Hi, my little boy will be 1 soon. I have a few ideas for presents but I'm not a believer in going crazy at this stage as his favourite toys tend to be socks and leaflets! I was just wondering if anyone had any experience of a good toy to buy at this age, that they really grow to love and use as they develop?

A sit-on toy (if you don't already have some)! A Thomas is still played with daily here a year and a half later, present from grandparents. Also got Little Tikes sit in cars, just used indoors so far and still much loved. Agree though I wouldn't go crazy, maybe a small token for now!

This tunnel was very popular (and for at least a year after). It's great cos it's very impressive to small people but folds away totally flat.

Also if you don't have it this pop up toy was a firm favourite at that age and for months.

Both take up a bit of space, but he loves them + they actually look really nice so I don't mind having them out in the sitting room all the time. Small presents for Christmas though I think!

    • uninsured, not to worry just walk away and someone else will deal with it....
    • They’ve backed away from pretending they produce their own goods recently. That claim sat at the centre of the misdirection for years. They’ve now accepted they can’t sustain it, so they’re beginning to highlight the local independent bakeries whose products they actually sell. The business is essentially a courier model running on a slim margin.
    • Another sparrow hawk visor to our cherry tree at the weekend.  Our robin survived, but we may be a sparrow down.     any thoughts on bird feeders & bird baths with the current bird flu?  I try to wash out the bird bath most days when at home, but not on the 3 days in a row that I’m in the office & the bird feeders rather less regularly. Would it be better not to have at all (as my partner thinks)? 
    • OOOPS. My daughter just had to pay a five pound fine. I hadn't put a stamp on it. I remember wondering whether to use a  first or second class stamp,  and clearly when I posted it I still hadn't decided (but sadly didn't notice). I feel really bad for suspecting a postie might have  opened it.  Sorry posties.
