Babies: 3 - 6 Months

The Big Present

What are you getting your LO for Christmas for their big present.  I was thinking a jumperoo, but I really want him to have it right now.  He isn't really into lying down and playing, but he doesn't want to sit in the Bumbo, he'd rather bounce on his legs. 

 Not sure what to get a 6 month old for Christmas besides the jumperoo!

Re: The Big Present

  • We're getting an entertainment center for our daughter. Initially I wanted to go ahead and get it now, but she's happy enough in her bouncer or high chair that another month or so of waiting should be fine.

  • Nothing? Money in her college account probably. She won't know the difference :)

  • Nothing. The beauty of them being so little is they have no clue :). If you want to get them something now go ahead and do it. Kinda no point to wait until Christmas if you are allocating the money to be spent and think they will enjoy it more now.

  • Thanks to everyone's point about nothing or savings.  This was kind of a thought of mine.  We were planning on going the used route anyway and getting it early because there is no way I'm packing that thing for 6 hours in the car for Christmas Day at the grandparents anyway. 

     Hopefully I can get DH on board.  I do think he would be enjoying it now.

  • I'm going to make her a stocking and buy a few toys to put inside. There's nothing she really needs right now and she won't be old enough to open presents, so I'll wait til next year to get her real presents. Also, I'm sure my family and my SO's family will get her some things since she is the only baby in the family - and thus very spoiled :)

  • The only big thing DD needs is a highchair so we'll be getting that.

  • I'm getting a bunch of little things (toys and such), but I don't know if I'll wrap them. It's debatable whether I can wait for Christmas to hand them over. Don't wait on the Jumperoo. My daughter loves hers and I'm glad I didn't wait. I'm thinking of trying out solids for Christmas since she'll be almost 6 months. It would make for a funny picture to see her Christmas outfit covered in baby food :)

  • I got a few little things - Like a "My Pal" Stuffy ...and a picture cube that makes noises...but we are not going crazy. She has everything she needs and then some so really it's more because her sister would think the LO got shortchanged by Santa ;)

    This is what I'm getting for my LO and a few little toys. I have a feeling my mom is going to go crazy though! (first grandchild!)

  • We got a few things that we think she will be needing around that time... some sitting toys and stuff like that.. We aren't going crazy and probably won't next year either since she still won't really understand.

  • We're getting a wagon and a few books. I also got a couple walking and table toys from a consignment sale.

  • I'm not sure yet. I'm just going to scope out the toy aisles and look for 6M+ things. Nothing big but I'm definitely going to buy her something. I will probably buy her some girly toys because right now we really only have hand me down toys from DS. I want her to have some of her own. 6 months is a fun age where they really start to notice toys so I think presents at this age is great!

    This is what we're doing too...and maybe just a few little toys.  She really doesn't have that many toys right now.

  • This is our "big" present this year.  Not much but I like that she can grow into it.  One side is an activity table with lights and sounds for now (christmas time) and the other side is an art table.  Should last til at least 3-5yrs old!  I was originally going to get one with more lights etc but we decided this would last longer and get more use in the long run.
