A. For my little cousin's 1st birthday, I bought her a toddler pool and a bathing-suit to go with it. Actually something usable (not just another toy) and ended up being Multi purpose. The Mom ended up blowing it up and putting it in her playroom she LOVED crawling in and out of it and playing with her babies in it. : )

What should I get my niece for Christmas?

Q. My niece is 1 years old and I need gift ideas. I was thinking of getting her a toy truck but I want to know what you think. What are some good gift ideas I can get for my niece?

A. Typically at this age, kids are inquisitive and love to learn, so an educational toy might be a better choice. They also love bright colors - large, big colorful blocks work well for small hands. Plus, you do not want to get her a toy with small parts that may present a choking hazard.

I would suggest heading over to http://www.toptoyschristmas.net/go/infant-toys to get an idea of appropriate gifts for 1 year olds. If anything, at least it will give you some ideas.

What are some gift ideas for a 1 year old?

Q. I have started Christmas shopping a little earlier than I normally do and I have a 1 year old neice. Any ideas? I was already thinking of getting her a cute winter outfit but I need something else to go with it. Thanks!!

A. Books are always a good idea for little ones. There are board books that have carbdoard pages rather than paper so that a 1 year old cannot rip them but still gets the experience of flipping pages and "reading."

What to get a ten year old boy for Christmas?

Q. I'm looking for gift ideas for my ten year old nephew. He is mostly interested in video games, but I'd rather not get him another game. He doesn't like sports, but he seems to have some interest in science. He also really likes technology, such as cell phones, computers, etc.

Every year, when I ask his parents what to get him, they tell me the name of a specific video game or request a gift card for a video game. I'd really like to find something a little more original, that would still be fun. Any ideas?

A. amazon has some really cool basic robotics kits for his age group. I was just looking at them and you can get some nifty sets for under $50 and free amazon shipping.

What can a 2 year old make (or help make) as a gift for family (grandparents, aunts,uncles, etc)?

Q. I'm trying to think of gift ideas for my 2 year old to make or help make for her grandparents and aunts and uncles. I don't want anything like coloring a picture or anything like that (we've done that so many times already!) I'm looking for unique and creative ideas, preferably ones that are fairly inexpensive. Thanks in advance! :)

A. I'm planning on making snow globes with my kids and they are 2 and 3 1/2 years old.
Materials
Glass Baby Food Jar & Lid
Glitter
Baby Oil
Small Figurines (about 1-1.5 inches tall)
Glue
The instructions are on this website (along with other craft ideas)
http://www.babybumpdiaries.com/how-to/easy-toddlers-christmas-crafts/


Another idea I found and want to try are fruit loop sand decoration vase:
-You take a box of fruit loops and separate the colors and then put each colors in a bag and crush them into sand
-then get a nice looking vase or glass container with a lid, and pour the different color of fruit loop sand in.

Pine cone decoration (also on the website I listed above)
-put glue all over pine cone then sparkles!
-tie ribbon or string to top

hot chocolate ice cream cones (I saw this on Oprah a few years ago)
-take one of those triangle shaped cake decorating bags and put hot chocolate powder in to look like the cone part, then mini marshmallows for the ice cream part and chocolate chips for sprinkles, tie the top up with ribbon

hope that helps!! Good luck!!!

I need Christmas gift ideas for a one year old?

Q. My son will be close to a year old on Christmas. I would like some good age appropriate gift ideas.

A. Hi, I have three children a daughter who is 6, and two sons ages 2 and 4. I can tell you from experience toy shopping for kids can be hard there is so much to choose from. These are the things my kids have played with over and over and things I give as gifts to my family and friends with kids.

Playskool Busy Ball Popper- my six year old got this for her 1st birthday and it is still in our toy room and played with by all kids almost everyday.

Fisher Price Little People Zoo Train- My six year old also got this as a gift for her first birthday andit too is still in great shape an played with by all.

Fisher Price Barnyard Pop Onz- My 4 year old got these for his first chritmas when he was 6 months old, all of the kids love them, they stick together really well, and can comfigure really cool things, they even use the pieces creatively as other toys, ie: a few of the blocks look like binoculars so they pretend they are on a safari with them or pretend they area camara.

Fisher Price Laugh & Learn Chair and Puppy- These are adorable, interactive and teach kids songs, letters and color and they are really fun too.

Fisher Price GeoTrax- although your son might be a litle young this year make sure you get these for next christmas my boys love them, every kid that comes to play loves them.

Fisher Price Tuff & Rumble Dump Truck and Fire Truck- both are very durable and really cute, No bells or whistles and kids use their imagination to play with them.

LeapFrog Fridge DJ- really awesome toy keeps baby and toddlers busy while you are cooking dinner, great to take in the car too.My 4 year old still plays with it.

Leap Frog Learning Town Car Wash- if you can find it I got this for my 2 year old for his first christmas when he was 6 months old and he loved it, he played with this thing everyday and still has it in his room.

Parents Bee Bop Band Set- We have had two of these my daughter had one when she was 1 and as she got older she used it as a step stool so last christmas I got a new one for our then 18 month old. The baby I baby sit is one and she love this also.

Anyway I hope these help cgood luck shopping !

Original Question

What is a good gift idea for a 1 year old that is not a toy?

Q. It is my nephews 1st birthday and my sis does not want any more toys for him cause he already has too many that he doesn't even play with. Any creative gifting ideas?

A. I can understand that, but he will probably play with them later as his attention span is longer.

Perhaps a board book, or a name sign for his bedroom door. Maybe he needs a shelf or two in his room, or a toy hanger or chest. You could even think about starting a bank account for him, it doesn't have to be a lot, and have yourself as trustee, maybe along with your sister, so that you can deposit easily for future birthdays and Christmases. Just $10 a time would be quite a sum when he grows up and is looking to get his first car or pay for education, etc.

One thing I have done for my grandson is collect new coins and stamps each year on his birthday, all of which I will give him on his 21st. It's not for the monetary value, rather for the interest and historical value and the desire to have something unique from his grandparents.His parents know nothing of this, but just in case, his Uncle does.
