RainySunday Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I have a 6.5 yr old girl, and 4 yr old boy, and baby girl is turning 1 this week. I am drawing a complete blank on what to get her! For the other two, we got them their first custom waldorf doll at 1, but Baby got hers at Christmas, since she already liked the olders' dolls. Clothes are an option, but I'd like to get her a little something else too. We try to stick to stuff that will last, quality, etc. We have several Melissa and Doug things, we have lots of little people, lots of stackers, blocks, we have a ridiculous number of board books, etc. You know, we are a typical family of multiple kids with both genders, and we've saved the stuff we like for the youngest. What are some of your favorite things for one year olds? Amazon is great, we are also local to toysrus, and target. We do have some small local toy shops as well.

Pippen Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 The shopping cart was one of my daughter's favorites at that age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainySunday Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 The shopping cart was one of my daughter's favorites at that age. Thanks. We have one, lol. She hasn't used it yet...I'm not sure she's tall enough. Good idea though, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busymama7 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Yes. Shopping cart or baby stroller. My favorite baby toy is the ball popper. But it makes noise and is plastic LOL! It is still very very fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly1730 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 My favorite for baby girls is the purse that has plastic lipstick, keys, cell phone etc. I think it's made by Playschool (not sure) and I know it's not really a "quality" toy but babies that age love to take things out and put them back into something and, of course, every little one loves Mommy's purse:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentlemommy Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 A ride on toy? A kiddie pool? Sand toys? Bubble machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandylubug Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I love the plush play foods. When they throw them across the room, they make no sound. I'm drawing a blank where I saw them recently. I know IKEA has their own version but I am certain I saw them elsewhere as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandylubug Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 http://www.thebigzoo.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=33571 I've never heard of this site but that price is great. I'd be suspicious of the grapes but others look safe. Eta: they are scented?! Idk about these the more I look and then I wonder, are they animal chew toys? I had googled plush fruit toy. Research may be required ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Magnatiles are great to have if you don't have them already. They aren't exactly 1yo toys, but she can play with them, and the older kids can build with her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RainySunday Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Thanks for all of your suggestions! We are going to go with...clothes. Lame, but really, we are in a de-cluttering phase, and we have so much already...Her favorite things to do are empty the kid dishes drawer, and empty the kitchen towels cabinet. Those keep her busy much of the day, haha. I do plant to make some peg dolls for all the kids, and I will be making some of the biggest size for her. They won't be done in time for her birthday, but she has no idea what a birthday is. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
