My son turns one in a few weeks and we'd like to get him some books/toys which he will enjoy but that will also help with his development... We don't want to go too mad price-wise, so I'd appreciate any thoughts on toys which your little one enjoyed but which didn't break the bank. Thanks!

We've just passed that milestone and I'd second most of the suggestions above. A bag of megablocks (cheap version of Lego/duplo) has been a huge hit - although she's not really building anything yet, she can spend hours taking the blocks out of the bag and then putting them back in. She's also beginning to get into shape sorters and jigsaws.
Would second the wooden blocks with trolley. M 2.5 year old still plays with it sometimes. Another hit was one of those wheely bugs. I was dubious but E used it loads, initially pushing it along and then riding on it, again still does now. Other than than that Galt pop up toy, puzzles, books were well received.

    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead?
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?
