65 useful gifts for children under one year old that will delight young parents

From 7 to 11 months, the child is interested in unusual objects and actions with them. For parents, this is a crucial period of introducing complementary foods and realizing that the baby is no longer going to stay in one place.

What do children get as gifts at this stage of development? Here are gift ideas for each month:

• for seven months
  - feeding accessories that create food interest;
• for eight months
  - moving toys that stimulate the baby’s activity;
• for nine months
  - gadgets to protect a baby starting to walk;
• for ten months
  - didactic materials for the development of speech and fine motor skills;
• for eleven months
  - interactive and logical toys.

Before birth

Shortly before the birth, the pleasant chores of preparing to welcome the baby begin.

Reusable diapers. These are special diapers that absorb moisture but remain dry. You can leave your baby to sleep on them and not worry about his skin or your sofa.

Apron towel. Put on your hands and protect mom or dad's clothes from water. When it’s time to get out of the bath, the baby is immediately wrapped in a towel, preventing him from freezing. Very comfortable while swimming.

Muff or mittens for the stroller. In winter, parents will definitely appreciate this accessory: hands get cold in ordinary human gloves!

Cup holder for a stroller with a phone socket. While the child is very small, the mother can carry a glass of hot tea with her. When the baby grows up, it is convenient to put a bottle of milk or water in it.

Clothing for babies

We do not recommend giving it in large quantities: usually there are friends and acquaintances with older children, from whom a rich dowry remains.

But take a closer look at the slips with a zipper - even a grandfather can easily manage them. If you are thinking of giving bodysuits, then only fully unfastened ones. There's nothing worse than pushing a baby's head down a throat!

As far as headwear goes, nothing more comfortable than helmet hats with a button have been invented.

Some babies (and moms) like sleeping bags: a cocoon bag or a cocoon with handles.

Changing chest with open shelf or changing table. For some reason, most chests of drawers consist of closed drawers under an elongated tabletop.

Their inconvenience is that the first drawer with the changing part unfolded cannot be opened. It is naive to believe that a young mother will assemble and clean the tabletop.

Of course, the chest of drawers costs a decent amount - only a loving grandmother would be able to afford such a gift.

A children's chaise longue with or without a rocker helps free up mother's hands. It can be easily moved to any room and is much more compact than a crib or cradle. The child rocks and can look at the toys or at the mother.

We do not recommend purchasing a stroller, crib, baby monitor, slings or baby carriers in advance. It’s not a fact that you will be able to fall into your mother’s ideological views, and leave space for shopping for your parents.

Another non-obvious one. Mothers in the maternity hospital will benefit from thermal breast pads. When chilled (every maternity hospital has a refrigerator in the wards), they will help reduce swelling when milk begins to arrive. If, on the contrary, stimulation of lactation is required, these same pads should be warmed up and applied to the breast.

Educational gifts

What can you give to children? Toys that were inherited from your parents? My brother and sister liked them, so it would suit my daughter or son too! - the older generation grumbles.

In this case, present them with a list of safe and modern gifts for your baby:

1 Busy board - hooks, locks, sockets - everything can be touched.

2 Pyramids with large rings.

Gifts for 1–2 months

In the first months, the baby’s vision and hearing are most actively developing, so bright and sounding toys will be relevant.

A mobile is most often purchased together with a crib. Choose a toy that sounds good to you—you may have to listen to it millions of times in a row.

It is better to choose contrasting colors, but not pastels, but bright ones: yellow, red, green and blue. You should not choose a mobile that resembles fireworks: when there are too many colors and details, it can tire the baby’s nervous system.

Correct installation of the mobile: not above the child’s face, but diagonally, at an angle of 45° from the eyes. Black and white pendants are also good for babies' vision, although adults may find them a little dark.

Some nice rattles. It sounds trivial, but in fact choosing such a rattle is not easy. What is a good rattle?

1. A strong rattle. Just try to break it yourself. If it falls apart in your hands, it will be dangerous for the child.
2. Fits well in the hand. No thin parts to get your fingers stuck in, with a comfortable, firm handle.
3. Colors: bright yellow, bright red. When you get a little older, you can buy green and blue.
4. With a pleasant, but not loud sound, otherwise the baby may get scared.

A similar set with a rattle, hammer and trumpet will last for almost a year. This apple rattle will also withstand any test and will fit comfortably in a child’s hand.

