Thinking about what to give a child a year, sometimes not only distant relatives and friends of the birthday man come to a dead end, but also the parents themselves. This is due to the fact that you want to give a really necessary thing, which will be useful to the child in the near future.
Educational toys
At this age, the baby takes the first steps and takes an active interest in the world around him, therefore, a gift for a child a year should be appropriate and stimulating cognitive skills. These can be musical toys powered by batteries, in which, by pressing buttons, various sounds are turned on. Such toys teach the child about cause and effect relationships, and also train fine motor skills. Toy sorters are working on improving the latter, in which it is necessary to place smaller parts in the holes corresponding to them. In this case, the shape of the toys themselves can be different, from a simple square to a whole house or a steam locomotive on wheels. Also, guests can give the birthday boy the simplest sets of constructors, designed specifically for the little ones.
We shouldn't forget about books either. At this age, those with cardboard sheets are preferable. Children especially like music books.
Vehicles
If the cost of the gift is not important, then parents or relatives can purchase a sled, the first bicycle with a handle for riding, which, closer to one and a half years, can become an excellent alternative to a stroller. An interesting gift can be a car on which people move while sitting, pushing off the ground with their feet. And although it will still be difficult for a child to master riding skills in a year, the music module, which such cars have, will certainly make an impression.
Dolls, cars, soft toys
It all depends on the gender of the child, since only soft toys are a universal gift, which, however, are not always recommended for young children because they are soaked in dust. Girls at the age of one are already beginning to be interested in dolls, and boys in cars, but those should be selected in which there will be no small and traumatic parts. For the same reason, you should not buy toys that are too small in size.
If you still want to give a soft toy, then the one that is equipped with a music module inside will be more interesting.
What else could be a gift for a year
You can buy a long-handled gurney toy, a sand play set, a fabric tunnel, or a tent house. If there is a large free area, a plastic slide is suitable as a gift, and these are just a few options that allow you to find a gift with any level of income.
