[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who bought every baby she knew a ball popper as the child's first birthday present. She did that because it is something those babies LOVE, but parents hate it because it's loud and they have to chase balls everywhere. But man, the sheer joy that the ball popper gave my children was totally worth it.

There are many other/newer/fancier versions, but this is the OG: https://www.walmart.com/ip/BUSY-BALL-BOPPER/14868217343[/quote]

I want to add that I am the mom of a teen and pre-teen so I'm thinking about things in terms of longevity whereas the current moms of babies and toddlers are thinking about what THEY want and not what the kids will enjoy for the next two years. Buy something for the kids, not the parents!

Some other things my kids loved in that 1-2 range were ride on toys (like this one: https://mybtoys.com/shop/locbloc-hippo-ride-on-with-blocks/), activity boxes (like this one: https://mybtoys.com/shop/zany-zoo/), anything music related (xylophone, baby drum kit, etc.), and the Fisher Price talking teapot (HUGE hit, every baby loves it). These are all things that people with older kids gave my kids and my kids loved to death (and the kids we passed them on to also loved).

Also they're babies, you can buy them something to share, they won't care![/quote]
