Amazing Christmas gifts for babies and toddlers
Buying gifts for babies and toddlers can be tricky as they don’t need much, and they often have hand-me-downs if they have older siblings. Here are some of my favourite ideas for gifts for babies and toddlers for Christmas.
Just wanted to give you a heads-up that this guide includes items I’ve been paid to feature, PR samples, and affiliate links that earn me a small commission. All opinions are my own, and I wouldn’t include anything I don’t think would make an lovely gift for someone. Jen x
Gift ideas for babies under one
Babies who are around the age of weaning don’t often have the need for gifts at Christmas but if you want to buy something to wrap for them then how about a lovely weaning set? This set from Pippeta is £32.99.
If you are buying for a baby or a new mum who is enjoying breastfeeding but feels it could be a little easier for her if she had more freedom then a wearable breast pump might be the perfect gift. Whilst it isn’t directly for her, and I would advise buying her something more personal too, it would make a nice gift. The Pippeta pump is £69.99 and might be the perfect gift for them both.
Baby journals always make lovely gifts and I particularly like this one as it is designed with so much flexibility. An example of this is the parent’s section, it doesn’t have Mum and Dad. The whole book is lovely and so well designed I wish I had it 18 years ago before I had Ben. This baby journal is from Cheeky Little Smiles for £35 and comes beautifully presented in tissue paper.
Isn’t it just lovely?
A money box makes a lovely gift for a baby or toddler as they don’t need to have it within their reach and this personalised one from Asda Photo is lovely and a bargain at just £9.

Gifts for toddlers and babies over one year
Clothes make a great gift for little ones, and this cute fleece and green coat is no exception. The coat is reversible too so they have two coats in one which given how long clothes fit youngsters is a great touch I think. From Helly Hansen, this coat is available in multiple colours and sizes for £65.
This LittleLife dinosaur backpack would make such a cool gift for a dinosaur-mad little one. It includes built-in reins so that an adult can keep them safe whilst they toddle around being a dinosaur and carrying their favourite bits to nursery! This backpack is £19.99 from LittleLife and is suitable for ages 1-3, there is also a larger similar one for slightly older children on the website and many other equally fun designs if you are buying for a little one who loves something different.
This Marvel Spiderman plush is cute and perfect for little ones and safe from 12 months. He is soft and more like a teddy than an action figure so I think it would be great for youngsters who want to play with older siblings’ toys but aren’t quite ready for them yet! This Spiderman Plush is £14.99 from Amazon.