Closer to two months, the baby begins to move more actively - it’s time to introduce him to his own body, because he does not know where his arms and legs are, his movements are still chaotic. Place a sounding bracelet on one child’s hand and do so for several days. Then to another. And then - in turn on each leg. It's very exciting to watch a little person discover his hand for the first time!

At the same age, a child may be interested in a toy suspension for a stroller. Creative mothers love to make them with their own hands from pine cones and leaves - perhaps this is truly the best toy. But if you don’t have the time or desire, choose a pendant according to the same rules as rattles: strong, bright colors, good sound.

And remember: there should be several toys of each type, otherwise it will get boring.

Features of the age of 6 months

The age of six months is already a significant stage in a baby’s life, and, of course, it can be considered the first anniversary. In its own way, this is a turning point for the child, since his baby teeth are already appearing, and the first complementary foods are being introduced. The growth and development of the baby, which is so characteristic, in general, of the first year, continues intensively.

As a rule, at this age the child already knows how to roll over from his tummy to his back and back, sits independently and even has his own high chair. Gradually, the skill of crawling comes, the baby’s mobility increases, which gives him the opportunity to more actively explore the world. At this time, parents need to especially carefully monitor all the actions of their son or daughter - children are very persistent in their research, so often the result of cognitive activity is bruises, bruises and even a broken nose.

The time of rattles has already passed, and although children still love various objects with squeaks and an abundance of interesting sounds, now they can buy balls, pyramids, and prefabricated toys in the form of nesting dolls. At six months they can play on the floor, but if active pastime takes place on an elevated surface, for example, on a sofa, it is better to play it safe by covering the likely places of falling with pillows, because children still have insufficient coordination and weak muscles.

Advice. When purchasing a gift for a child in an online store, do not forget to enter the secret word to receive a discount. See current code words in Labyrinth, My-shop and Ozone stores here

When choosing a gift for a 6-month-old child, you should focus on his skills, and he has already made significant progress in his skills:

• he can use both hands, transfer objects from one to another, clap his hands;
• begins to sit up independently;
• lying on his tummy, he can lean on his hand, grabbing toys with the other hand;
• knows how to find hidden objects, moving on all fours or on the belly;
• knows how to open and close jars, boxes, fold small parts;
• tries to get up holding onto furniture.

Perhaps the most important thing is that six-month-old children can already enthusiastically devote themselves to the game process for 5-10 minutes, without being distracted by extraneous things. In addition, children already pronounce individual syllables and up to forty different sounds.

All this makes it possible to give them sets of cubes, sorters and business boards, which are especially preferable at this age. For physical activity, balls of various sizes, pushers, carts, and stable children's transport are suitable, which help develop the muscles of the legs, arms and back.

Children's interests, starting from six months, become more diverse. And this is not surprising, because from this age they can already distinguish colors well, understand which one is dark and light, hand coordination becomes more developed, and their emotionality increases. In this regard, the child is increasingly attracted to objective activities.

This is a unique stage for him in understanding the world around him, which is necessary in order to:

• study living and inanimate objects and their properties;
• develop attention, memory, thinking and imagination;
• learn independence.

It is by six months that the baby’s perception becomes capable of perceiving the maximum amount of information, so the toys presented should be interesting to him. Psychologists advise choosing multifunctional things as a gift for 6 months that will comprehensively develop the child’s various abilities - play centers, book cubes, educational mats that train, in fact, all types of senses, motor skills and thinking abilities. At the same time, the baby is ready to engage in various types of creativity, so it would be timely, as a present, to give him the first sets for modeling and drawing.

0-3 months

All gifts for the little ones can be divided into those intended for the children themselves, and those designed to make the lives of their parents easier. Things for a baby are:

• rattles;
• toys in the stroller;
• mobiles that hang above the crib;
• a soft toy that makes sounds;
• bath toy thermometer, etc.

