Honestly? They don't need or want anything at age 1. Open a savings account for the child and deposit $100 for his college education. Repeat as desired over time.

Things that interest a 1 year old and last for years: bin of wooden blocks; barrel of fat beads to string together; set of plastic food. None of these is anywhere near $100.

Does he have any Dr. Seuss books yet? I'd get a collection of them and write in them that they are from you, his aunt. He'll have them forever.

For my nephew's fist birthday last year, I bought several things. Clothes, books, 3-4 Melissa and Doug puzzles, and a little Cars car from Target that was about $40.

This is way under your budget, but just gave it to my daughter for her first birthday and it's been a huge hit:

Really keeps her occupied while I'm trying to get things done in the kitchen, so I love it, too.

I have no idea what to buy him and his birthday is coming up. Is there something that you found useful/helpful or that the kid absolutely went bonkers over? Price isn't an issue but we would prefer to keep it under 100.

Thanks.
