What are the best toys and gifts for infants?

In my Toddler Gift Guide, I talked about the importance of open-ended toys. An open ended toy is one that can be used in many different ways. Think, animals, blocks, manipulatives, etc.

I think the same goes for the little babies too! Although babies cannot manipulate toys as well as toddlers can, there are still many opportunities to incorporate sensory touch and play with the young ones.

I think some other amazing gifts for families don’t even involve toys some of the time! I will list some of those handy and cozy items below as well. Links are on photos and on underlined text!

1. Easy Grasp Rattle Ball (3+ months)

2. Zoli Bunny Teethers (0-9 months)

3. Mushie Stacking Cups (3+ months)

4. COZYS BRAND ANYTHING (all ages)

I am sorry but if you haven’t heard of cozys yet, where you been?

They are local to AZ but ship all around the US. They have frequent sales and holiday options on their site too! They sell THE SOFTEST swaddles, lovies, blankets (big and small, i asked for one this year), kids and adult PJ sets, and so much more. They use the best material that stays great quality no matter how many washes! We love this small business!

5. Etsy Name Puzzle / Busy Board (all ages)

6. Soft Building Blocks (4+ months)

Hopefully these 6 items are helpful for you if you are buying for an infant this holiday season! Let me know your favorite items from 2021 that you would gift to a baby. Pass this post on to someone who you know if buying for babies this year!

XOXO
