Top Christmas Gifts for Babies & Toddlers

So are your little ones all pepped up for Christmas? And are you making efforts keep their excitement going? Well, because if you are not, it will be a great let down for them. If your child has had any exposure to this Christian festival and the Santa tale, they definitely are aware of the gifting ritual too. So you’d better not disappoint them. Let them not hate Santa as well as you for dampening their festive mood.

And, if you are trying to get away with the excuse that your infant is way to small to understand or know anything about this lovely festival; don’t you want to introduce it to them by showering some cheerful gifts?

So, too young or just a tad bit old (by which we mean your kid knows, it no Santa who comes down the chimney to deliver his gift), spread cheers and smiles over your children’s face by giving the choicest of gifts this Christmas. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Find that wish list your kid is sending off to Santa and get them exactly what they’ve wished for. What would make them more happy than having their heart’s desire fulfilled.

2. His own Santa teddy could also be a nice thing to gift them on the occasion. You know kids don’t just love that big fat man for the gifts he brings, but also for that endearing face behind the snowy long beard and the huggable belly in red robe.

3. If you are among those parents who wish to take fun and learning go side by side for the kids, then gift them something of that likes. Coloring books or maybe a book of carols (if your child is old enough to read), or many story books that you could read to them at bedtime.

4. Learning is not just through books. There are other ways in which you can help their mental development. Gift them an interesting jig-saw puzzle or Rubik’s Cube or some fun block games.

5. How about some advance Christmas gifts too. Gift your child some long stockings in advance, to fill them with more gifts on the Christmas eve. Apart from these, a Christmas tree and decoratives to festoon the tree. And yes the adorable Christmas caps are also a part of the advance presents.

6. Like any other festival, celebrating a festival becomes even more delightful when you dress up for it. In India, wearing new clothes on special occasions is anyways a good ritual. So gift your toddler new clothes. You’ll find a wide range of Christmas themed attires online and otherwise.
