any ideas what to buy a 8-9 mnth old child for christmas?

Hi Kerri,

What about a big, soft storybook with flaps and buttons and other interactive bits?

Other wise something musical is always fun to grow into - but you have to be careful it's not something that drives you up the wall!

my son Jake will be 9 months at Xmas, and I plan on getting him nothing!
The vast selection of relatives on either side of our families will buy enough for him I feel!

But yeah, I would go with a book, it's something you can enjoy together :o)

Or something like wooden building blocks- they will certainly grow with your little boy!

hi. how about something for when the child grows older. i got my little boy one if these 3 in one cars.where is goes for being strapped in with a parent handle with a safety bar around him that can be removed lateron, to a car the can use them selves as they get older.i have one for my son. its great and his nearly 3 and still uses it. well worth the money. i think monther care do one.
or maybe a shape sorter or some building blooks.

Kate,

Sounds really good. I've got an 18 month old nephew so could be a perfect Xmas present. You said you can find it at Mothercare but you didn't say what its called. Could you let me know pls.

Tks

couldnt find one in mothercare but toys r us do one. very similar. i have this one but with out the large base.
its called a Bubble Go car. ref number 703435 its £80. i didnt pay that much as mine was in the sale. i think i payed about £50.
its great quality, and still looks new after so much use. its they right size to use indoors as well.
