<p class="has-medium-font-size">So what do you get? Here’s my list of a few items to purchase for a one year old that isn’t clothes:</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">*disclaimer: links are affiliate links meaning if you click the link and make a purchase, I may receive a commission at no additional cost to you*</h6>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong><u>Membership to their local zoo or children’s museum.</u> </strong></h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Moms love having free things to do with their little ones, especially ones that get them out of the house and possibly have some hands on learning involved as well!</p>



<p><img height="996" width="742" src="https://mamabearreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/img_5782-1.jpg" class="size-full wp-image-1122"><img height="960" width="750" src="https://mamabearreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/img_5780.jpg" class="size-full wp-image-1119"></p>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong><b><u>Educational toys</u></b>,</strong> </h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Not just ones that light up and make obnoxious noises. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Granted the baby will LOVE that, but you might have just lost yourself a friend in the process (kidding&#8230;maybe). </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Chances are by now that kiddo has a million toys that light up and/or make noise that sometimes the batteries just <i>happen</i> to “die” or need “recharging”. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">So save yourself (and your friendship) and get some toys that teach counting or numbers such as this Elmo alphabet <a rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PAE805S/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&;camp=1789&;creative=9325&;creativeASIN=B00PAE805S&;linkCode=as2&;tag=mamabear06-20&;linkId=3c9689fd802edeb8687ba324d3743853" target="_blank"><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">briefcase</span></a>.</p>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong><b><u>Mommy (or parent) &; Me lessons</u></b>. </strong></h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">This gives something for mama (or caregiver) to do with the baby to bond and get out of the house. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Gives mama a mom-friendly zone to meet other mom parents (if she hasn’t already) and some socialization for baby! </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Search their local area to see if somewhere offers swim lessons or gymnastics for babies.</p>
