    Just wondering what do people buy their kids for her first birthday?

    She has toys coming out her ar*e since santa, her aunts have gone together to get her a swing, I don't want to get her clothes.

    We are going to glendeer pet farm on the day of her birthday, just me her and daddy. And having family afternoon tea and cake the next day.

    I just dunno what we (mum and dad) should get...

    Any ideas?

    How about a little slide to go with the swing. My lo wil be 1 in april and were getting her a swing also as she has loads of indoor toys. She got one of does trikes for xmas and loves it.. my mum is getting her one of does shell sandpit/paddling pools (if we even get the weather) so she has toys for outside .

    Hi,

    Santa brought this to my daughter,

    http://www.toys.ie/Little-Tikes-Activity-Garden-!123886-prd.aspx?qwSessionID=9e7e897d-f01a-44cb-af14-3a3e748cdb04

    (when Santa was buying it, it was reduced to €65 and he also had a €10 off voucher)

    She's 9 months now and loves it, she is crawling in and out of it, using it to pull herself up to standing.

    Her brother is 3 and he plays with it as well.

    For her brothers first birthdays, they got ride on tractors.

    Living in mayo so zoo is too far. I like the swimming tho :)

    I was thinking of some keepsake, but then oh made me see sense that no one either of us know has anything from our first birthday :)

    Someone I know got each of her girls a charm bracelet when they were born & every year she buys them a new charm. I love the idea & even though my little one is 17 months, am planning on buying 1 for her with 2 charms to start off & then adding to it every year. Give it them on their 18th!

    One of the Little Tikes Play Houses ! although ours are grown up now, they had years and years of fun with it - I still see it on a regular basis as it was that sturdy that we gave it to the Local Playschool when the kids where finished with it, although its faded, it certainly stood the test of time !

    I didn't actually buy her anything... :o

    We had a party, and Christmas was only a few weeks beforehand, so she was spoiled between toys, clothes and attention.

    If she has so much stuff that you are struggling to think of something to buy her I would say she doesn't need anything else.
    Maybe instead set up a bank account for her & deposit some money in it for her for when she's older, maybe set up the tradition of adding to it on every birthday.
