There's no reason to dread 1 year old birthday parties. Ideas for baby gifts are plenty these days. Whether you have a big or small budget, you'll be able to find something for the baby in your life. In fact, babies aren't particular at all and you may find that she'll happily play with the box the present comes in more than the present itself.
Check out these great baby gifts:
Classic toys. Think about the toys that you enjoyed playing with as a child. Many of these toys are still around and make great gifts for a 1 year old. For example, you could buy a set of wooden blocks, a little red wagon or a sand pail and shovel.
Soft toys. A lot of babies love stuffed animals and these are relatively cheap to come by. If you don't know baby's favorite animal, you could purchase your own favorite. You're also more likely these days to find exotic stuffed animals, such as flying squirrels or ugly monsters.
Educational toys. At this age, babies are learning about action and reaction, so look for toys that do things. For example, a toy that makes noises when baby pushes the buttons can delight him for hours.
Videos. While it's true that most doctors don't recommend letting babies watch TV, let's be realistic. You don't want to sit your baby in front of the TV all day, but a little bit here and there so that mom can fix dinner is fine. Look for popular shows like Sesame Street or try a DVD that teaches baby a foreign language.
Music CDs. As they turn one year old, many babies start to become fascinated with music and songs. Music can teach important concepts like the ABCs, counting, colors, body parts, and many other things. Look for CDs that have songs with popular dances or finger plays to go along with them.
You don't have to spend too much time planning what type of present you're going to buy for a baby. She'll be able to have fun with just about anything that you want to buy.