What to give a newborn girl for the New Year if she is unlikely to be able to appreciate the gift due to her age? Many people prefer to present something useful, i.e. make a “present” that will make life easier for young parents. In this case, the choice will be richer:

1. Cloth. Baby vests, rompers, panties, socks, booties, hats, etc. All this will definitely be useful to the baby. But you need to look carefully at the size. If the clothes are summer, then it is better to buy them for the age of 8-10 months, because if by the New Year the girl is at most 3 months old, then by the summer she will grow up to her gift. But winter clothes can be taken exactly in size so that you can wear them now.
2. Children's cosmetics and hygiene products. From disposable diapers, cream, powder, soap, etc. you can make an excellent “cake”, i.e. assemble these items into a tiered cake, securing them together with a pretty pink ribbon. Another option is to simply pack all these useful items beautifully into a basket.
3. Gadgets. If a water thermometer can be equated to toys, and this will be considered a New Year's gift for a girl under one year old, then such things as a lamp, a salt lamp, a spoon combined with a food container, a pacifier with a built-in thermometer, a special pillow for feeding, etc. .P. - this is already a present for the parents of the baby.

As for any specific differences between girls' gifts and those that are usually given to boys, at this age they simply do not exist. If you want it to be clear that the present is intended specifically for a girl, then you can pack it accordingly or choose something red, pink, lilac, etc. colors.

What will boys and girls like?

Despite the fact that children at six years old do not yet recognize themselves as male and female, there are some differences when choosing a gift for a boy and a girl:

1. Boys may like a simple but colorful construction set consisting of soft blocks, a children's phone, a top, a set of multi-colored balls, a logic ball, a car, which must be big and beautiful. “For growth” you can give a suction chair, a chair, a walker, a puzzle mat.
2. Girls can be given a music book with glowing pages, a wind-up mobile, elegant little vests and dresses, wind-up bunnies, tigers, bears, a finger theater, soft cubes, a tumbler, and games for early development. Girls at this age are not given dolls, since they begin to play with them only at 11 months, and sometimes later.

Children of both sexes can be given a construction set, an entertainment center, a home swing, finger paints, balls, good books, a music table, a rocking chair or a chair as a gift.

You can also give children original and memorable gifts for six months in the form of a silver spoon, a gold cross, a designer toy, a subscription to children's water aerobics or swimming lessons.

Musical piano

A bright and colorful children's piano will captivate your baby for a long time. The child's attention will be attracted by multi-colored musical keys. Most toys of this type have 2 modes. In the first, when you press the keys, only notes sound, in the second, melodies or songs.

The educational piano develops speech, ear for music, attention, memory, color perception and fine motor skills.

The role of toys in a child's development

Children need toys for harmonious physical, mental and psychological development. They are especially important for young children. The child gets to know the world around him through play.
He learns to distinguish the shape, color, texture of different objects. During the game, it is easier to learn simple truths, distinguish sounds, and expand the boundaries of spatial thinking. Toys help improve hearing, vision, fine motor skills, tactile perception, and imagination.

They also make the child more diligent and attentive. In order for toys to bring exceptional benefits to the baby, you need to choose them according to the child’s age, physical and mental development, and abilities.

Homemade or purchased: which is better?

Many mothers wonder whether it is better to buy their child a ready-made bright toy or try to make one with their own hands. Some parents prefer homemade items for play, considering them safer and more natural. Products from well-known manufacturers that are sold in children's stores have a quality certificate. Therefore, they also do not harm the child.

Advantages of handmade toys:

• the ability to create an object of the required size, shape, color;
• saving money. Products are made from improvised materials. Store-bought, high-quality branded toys are expensive. Not every family can afford such a purchase;
• environmental friendliness, safety. An object is created from natural materials, without the use of harmful paints or varnish;
• simplicity and uncomplicatedness. This gives the child room to develop his imagination.

Disadvantages of homemade toys:

• an item created with your own hands will not be as perfect as a factory product;
• expenditure of time and effort;
• to make them you need to have sewing skills, creativity, and imagination;
• they are not high-tech, low-functional, unlike mass factory-produced products.

Advantages of store-bought toys:

• variability;
• accuracy of execution;
• a wide range of;
• saving time and effort (all you need to do is go to the store and choose the product you like);
• functionality.

Disadvantages of factory products:

• lack of individuality;
• unnaturalness (they are made from non-ecological materials: plastic, rubber);
• high price.

It’s hard to say which is better, store-bought or homemade toys. If you have a shortage of free time, you should give preference to store-bought products. If you are on a limited budget, it is better to think about making an original play item for your little one with your own hands.

It is advisable that the child has purchased toys and handicrafts.

