This colorful silicone baby toy makes for the perfect portable sensory activity. Pop the dimples in and out over and over again or poke and grab them, . Sometimes the simplest toys always seem to be the best ones!
Dibly is a great teether for babies! The material is soft enough, yet hard enough to relieve little ones sore gums. You can put it in the dishwasher or in boiling water to sterilise. Place it in the fridge or freezer to cool down which can be extra soothing.
This fun toy connects to any flat surface by suction cup. Take it to a restaurant or even on the plane to keep baby entertained. Bonus, you don’t have to worry about it dropping on the floor and getting germs on it!
The cutest activity center you’re going to find! The moment my babies can hold their head up, I pull out our activity center. They love to bounce in it and play with all the toys on it.
A great easy, no fuss toy that requires no batteries, makes no sound and is easy to use. This helps to teach colors, shapes and cause and effect.
5 sides of fun: drive the tractor around, zig zag the beads up and down. Plenty of spinners to spin, spin, spin…
Lots of buttons and sounds to push and explore. The wheels can even lock to slow the baby down and it rolls slowly on carpet. Overtime it will give your little one confidence to take off on their own.
A good classic See-n-say! This toy teaches animal sounds and names along with playing both songs, Old MacDonald and Farmer in the Dell.
This beautifully constructed wooden toy helps to teach shape recognition, creative thinking, sorting skills, problem and solving skills.
This is a popular item in Morgan’s house. It can be ridden like an actual push bike or used as a push toy to help new walkers practice. It's also incredibly lightweight and pretty easy to assemble.
EZPZ Silicone suction plate
These are easy to clean and hard to throw so mealtime stays fun for everyone. Their entire line is amazing
This fun shape sorter has 6 rubbery shapes attached to it's corners so you never have to worry about losing a single shape. Makes for the perfect toy to bring to a restaurant or to travel with.
Lakeshore learning-what’s inside box?
My older kids love to pull out the soft objects from the box and guess what it is. My baby can pull the items out all day. Its a win win for all ages. It is packed with 10 different sensory objects for kids to feel and explore.
This boxset of 10 board books fit just right in little hands and the pictures are realistic. This set covers all the basics to start a toddler off on the right track.
I was hesitant to share this one with you guys because it has been a curse in our house. My 3 year old has been attached to his security blanket since he was 1 and cannot sleep without it! I love that he has something to comfort him but I really hate the nights I spend hours looking for it.
Wubbanub
I am a huge fan of Wubbanubs. They make it hard to lose and stays in place easier.
Ancaixin Baby balance bike
I am slightly obsessed with this adorable balance bike that babies can start using as young as 10 months! With this no-pedal bike, kids can use their feet to reach the ground and move their feet to push the bike to practice balancing. This will make the transition to a pedal bike seemless!
This fun bath toy easily attaches to the bathtub and draws water from the tub without wasting water. It comes with brightly colored bath cups that work with the spout to create different water effects for spraying, straining and floating fun!
These gorgeous modern stacking cups come in a set of 8 with fun holes on the bottom for bath and water play. These colorful stacking toy helps develop both the body and the brain starting around six months. The basic skills learned from stack able cups become the foundation for more complex tasks like using a writing instrument.
This adorable play mat has a crinkle paper tree, squeaker, two teething rings and animal shapes to engage baby's visual senses. It is super soft making it a comfortable exploratory play on the floor.
iplay soft baby rattle set
These 4 soft baby rattles are easy to grasp for little hands and they all have different sounds and textures. When your baby is done playing with them, place the rattles inside the house carrying case!
It’s a bit on the pricier side but you do get way more features and use with this gorgeous wooden play gym. I love that this is taller than most baby gyms to allow for seated play, and the tent feature is amazing. This gym will grow with your child, worth the investment to me!
Battat toy car keys
Perfect stocking stuffer.
VTech my first iphone
Another great stocking stuffer idea. Has just over 11,000 reviews so you know it’s a popular toy for a reason.
Haba shakin eggs
These fun wooden eggs each makes a different sound. Three eggs rattle, one jingles and one twitters.
Hape pound and tap bench with slide out Xylophone
One of our most loved toys. They love to hammer the balls and play music on the xylophone.
The wonderful things you will be book
This is the sweetest book with the most beautiful illustrations. Perfect for a boy or girl.
Baby’s first handprint or footprint
The best keepsake that you will love to pull out each year. No baking or mixing with this set, super simple and easy. I am so glad I did these with my three kids.
You can add extra personalization to the back of these ornaments (Baby’s favorite things etc)
THE softest blanket you will ever have! We have a larger one and we all fight over it. I am going to be grabbing more. In stock Nov 22nd so don’t wait too long to order.
My favorite kid pajamas are from Hanna Andersson. Such great quality and last for so long. They also make for the best hand me downs.
Kids love items that are their own size. You can even personalize it with their name.
Carhartt youth beanie
There is nothing cuter than a baby in a beanie. I am snagging one of these for my baby’s stocking to match with me this winter.
I hope this list gave you some ideas of gifts that your baby will love this holiday season!
