    First Birthday Present Flip Out Sofa or Fairy Costume ???

    What do you think would be best for a girl for her first birthday?

    A flip out sofa (she doesn't have one)

    OR

    A fairy princess costume?

    OR if you have any other ideas for a 1st birthday pressie that would be great. I have left this to the last minute because I just don't know what to get and only have a few days to get something.

    I think both of those are great. I'd probably go the sofa. They are so useful!

    Grandson has the sofa and has used it heaps, so that's my vote...

    I'd go the sofa. My DD used to sit on it and play, then she started to 'own' it when she was tired and have a nap on it.

    My DD really wasn't into dressing up at that age. It was more for my benefit, LOL.

    I'd get the sofa, we got one for Pie's first birthday & she loves it, won't let any of the bigger kids on it lol.

    Agree with Doing my Best, I don't think a costume has the same appeal at that age.

    We just bought our DD the ikea mini table and chairs for her first birthday... she loves it so much more than i thought she would. She's happy to just sit on the chair, and let that be an activity in itself! So I'd go the sofa out of those choices too

    The other thing we bought which was a huge hit was a ride on plane, it's got a handle on the back so she can push it along or we can push her along and when she's a bit bigger she'll be able to do it with her feet too, she love love loves it!

    I was going to get the sofa from Toys r us so I'll have a look tomorrow and see if I can find the plane. I also looked at the pools with balls.
    How did you get on at Toys r Us?

    I got the sofa Thanks everyone for all your help. I couldn't find the plane though. I'm going to go back tomorrow to have a better look when I don't have the kids. Will let you know if I find it. I think I will ask at the counter because it sounds interesting.
