Toy for a one year old boy?

I'm also going to suggest a book, or maybe a simple shape sorter.

By the way I want to spend 50-100 on the gift...

one year olds.. awww.. they get amused with the box the toy came in.. lol

maybe some educational toy.. like a book with buttons which you press and say numbers.. or animals... since at 1yr they should start trying to talk they can get introduced to more and more words...

the car is nice and mine still likes his.. but he doesn´t fit in anymore.. lol.. although his doesn´t has the handle..

my kid looooved thid little people farm that had animals and made sounds.. also a steering wheel with car sounds... and a fridge magnet with the alphabet that said animals name with that certain letter..

I´ll try get a link for you online

If you are inclined to spend that kind of cash on a 1 year old, do 75% in a CD or straight deposit into a bank and 25% on a toy. Really, it just isn't worth that sort of cash for a one year old. Toys are toys are toys at this age, and most favorite toys of one year olds are the simple, large muscle type thing...like a shape sorter..for about $15. Anything else, IMO IMO IMO is simply a waste of money.

Little People toys are great, and they will be played with for several years. Our baby boy is 10 months old, and gravitates toward those toys when he goes into his sisters' room. Our girls are 2 1/2 and 4 and still enjoy them.

Another option is one of the toys that starts as a push-behind walker and converts to a ride-on toy as he grows.

I am leaning toward the push behind walker that converts..my kids got a lot of use out of the right toys.

As I never had children, all I know is: do not give a toy that makes noise - the parents will NEVER let you forget it!

Buy a savings bond, and a small toy.

I was just coming back to suggest Little People. Nathan got this Little People barn for his first birthday, and nearly 2 years later it's still one of his favorite toys. http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-L...6963975&sr=8-1

Another of Nathan's favorite toys is a ride on/push behind John he got for Christmas when he was 8 months old. He still loves it today and he's nearly 3 now. http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-L...6963975&sr=8-1
