These two will stop everything they’re doing if Hannah or Zoe need attention. They’ll even bring out the big guns – food and gifts – just to win some extra points.
But you know what? I don’t get too caught up in the madness. I’m just sitting back, being the cool one, and letting quality over quantity do the talking.
I choose the best presents that they have the most fun with, for every Christmas and Birthday and just the kids come to me if they want.
Because at the end of the day, who do you think will come out on top as the favorite? That’s right, me of course!
So here are my top tips for the best 1st birthday presents, fun educational and maybe even something to drive the parents nuts…
A personalized photo album: Create a personalized photo album with pictures from the child’s first year to help them remember all the special moments.
A custom-made stuffed animal: Have a one-of-a-kind stuffed animal made to look like their favorite animal or character.
