Those whose LO's have a "Ball Pit"

[musiclover]

Do you suggest it? I was thinking of getting N one for his birthday, one of the shallow ones that he can crawl in and out of.  I know i'll curse the fact that those effin balls will be all over my home, but it looks like fun.
What do you think?

What is everyone getting LO for their birthday?

Yes, ball pits rock!!

I think we are going to get him a kiddie pool for his bday.

Yes! We have the Cars one - its AWESOME!! Cam LOVES to crawl up to it and play, then crawl away, and back again, and so on.. The balls really aren't everywhere. Maybe like, 8 or less. He has the attention span of about 5 seconds, so after throwing 5 or 6 balls, he's over it. haha. But I do recommend it!!

ETA: I really want to get him some sort of power wheels for his birthday. My nephew got one at his 1st bday and caught on really fast. We dont have a yard, so he'd have to drive it inside, but we have a lot of open space so it would be no problem! I want to get this one



Its Batman!!!!

Charlotte was just having the time of her life playing in her cousin's ball pit this weekend.

We are getting her the PB Kids Anywhere chair.

Great minds! I was just looking these up online. I figured it would be fun thing for kids to play with at the party. I juse saw an inflatable pool that you fill with balls, then you can use the pool in the summertime. I think I like that idea.

A sandbox.

Kiddie pool is a perfect idea, Adam LOVED his!!! There is nothing more fun than spashing around on a hot day

[musiclover]

I had thought about a sandbox, but the park that is literally 2 minutes away from us has a giant sand play area so we just go there, otherwise I think that would be a huge hit.


hm..........perhaps though, it would be nice for me just to sit in my lounge chair, with a cold drink, at home and watch the Nolan eat handfuls of sand boys play in our own sand box??

I was thinking of getting her a tricycle but having thought more I think that would be better for the next birthday. And at that point we may just get her the push bike so...

So I don't know what I could get her! She has such a short attention span and our house is full of crap already.

Maybe this thread will give me more ideas...

We are thinking of a ball pit, too. she already has a ton of balls, so it's not like we aren't fishing them out from under the furniture all the time, anyway.

ETA: the one we want also turns into a kiddie pool and has a sun canopy. It's from that catalog that I think is bump spam.

I am thinking of getting her the 4-in-1 trike like this Trike

Or the cozy coupe, anywhere chair, table and chair set from Ikea.

I haven't decided yet.  I also want a toy kitchen, oh the choices.

Ok good, I was hoping that kids this age would use them.  I think they are really cute, and not too expensive, so I will probalby get them!

Holden is getting sadie Violet for her birthday. We still have a lot of holden's old crap (play kitchen, etc) so there isn't much left to get.
