Best Gifts for 1 Year Olds - Teething Toys & Play Toys
Ah 1 year olds! Such a sweet stage. They're not a baby anymore, and they're not quite a toddler. Let's call them tabbys (toddler/babies).
I have a 14 month old myself, so she's my best source of data! (See picture below of the sweetest, spit-fire, mullet-rocking tabby around)
Driving Toys
Beep! Beep! A top favorite for my kids! It's something about the wheels that they love.
Wooden Cars - Waldorf Inspired Wood Cars
The yellow bus is great for 1 year olds because of the handle! And the teal truck is always a fast favorite with toddlers.
My daughter loves to put the peg people in and out of the convertibles, but the peg people in the convertible measure under 3 inches, so they are a choking hazard!
Wheelie Animals
I mean what more could kids want? It's an animal. On wheels.
Get the set of 5 for $30 (at $6 each, that's quite the deal!)
Or for only $20 buy your baby the whole animal gift set that includes a wheelie animal, a rattle, and a teether!
Bear, Kitty, Lion, Seal, Bunny
Shake Rattle & Roll Toys
Peg Friends
My girl's favorite!
These are my girl's favorite types of toys. Toys she can pick up and hit on the table or ground. She delights herself with the sounds she makes.
Her favorite activities with them include: grabbing as many as she can, putting them in a backpack, smacking them loudly on a table, and (obvi) throwing them.
They come in rainbow, pastel, or natural (unpainted but finished with a clear shiny child-safe top coat)
Silicone Shapes
These shapes are another way your baby can explore with toys that are 100% safe to chew!
Rainbow Hand Kite
Colorful ribbons on a smooth bamboo ring. Babies love the bright colors and love to grasp and shake them around!
Teething Toys & Rattles
At this age they're still teething AND getting *all* the molars. Sigh. Teething is hard. Molar teething is a seemingly never-ending sleepless journey. It takes forever and it's painful for our tiny humans.
Here are a few of my favorite teethers. Pro-tip: Put them in the freezer for extra relief.
Bunny Teether
Rattle Teethers
Most of our favorite teethers, double as rattles. Babies love the sound the wood makes as it hits together. And they are oh-so pretty.
Silicone Rattles
Silicone rattles are a great option for kids that are teething because you put them in the freezer and they get really cold for added soothing. Plus, babies like to rattle the silicone rings together.
They also come in pearl for that fancy baby in your life!
Silicone Teethers
Now, for the super fun teether. I mean look at all these cute animals and shapes!
Several of them can be ordered with a matching pacifier clip!
