Baby Steven's Christmas Wish List

A lot of people have been asking for ideas for baby Steven for Christmas so I thought I would post a wish list on here. Here are some things that other kids his age have enjoyed and that will take us through till his birthday in May. I am working on turning at least part of the basement into a play room for him when he gets more mobile so having some toys that can stay down there would be great for that.

I've seen these cube things with different toys on either side like this one around a lot and I think it would be good for Steven. They can get pretty pricey so we are not opposed to a used one.


As an alternative to that, he was really into the bead mazes they have had in a couple waiting rooms so I think something like this would be good for him. He is also really into those pop up toys like this one. We don't have one of those yet, so that would be a good gift too.


He's pretty into this light up ball we got. Its a cheap version we got used so a better one may be nice for him to have. One like this one.
A shapesorter thing would be good for him at this age. Something like this or this or this He's also into stacking cups we have so this might be fun.




He really likes toys that he can push and pull around so some trucks would be great too. They don't have to make noise or anything, just basic boy trucks like this or this.

 
He is also really into balls so any balls to play with would be great like these. We have one little one and he loves pushing it around. As he gets older I think he will like bigger ones as well. Also, along those lines I saw an idea to turn your pack n play into a ball pit. I think that would be great when he's a little older so a set of balls like this one would be great to have.
He is going to start working on standing up soon so toys that encourage that will be helpful. This activity table toy is really neat, or this one.


Sometime in the future we will want to work with some educational, interactive books. This might be a good one to start and he can grow into it. Of course we always need more good, old fashioned books to read to him. He's pretty into board books right now and we have all of my old Dr. Seuss books, which he likes too. So any books we would love to have as well.

We are definitely going to need some kind of blocks set in the next year so one like this or this would be good to have.



There are some toys that people I know with babies have recommended to us as well. They are here, here, here, or here.

We could use some lullaby cds like this one or this one

Well, hope that helps! We are so excited to celebrate Steven's first Christmas with our family. Love you guys!
