cute wooden toy rocking boat! Very stylish & adorable www.my1styears.com/personalised-ride-on-rocking-boat.html

Two out of my 3 DSes have birthdays in spring so we will have lots of birthday celebrations. We also live not too far from the coast, so we hope to visit the seaside lots, especially once the weather is warmer. Other favourite family outings in the spring are a walk into the bluebell woods & a trip to a dairy farm where we get to help feed some lambs Smile

I love the personalised patchwork quilt.

www.my1styears.com/personalised-large-grey-patchwork-playmat.html

I have bought and received a few items from this company and can say that I thoroughly recommend them! They have great customer service and their products are made to last. Our blankets are beautiful

This spring we are off the Brighton, my baby boy has never been to the beach, also Brighton is where I first worked after graduation so holds many warm memories. I can't wait to show my partner and my son where I started. It was also where my parents first worked after coming to the uk and met, so Brighton is special in every way

We live right on the edge of the woods and I’m looking forward to to the bluebells coming out. We go for walks in the wood and pretend we are looking for the Gruffalo.

This personalised umbrella really stood out for me, as a northerner we get lots of rain and it would be lovely for my niece to have her own special personalised umbrella. It means it's less likely to get claimed by another toddler at nursery too☺️.
Our plans for spring include getting out and about more, going walking on the weekends with our little one and visiting the local animal sanctuary which opens up again for the spring summer season next month. This will be our sons first intro to animals as he's only 7 months old now, can't wait 😊!

Really excited as I'm going to see my family for the first time since summer. We're going as soon as school is out. Weather should be mild and we're looking forward to walks by the riverside.

My favourite is the toy chest.

I love the https://www.my1styears.com/pink-star-toy-chest.html as it would look so pretty in my little girls room and would be great to store all her new birthday toys. As it's her first birthday this spring! We plan to have a birthday party and a trip to the zoo to celebrate Smile

This water bottle is so cute. DD would love it and it would stand out nicely among all the unicorn ones in the water bottle tray at school.

I can't wait for Spring as it means I can take my 1 year old for the first time properly to the park to run around and I know she's just going to love it.

This shelf would look perfect in DS nursery! As for Easter, we are spending as much time as a family before I go back to work from mat leave at the end of April. Walks, days out, hopefully a couple of picnics. Gonna try and cram it all in while DP is off over Easter holidays.

This spring my husband and I are most looking forward to meeting our first child, she's due in late April. We're hoping to take her on an outing to the picturesque park where my husband proposed to me.

There are some lovely items on the site.
I like the storage boxes and this grey star storage bag .
I'm looking forward to longer days, lighter evenings and family walks in the woods with the dog, watching out for signs of spring.

As much as I love the boat, I think it's the guitar I'd buy. Although as we're moving house this spring, hopefully there will be more room for the boat by summer. www.my1styears.com/personalised-grey-wooden-play-guitar.html

I really love the vintage style print on this backpack www.my1styears.com/spaceboy-backpack.html
Dd will be starting nursery soon and we will walk through the park to get home. I am really looking forward to being able to stop and play as the nights get lighter and less cold. The backpack will be ideal for carrying her nursery things and for snacks for the park after.

I adore the little moon light, the matching bookends and moon and star coat hooks! How adorable are they?! What a sweet little set!

We've booked our first 'family' holiday in 8 years for April, by 'family' i mean our core unit; me, my husband and our daughter. I can't wait to just have those few days with my favourite people. We're looking at booking a trip to meet some Llama- my daughter adores them and this will be a real treat for her, we've never done anything like it, ever, so it'll be a new and hopefully amazing experience.

What a lovely range. I love the personalised mini lunch boxes. Very handy for nursery and school, though actually I'd be tempted to get them and use them for their treat boxes at home (they have a box they keep their treats from parties etc, so these would be perfect).
I can't wait for spring: the longer evenings, the flowers starting to erupt, those sunny mornings in the garden. Just some warmth in my bones would be nice.
