Toys for a one year old?
Posted September 19, 2015 - 11:30am
My third is turning one next weekend and everyone is asking me what he wants. We have EVERYTHING since he is the third. Anyone know of any new, unique, or out of the box toys I could suggest?

Well, if he is your 3rd you probably have most of the basics I would suggest. Ride on toys, trucks, blocks, push lawn mower. Maybe some personalize books that are unique to him being the third. My kids love them, we get many through I See Me! Along those likes they also have other personalized items. I think being the third having something that they can say was clearly for them would be nice. Beyond that it is tough, you would probably need to search Amazon to see what is new and exciting that you don't already have.

I love the personalized idea! I have used I See Me before, but it has been a while.

I always have a hard time with this as well. We've started doing "experiences" so maybe tickets to the zoo or a local children's museum?
Your Kid's Table
Yes, that is a perfect suggestion! I will be using that.

I remember one yr olds as not really being picky. Mine seemed to love everything I got them. I'm sure just something new would be nice. Find out what their friends have.

Oh right, he would love just about anything! I do need to ask some friends, there are always new toys.

I love baby toys! I'm so weird I know. But if you have a kid's boutique, maybe call and see what the best sellers are right now. Those shop owners know what people like. :)

That's not weird! I love most of them too! Just not the loud electronic ones.

I really like asking for books. You can never have enough books to read aloud or board books for them to read/chew on!

So true! We actually got a lot of cute books, and we'll put them to good use.

My one and half year old son loves his tool box toy. He takes a toy hammer and hits walls, doors, etc. and just says "bang-bang". :D

What babies start doing and learning in their first 12 months takes off during the next 12. Through their play experiences and interactions with their parents, they continue to figure out how the world around them works. Toddlers learn how to use objects together. They enjoy playing in the sand and forming connections between two objects.With the help of 12-24 month toys, they learn about sizes and notice similarities between them. Offer them and watch to see what they do. Let them try to understand how they work and what activities they can play with them. Parents can show how to use these toys in new ways. For example, they might put the spoon in the cup and stir, hand it to them and observe their actions. They can also share it with their stuffed toys.Many 12-24 month toys are available in the market that can help the child learn and spot differences. They can also play these in groups and learn communication skills. They will start asking questions and understanding what the opposite person has to say.

This is a difficult question, I try to choose toys from natural materials, but they are more expensive than usual. It's also important for me that the toy was useful and entertained the child. I bought Mozart Cube for my nephew. You can find something cool here https://top-mom.com/best-toys-for-1-year-old/
