[blparent] present idea

[Veronica Smith]

I was just thinking of Gab  at Christmas, she was 14 months and the only
thing she liked was all the wrappings that came off other presents and of
course the boxes.  The first Christmas, she was 2 months and didn't care for
anything except  breast feeding.

I have read a couple of the other replies, and you have some really good
suggestions in a range of prices.  My number one choice is a Push and Go
car. They are plastic cars that have a push bar on the back for him to have
as a push toy and he can also ride on it and use his feet to move. My boys
loved them and every kid I know has loved them. Very practical and long
lasting. If I remember correctly they were about $20 or $25 when I last
bought one four or so years ago. A good quality giant ball will also be very
popular and have a variety of developmental uses. In fact as I think about
it, the ball is the one I would go with if the child is only going to have
one toy, so I guess it is my number one pick. Either choice will make for a
happy boy.

Hi Parents!

What the heck does momma and da da get their little 10 month old baby for
Christmas? Or, do they bother?

Do we get him something practical like clothes or fun like a toy; and if a
toy, what?

If you need some guidance as to what he is able to do, Erik can:
crawl, walk by pushing large objects in front of him, cruise around on the
edges of furniture, eat solids ...

Thanks for any ideas. seriously lacking inspiration here.

LM
