It’s been a long time since most of us were that small, so knowing what to buy a baby for their first birthday present can leave us feeling pretty stumped. It’s also around this age that a baby’s personality starts to shine through and it’s natural to want to get them something unique, which is why personalised books, art and trinkets are so popular. These types of gifts are also a great way of marking such an important milestone, as over time it will be impossible to forget who or what the gift was for!

Other baby first birthday presents could be an adorable outfit, soft toy or colourful nursery decorations. Bring the whole family in on the fun with a photoshoot experience, or keep things focused on the star of the day by getting a piece of jewellery engraved with their name

Baby Birthday Presents FAQs

What can I buy my baby for their first birthday?

For their first birthday, you could buy your baby a gift that combines learning development and fun. Creative choices include things like playdough, garden toys, or a personalised book. Otherwise, buy them a lasting keepsake like a memory box or photo album that they can look back on in years to come.

What do you do for a first birthday?

Throwing a party is the standard thing to do for a first birthday. Whether you host an intimate gathering for close family and friends or celebrate with a much larger group, you’ll be glad that you marked this important milestone. To make the occasion extra special, you could hire a photographer to capture all of the precious moments or write a touching letter for your baby to open when they turn 18.

What is the best birthday gift for a baby girl?

There are plenty of options when it comes to choosing a birthday gift for a baby girl. You could buy her a special outfit or, for something more unusual, a toddler-sized cutlery set. Toys and books are always a great idea, especially if you can personalise them with the birthday girl’s name. Otherwise, wall hangings, trinket boxes and other cute keepsakes will always be appreciated.

What is the best gift for a one-year-old baby?

The best gift for a one-year-old baby could be something to remember the occasion by, such as a keepsake, a photoshoot or a photo album. If you want to get a present that the birthday boy or girl can begin to enjoy immediately, you could go for some new clothes, a plush toy, or a book of classic children’s stories.
