Anyone got any ideas for good 1st birthday presents for baby girls?
I bought her a Wheelybug a few months ago, but she's still too little for it.
Fold out couch
Out door swing
Bike with handle
Special keep sake something
Books
Blocks
Thanks.... I really like the idea of 'special keep sake something' :) .. Any ideas?
For DD's first birthday i am getting her a disney princess toy box and storage thing from toys r us and possibly a fold out couch.
I'm not getting her too much as i know family and friends will spoil her rotten. We are also getting family photos done.
You could get braclet
Crystal ornament (swarkovski have rocking horse, pram etc very cute I have bought for birth gifts before)
Music box (Royal Selangor make some gorgeous ones)
Bookends (Royal Selangor make some gorgeous ones)
Teddy bear with date of birth etc on it
ive got put up for my dd's 1st birthday, a porcelian fairy that hangs from a swing. im not sure on what else to get for her, maybe age specific toys?
Oh that sounds interesting Sarah,where did you get it from?:
DD got a fold out lounge and she absolutely LOVES it!
My parents got her one of the three wheeled plastic trikes (from Big W) and she loves hooning around on that too, very handy when I'm doing the vaccuuming ;)
My DD2 turned 1 a few weeks ago. We bought her;
Fold out couch (Kmart have cute ones that aren't Dora or anything else... DD2's just has a princess & a castle on it)
A push along bike thing... you know the ones that have the flip up storage seat?
A new doll. DD2 loves 'bubbas'
Some wooden puzzles.
LOADS of clothes.
DD2 already has a bracelet and ornamental things, so we just bought her stuff we knew she would enjoy now.
facebook! it was an item on a charity auction page for assistance dogs, i think trezurs to cherish was the donator.
Maree Peddell | Facebook if i can post that? just so you can have a peek.
wow thats wird it poped up with my aunts name.. it seems to go to the right spot tho.
From what she got for her 1st birthday, my DD's favourites have been a rag doll with different clothes to dress her in (I have to do the dressing but she LOVES choosing the clothes and putting dolly to bed), and a little tea set including pots for cooking. HTH
I have the Fisher Price my first dolls house for DD. Very cute!
You can get these braceletets called Alphabracelets. If you google that it will come up, that's a keepsake idea for you and our DD :)
A really good one i found for DD is called a Fisher Price Stroll Along Walker. It is a pram but is made sturdy like a walker so its very hard to tip over. Was great when she was learning to walk and she still uses it now as a pram.
Besides some clothes and toys, we started DD a charm bracelet. So we found a nice gold bracelet, adult sized that can be worn smaller by linking through another loop, and got her first charm to start her off. We plan on adding to it for important birthdays and events and will probably give it to her at her 18th birthday.
We got our DD the same & she still loves it :) We got her the my first doll to go with it & it fits in really well, but now she has other dolls & teddies that get rides in it too.:
I second the FP My first Dolls House and the teaset. Ours are both still played with all the time. They are strong and chunky for little hands but the stories they can create grow with the child.
Do you have the "Build-a-bear" stores over there? I got DD a pink poodle that I built just from me for her first birthday.
Books are always good. I try and get my kids one every year that DH or I write on the inside cover.
:
Some of the keepsakes DD has received
A pewter name plaque for her door
A painted name plaque with butterflies
Bracelet
Brooch
Egg cup and spoon set
Her name scrapbooked in a frame
Pewter money box
My 1st tooth holder
Jewellery box- engraved
Im also looking at getting a friends DD a figurine from the Willow collection, theres a little baby that holds up a balloon....
HTH :)
We did that too!:
I'm probably repeating a lot of stuff but here are some of the faves from DD's first birthday (last month):
- fold out Dora couch (super cute velour one with a built in sleeping bag)
- Fisher Price Little People Farm Set - we bought her this and she LOVES it. Got it on special for $100 from Toys R Us
- dolls pram and doll - loves both now that she's walking well
- wooden musical instruments. She had a few already but loves her new ones
- stacking learning blocks (DD got Maisy ones - very cute!)
- toddler laptop
- bike/walker - we already had the Little Tikes one
These are some of the things that DD got which she really loves:
A little table and chairs set from ikea
Ride on plane from toys r us
Paddling pool and a bag of ball pond balls
Big bag of megablocks
Sun hats
