Are you shopping for a 1 year old this Christmas? The great thing about tiny kids is that their presents don’t have to cost a lot – even if you aren’t crafty and don’t want to make your own gifts. Here are some of my little girl’s favorite things to play with – and they are all around $5 or under!
My sister-in-law gave Lily
Tennis Balls
a while back, and she plays with them every day. EVERY SINGLE DAY. She loves playing ball. We practice throwing, rolling, bouncing, and catching. Also, she loves to take them in/out of the canister over and over. Tennis balls are my #1 recommended gift for a 1 year old. These things are a huge hit with all of her little friends.
I got these
Rainbow Slinkys
from the birthday party isle at Walmart a little while back. Another huge hit with Lily and all of her friends. A 4 pack of these things were just a couple of dollars. It keeps her quiet during church, entertained in the car, and content at home too. These things are pretty durable too – she is rough on them and I have yet to have them kink or tangle to the point I couldn’t repair it easily.
, and you can get them for just a dollar or two almost anywhere. I have to be careful with these though and make sure I watch her so she doesn’t stick them to any furniture I don’t want sticker residue on. I give her a notebook or old coloring book and let her go! It keeps her entertained for a long time. She also likes to wear them on her shirts occasionally.
Lily loves dressing up, and she loves animals.
These masks
are a great gift for only a few dollars!
Lily colors every day. She loves crayons and coloring books…and they only cost a dollar or two.
I know what you’re thinking…these don’t look like the most exciting gifts. The point is that any 1 year old would love this stuff, and get a lot of use out of it! Why break the bank when you don’t have to?
What are some things your toddler loves to play with that doesn’t cost a lot?
