As a parent, what types of gifts would you like your 1yr old to receive?

Our neighbor's son is turning one and I'd like to get him something that his parents will be happy about; they are financially well-off so I know he doesn't NEED anything. I have brothers 17 years younger than me so I know that noisy toys are generally not appreciated. I'm also pretty sure he's going to get 900 new outfits to add to his collection. As a parent, what sort of gift would you be happy to receive? Something educational? Fun? Practical? Sentimental? Specific ideas are definitely welcome.As a parent, what types of gifts would you like your 1yr old to receive?
I would say a savings bond is always a good gift - even if you are financially well off . . . it is thoughtful and will come in handy later.





Otherwise, go the sentimental route . . . we received a photo box with our twins names and date of birth on it . . . it was wonderful as we were able to put all of their pictures in it and have something nice on the table at the same time.

Books are wonderful gifts, even if the books are meant for older children. Little kids like being read to even if they don't understand everything that you read.





Building blocks or other toys made of wood are a great present, too, and a nice change from the mountains of plastic stuff that parents get drowned in. Also, there's something wonderfully sentimental about a well made wooden toy that can last to be handed down to the baby's babies.
Gift Card, Gift Card, Gift Card! Lol But if you can't afford much i would have loved to received bath toys. If not bath toys, clothes, or a gift card than a movie if they allow their child to watch tv. My son loves watching Noggin so an educational movie would be the best option. It's ashamed that our cable network will be cutting that channel from the package and a few others tonight }:(
Hi well i was going to say something educational but sentimental would be nice and also how about a Book something suitable for his age, because this mum and dad will enjoy reading it to him and a child can never have to many books.
Do you have any attraction parks in your area that would be suitable for toddlers? Or a zoo? Why not get a gift certificate or tickets to something like that.
Get the kid some educational toys

something like building blocks are great you can never have too many they help baby learn and there quite.
A wagon or the ';Little People'; toys are good for a one-year-old.
