Babies first Christmas is such a special occasion, a time to cherish, it can be tough to get it just, right? My answer to this conundrum is ‘really don’t buy a lot’, bar humbug I hear you shrill.
In seriousness and this is coming from the lady who runs a toy shop! What matters at this age is cuddles, they really don’t need much, my advice for tiny ones under 6 months, treat Mummy & Daddy. They probably could do with being made to feel extra special this Christmas! So how about treating them to a lovely hamper, or and afternoon tea delivered home, Cutter & Squidge deliver some of the most wonderful, sweet treats UK wide. Or how about an afternoon of pampering at the or a lovely hamper of treats from the Cowshed to paper at home, or foodie treats from Daylesford Organic you will find something they will truly appreciate at home or to eat, I’m sure!
If, however you feel you really must, a little sensory toy, soother or rattle will do, or buy a keepsake gift something that can be cherished and will last, something truly special for instance this beautiful permanence box, or a classic music box. If you check out our new-born and too cool for school section, we have some beautiful artisan gifts which will fit the bill.
At six months or just before, baby will start sitting and the fun really begins! They can sit and play a little more, so how about a classic toy like our little play cups. Or if you’re going to go large how about something like the scoot and ride a toy that will last for years and grow with baby, Push and pull toys are also perfect, we also love the Moover range, classic toys designed to last, but they are more suited for babies who are 12 months +
Just in case here’s our curation of gifts perfect for your littlest this Christmas.