Rules for choosing gifts for a child under one year old

When adults buy this or that thing for a small child, they should know which toys are best not to give to babies:

• those made of synthetic materials, in particular polyvinyl chloride;
• toys with sounds that are too loud, sharp and long (spare your parents’ ears!);
• things that are inappropriate for a child’s age - they either will not interest him or will be incomprehensible to him;
• flying toys that can cause injury;
• objects with small elements that will definitely end up in the child’s mouth and it’s good if he doesn’t swallow them;
• soft toys that absorb huge amounts of dust and can cause allergies in children;
• items made of rubber with a repulsive odor; most likely, they are made from artificial, low-quality rubber and may contain cadmium, chromium and other harmful components;
• playing with magnetic parts - if accidentally swallowed, the consequences can be sad, the same applies to toys with small batteries.

Not always understanding what to give for a child’s birthday, guests, and, indeed, parents, can be advised to be guided by the peculiarities of the child’s development at the present time, making a completely acceptable adjustment for the future, when a high-quality and necessary thing will definitely come in handy and will be used for its intended purpose.

True, adults who can get carried away by the process of choosing a gift and fall into childhood should not forget that they need to take into account the hobbies of the little hero of the occasion - after all, the gift is bought specifically for him.

Baby refuses to play: should parents worry?

There are times when a child is not interested in the toy offered to him.
This usually causes anxiety among parents. It is not easy for mom and dad to understand the reason why the baby scatters objects for play. It is important to understand why the baby behaves this way, which interferes with the formation of the game process. Common reasons why a nine-month-old baby refuses toys and ways to solve this problem are given in the table below.

Cause	What to do
I don't like the toy	Replace it with another, more attractive item for the game.
The baby feels unwell, is sick, and experiences discomfort.	You should not force your child to play. You need to see a pediatrician and undergo treatment.
The child is tired of the toy	Offer a new product
The baby was given too many toys, his attention is scattered	Remove most items. Leave 2-3 items.
The baby does not know what to do with the object offered to him	Parents should be shown what to do with the toy. Get involved in the process.

Age changes from six months to a year

After six months, the child’s cognitive activity continues to actively increase. At this time, up to a year, some of the toys will remain useful and interesting for him, but the arsenal will need to be updated and supplemented with other things, as children learn more and more new skills.

A child under one year old changes almost every day, and it will be useful for adults to know what changes come into force every month after the first six months of life:

1. Seven-month-old babies are more mobile; they already crawl confidently and stand up with the help of an adult or support. Kids say “pa-pa”, “ma-ma”, “ba-ba” and begin to understand the meaning of the words and intonations addressed to them. They develop long-term memory, listening to music becomes more conscious, as does the attention they can pay to one subject for a long time. The 7 month gift is actually not much different from what parents give at the 6 month date.
2. At 8 months, the baby's hands gain strength and dexterity, and this allows him to grasp objects with two fingers. Children of this age recognize themselves in the mirror and in photographs; they can take off their socks, crawl while holding a toy in one hand, roll balls, and string rings onto a pyramid. Their perception of different sounds is sharpened, now they can see objects not only at different distances, but also from different angles, they can clearly distinguish their shape and texture. Children can already react quite emotionally to all sorts of events, including those related to their victories and defeats in games. At eight months, it is useful for children to read a lot, in addition, they like objects with an abundance of buttons and small parts that can be packaged in jars and containers. A rubber ball that the baby will kick with his feet will help him strengthen his muscles. Based on this, relatives can choose a relevant and interesting gift for 8 months.
3. At the age of nine months , children confidently squat and stand, some of them can already walk with the help of support, slowly alternating or placing their legs, and dance holding the hands of dad and mom. They happily flip through the pages of large children's books, look at pictures, are able to play with three objects at once, distinguish body parts in dolls, and express emotions such as joy, resentment and anger. As a gift for 9 months, they need toys of different materials, sizes and shapes; inserts and pyramids are most suitable for the development of motor skills. It is also important to pay attention to games that involve physical improvement - these are cars, balls, all kinds of gurneys.
4. Ten-month-old babies stand confidently, get on all fours, actively learn to walk, climb onto a sofa, armchair and learn to get off them. Babies eat themselves, drink from a sippy cup and cup, use a spoon, and chew small pieces when eating. They are interested in building houses and towers out of cubes; for sure, such a gift for 10 months, like the first soft construction set with large parts, will be a real surprise for the baby. You can also focus on physical development and buy a large ball or fitball as a gift.
5. Eleven months is a wonderful period, because the baby begins to walk independently, and he does this while holding his mother’s hands. To pick up the desired toy, he can sit down or bend down, and skillfully manipulates objects. Children imitate their parents in everything, conveying the peculiarities of their movements and even the intonation of their voices. For children of this age, it is useful to sculpt, draw, walk with a gurney, a ball, put together simple structures and simple puzzles. All these baby skills give adults the opportunity to choose a suitable item as a gift for 11 months.
6. The baby becomes more and more independent at the age of one ; he moves a lot, is extremely active, tries to walk and climb stairs on his own, although he still needs his mother’s help. The child has learned to squat, has studied the properties of many household items and knows how to use them. His speech vocabulary consists of more than 15 words consisting of two syllables. Children are beginning to give more and more preference to story-based games. One-year-old children can already purchase more complex toys or games that they can play with adults; such cooperation is very important for children - thus, they strengthen the psychological connection with their parents, and at the same time, learn new actions. When choosing a gift for 1 year, do not forget that the child already remembers and is well versed in different types of toys, and he has his own preferences. One kid may be delighted with a maze zoo, while another will prefer a trampoline playpen or a summer bicycle with a handle.

