Majorly bummed. DS2's "big gift" isn't coming now.

I ordered him the Parents Busy Activity Block during the AOL/Target sale last week.  Apparently the card I had on file was expired and they cancelled my order yesterday and released the items without giving me a chance to update my billing info.  Now the things I bought are out of stock.

What can I get my one-year-old as his "big" gift from Santa instead?  I know he won't care, but I think DS1 might wonder what the heck is up when he has a bike with a big ol' bow on it under the tree and the baby has nothing.

  • My baby got one of the Step 2 cars with the huge handle that you can push them around in for his 1st bday, and he still LOVES it.  He is also a huge fan of his Cozy Coupe that he got at 1.
  • We got DS a busy block type thing but it wasn't the Parents one from Target.  We got it at TRU, and it is bigger than the Target one and is also on wheels so he can push it around.  I wish I knew what brand it was to tell you.  Its in a blue box;)  I don't have time right now to search, but maybe you can find it.

  • Darn, that sucks!!  Are they all out at your local store, too?  Both my boys have loved the push car the other poster mentioned, and that pairs well with a bike for your older son.  My one year old is getting a bounce n spin zebra (from the amazon sale), a dinosaur playset (ZipBin brand), and a Clipo blocks activity table.  Also, my boys LOVE our Wheely Cow, and Little People playsets (we have the barn, racing ramp garage, and Ethan is getting the airport and carnival for Christmas).  Oh, Ethan is getting a big transportation rug to drive his cars on, too.

  • You can still get it at Target, but it wont be on sale, we got it before the sale it was $52 after tax. We also got DD a cozy coupe too. 
  • What about this one at TRU: ( I wanted to get it for my 3 mo olds..lol)

    ETA: it's out of stock online, but my TRU had prolly 6-10 in stock last week when I decided against it. 

     

  • We bought Max a rocking horse.  I think Amazon is going to offer one as one of their Lightning Deals later on.  Otherwise, keep watching Amazon maybe?  They keep having great sales.  They had the FP Learning Farm thing yesterday for under $40.

  • I would check your local Target. We have the Parent's one and it is nice. My Mom actually got it at a yard sale for $10!
