What to give baby for Christmas. If your reading this then I assume just like me you’re thinking the same. Choosing a Christmas gift for a baby can be difficult if you allow it to be. Picking games and toys for infants and toddlers is a lot easier than you think. All you need to do is sit down with a pen and paper, get yourself feeling in the festive spirit and hey presto your on you way to choosing the ideal present for your baby, or someone else’s baby this Xmas.

If you are looking for a babies first Christmas, then try not to go overboard and spend to much as people would agree that a baby doesn’t even realise what’s going on especially a Newborn and would rather play with a box or hear the sounds of rustling wrapping paper. Here are some suggestions to consider

Vests, Babygrows, bibs, nappies etc. A personalised gift A keepsake teething ring Cot mobiles Play mats Cuddly toy

As a baby reaches toddler age that’s when you have a lot more choice for things to buy at Christmas time, children of this age are at the beginning of their learning stages, they are starting to understand a lot. Some gifts for toddlers could include;

Clothing Activity toys with lots of things to push and pull Books Shoes (always ask parent for child’s shoe size) Musical toys Toys relating to a character on television programme Learning toys which teach numbers and alphabet Wooden jigsaws

Then the exciting part when a child reaches preschool age and is up to allsorts and very cheeky and mischievous some gift ideas listed below

Colouring books and pencils Doll and pram Cars Musical instruments Pop up books Puzzles Games

As a child reaches the age of 3 to 6 at this age a child likes to play outside from time to time and at this time of year its freezing cold and wet and will soon be snowing so maybe try and buy such things as

Hat, gloves and scarf set A winter coat A pair of Wellington boots Cycle helmet and knee pads Colouring books and pencils Arts and crafts (for days inside)

Then as children get older that’s when the bigger presents are expected from their parents so maybe just a few pounds in a card will suffice then they can put the money towards something they are saving for or you could try these

if your not sure what to buy just in case you buy something they already have you could always ask their parents if buying for somebody else’s child or you could always ask the child for a few suggestions as to what they would like for Christmas and then just take your pick at which you are going to get them.

I am sure no matter what you buy yours or somebody else’s child for Christmas they will be happy with no matter what age they are, always remember you can only buy what you can afford try not to get into debt for Xmas and have to spend the rest of the new year paying debts off it really is not worth the hassle. Buy what you can afford and then with the money you will have saved, by not going mad on presents you can have a lovely day out with when the warmer weather comes our way.