Focusing on these developmental features, habits and hobbies of children, determined by physiological, mental and emotional growth, parents and guests will be aware of what to give for their child’s birthday. They can easily choose a “growing up” gift for a 6-year-old child or purchase a gift in advance for the celebration of the baby’s first birthday.

Gifts for a 6 month old baby

Gifts intended for children from one to six months are rather gifts for infants, so up to six months they are identical in content. The main purpose of the donated items is to promote the development of the baby’s basic senses - hearing, vision, smell and touch. In their first months, babies can only look at objects, perceive a soft melodic sound, tactilely feel the texture of a toy, thus exploring objects in the real world.

Therefore, from birth to six months , they give mainly:

• rattles of different shapes, colors and textures;
• rotating carousels suspended from the playpen and crib and equipped with sound and light effects;
• air balloons;
• developmental mats with a horizontal bar and pendants, so that a lying baby can reach out with his hands to rustling and shiny parts, rattles and rattles.

Closer to 5 months, you can choose rubber toys and balls, soft cubes and pyramids, wind-up and musical toys in the form of animals, plastic or rubber books with colorful pictures as gifts.

Of course, the development of six-year-old children differs from the development of younger infants; first of all, they already know how to sit, hold toys, and imitate the actions of their parents. Therefore, they also need special toys aimed at further improving various skills.

At 6 months old, different types of gifts are suitable for a child:

1. Intellectual, educational toys for children from six months of age consist of various games that make them think and perform different tasks:

• educational mats and play centers;

• sorter panels that develop memory, fine motor skills, and spatial orientation;
• Busyboards are special boards with many diverse details in the form of balls, rings, geometric shapes, small volumetric and flat objects of different shapes and textures.

1. To develop an ear for music and a sense of rhythm, you can give your baby:

• musical instruments - maracas, xylophone, trumpet, drum, children's piano;
• music table with removable panel;
• Mothercare musical ball with animal buttons;
• musical rug;
• a singing and talking toy book in 3D format;
• double-sided development center with light and music accompaniment;
• children's music phone that speaks in the voice of dad or mom.

In fact, there are quite a lot of such options for children's toys - these are musical pyramids, turntables, interactive animals, figures on wheels.

1. A gift for a six-month-old child can also have a sporting purpose:

• children's grinding machines;
• wheelchairs are a kind of simulators that force the baby to move and develop his legs, leaning on the handles of the device;
• durable walking machines - interactive toys with a convenient design;
• rocking chairs in the form of donkeys, tigers and elephants;

• transformable chairs, which, if desired, can be turned into a rocking chair;
• rubber and massage balls, fitball.

If at such an early age the baby already shows a desire for painting and other types of creativity, then at six months you can give him:

• large sheets of whatman paper and special finger paints;
• a set of plasticine that does not get dirty or modeling dough;
• To develop creative abilities, sets of large puzzles, books with stickers, and water coloring books are also suitable.

In addition, cardboard or plastic books with a small number of pages, large pictures and large font, CDs with cartoons and music suitable for this age, bathing sets, a special sandbox for your area with scoops, molds, plastic buckets.

The best practical gifts are clothes for growing up, including slips, tracksuits, elegant dresses, booties, T-shirts, as well as a set of dishes for a child, children's furniture (chair, sofa), bed linen, household appliances for quickly preparing complementary foods for the baby.
