[blparent] [Bulk] present idea

[Chad Allen]

I agree with waiting for the toddler table. My son is almost 18 months and
we are getting it for him this year but at ten months, he would have had no
use for it.

I'd wait on the toddler table and chairs. Unless you have other kids around
or your kid likes being by himself your child won't use these. Mine would
have hated them because she knew we didn't use them so even if we'd be in
the same room, she'd view a toddler table and chairs as being "away" from
us. This means that you have something that takes up space that nobody in
the house can use.
If you do want a table of some kind, get a train table as even if your child
won't use it, it will give you a place to get all their crap off the floor.
Get one with storage space too.

Parents do all kinds of things, but some ideas may be a push to ride on toy,
large ball, first trucks, infant instruments, first fork and spoons,
children's music, new clothes, Toddler table and chair, activity table,
books for you to read to him like from NBP and Seedlings. You will want the
memories so I'd encourage you to get a few things.

2 of my favorite sites for infant and toddler products are
www.lakeshorelearning.com and my Discovery Toys page at
www.playtoachieve.com

Hope that helps some.
