If you are picking toys for your new baby, choose those that encourage open-ended play and exploration. In the first six months of your baby's life, rattles and other grabbing toys, balls, activity gyms, and board books are excellent ways to encourage developmental milestones. Toys in your baby's room will encourage them to practice their newfound skills and explore the world on their own by practicing their newfound skills and exploring the world.

It is ideal for them to play with soft blocks, squishy toys, stuffed animals that are soothing, rattles, teethers, and rattles. They will love a security blanket, a cloth book, a music bug that activates songs to stimulate your child, and a security blanket will calm your child and make them feel comfortable. Your child will discover new colors and new images by using a cloth book.

A marble, coin, ball, or game with a ball that is less than 1.75 inches (4.4 centimeters) in diameter is not recommended for kids, as they can lodge in the throat above the windpipe and cause breathing problems. It is extremely important for battery-operated toys to be secured with screws so that children cannot open the battery cases.

There are several things to consider when looking for toys for a 1-year-old. The first thing to recognize is that they are rapidly growing out of their baby toys, even if some (like the favorite stuffies and loveys) might still be appealing. They are gradually moving into toddler toys, but many of them are still a bit complex for them. 

Aside from this, one-year-olds still have to be kept away from unsafe toys, such as the kind with small parts that could be choking hazards, or the kind that could pinch little fingers – making it difficult to buy gifts for kids this age for their birthdays or for the holidays.

One-year-olds are always on the move! Typically, they are able to walk steadily and can even climb stairs. They like stories, say their first words, and can play with other children (but not yet with them). They love to experiment, but they need adults to watch over them.

Here are good toys for your one-year old!

• Simple board books with illustrations or photos
• Games that use their large and small muscles -- puzzles, large pegboards, toys with moving parts (dials, switches, knobs, lids), big and small balls
• Toys to pretend with: phones, dolls, baby carriages and strollers, dress-up accessories (scarves, purses), puppets, stuffed animals, plastic animals, and cars that look real
• Creating tools—wide non-toxic markers, crayons, and large paper
• Song, rhyme, story, and picture recordings

It's important that toys for young kids match their developmental stages and emerging abilities, as well as being safe. Many safe play materials are free ones you'll find in your house. Various “treasures” like cardboard boxes, plastic bowls, plastic bottle caps, and collections of plastic bottle caps can be used in different ways by kids of different ages.

You should remember that each child develops at their own rate, as long as they are safe, can be good options for kids younger or older than the suggested age range. A 1-year-old might be a tough one, but finding a meaningful gift might be easier than you think. It's the age when the box can be more fun than the toy itself.
