The MUST Have Baby Gift for 2009! 

N e w s f l a s h !



This year's must have baby gift of the year is the Munchkin Mozart Music Cube.

Munchkin Mozart Magic Cube

Amazon Price: $16.07 (as of 12/30/2009)Buy Now

The Munchkin Mozart Magic Cube can play up to six different Mozart tunes and it has buttons which allows the baby to turn certain instruments such as the flute or violin on or off.

Not only does the Munchkin Mozart Music Cube provide hours of entertainment for the baby, it is also a great building block in their future musical education.

Here are what some of the reviews on Amazon have said:-

"This toy rocks. Small toddlers to preschool love it and its totally undestructable. You will be very happy with this purchase!"

"My husband is a music professor, and we LOVE this toy. It was given to us as a gift for our now 3-year old, in 2005 (I mention this because a 2003 review complained about the music quality). Unlike most electronic toys, which we generally hate, this one was on-pitch. It allows children to listen for different voices in the harmony."

"My daughter loves the Mozart cube. She has enjoyed playing with it from 12 months through today (18 months) and I can't imagine her interest waning any time soon. "

Baby Teethers 

Baby Teethers are something that all babies will need and that's why they are a great gift idea...

Baby Clothes for Boys 

When buying for a baby you're really trying to please the parents as the baby will spend more time delighting in the wrapping paper than with what is inside! Clothes are always welcomed as it can be overwhelming keeping up with changing clothes due to baby's sicking up or nappies leaking.

Some of the clothes selection available are really cute, but others are very boring. I have managed to find some really unique clothes that would make fantastic presents.

Diaper Cakes 

Diaper Cakes are a great gift to give for a newborn. If you are going to be getting gifts for lots of newborns then a great idea would be to make your own. Let's face it I've always found that when one friend announces they're pregnant it seems to become an epidemic.

These Diaper Cakes look amazing and make excellent gifts, the only drawback is that people will start asking you if you could make one for them to give to a friend. (I guess if you're after a business it's not a bad idea!)

Learn how to make not 1, not 2, but 3 different types of Diaper Cakes with simple easy to follow video instructions. By making your own Diaper Cakes you can add individual touches to delight your friends.

Lamaze Baby Toys 

Lamaze toys are created with the support of the lamaze philosophy. The toys are designed to encourage a child's development with parent interaction.

The Lamaze "Infant Development System" incorporates the guidance of child development experts from Yale University, and makes it easy for you to select toys that are appropriate for each stage of a baby's development.

Lamaze Jacques the Peacock

This toy was actually featured in Parent's Magazine as the #1 Best Toy Pick for children 0-12 mths.

The peacock is light enough - and the feather panels thin enough - for little hands to grab, tug and pick up without easily dropping. The feather panels also provide several chewable surfaces for little ones who love to put everything in their mouth.

The back of the peacock feathers have different black and white panels which makes the toy interesting even when the toys happens to be upside down. The combination of the big eyes, the different things in each of the wings ie mirror, squeaker etc, the krinkly sounds and bright colors associated with Lamaze toys all make Jacques the Peacock an excellent gift choice for any baby.

Lamaze My First Mirror

Babies absolutely love mirrors, both for looking in and for licking, this mirror has the advantage of being on a wedge so that they can see themselves from different angles.

It can also be attached to strollers and car seats when going out, this is a fantastic idea. When my daughter was little we had a mirror that she could hold at home, but it wouldn't attach to her stroller - we ended up buying a second type just to attach to the stroller. If I had seen these mirrors then, I would have been very happy!

The bright colors and different surfaces on the triangular cube (that the mirror is attached to) interest the baby as well.

Building blocks are a fantastic idea for babies and toddlers alike and will provide hours of fun. At the Baby Classroom (click on banner below) they have a range of blocks available as well as lots of other goodies for babies to play and grow.

The blocks pictured here are fantastic as babies can learn different animals, colors and more all whilst playing.

Introduce the Baby to Reading 

New Zealander Lynley Dodd has created wonderful characters such as Hairy Maclary and Slinky Malinki who the children love.

Her books of rhyme captivate children and also help them to learn to read from an early age. I read these stories to my daughter from the time she was a baby and, as gifts, these books always become firm favorites.

All of these books are board books, so the baby will not rip the pages and can hold on to them easier as they get older.

Hairy Maclary and Zachary Quack (Hairy Maclary and Friends)

Hairy Maclary is a mischievious little dog while Zachary Quack is, surprizingly, a duck! Poor Hairy Maclary wants to have a quiet snooze, but Zachary Quack wants to play.

Now I didn't have this book in my daughter's collection for some reason and when she went to daycare they read the book to her. She came home talking about Zachary Quack constantly and so her grandparents ended up buying her her own copy!

Slinky Malinki (Viking Kestrel Picture Books)

Slinky Malinki is a black cat with a kink in his tail, who in this offering is very naughty and has been out stealing.

This was my daughter's favorite book for a long time - I can still quote it word for word years later!

This is an introduction to Hairy Maclary and a few of his friends including Hercules Morse, Muffin McLay and Bottomley Potts.

Baby DVDs 

The Baby Einstein range is wonderful for a baby. My daughter loved watching a dvd everyday, sometimes if she wouldn't settle I would pop her in front of Baby Bach and she would fall asleep quite happily.

The initial ones for the young baby go for 20 mins and introduce the baby to colors, music and an assortment of other things. A parent can chose to interact with their child or can sit down with a well deserved cup of tea/coffee while the baby is entertained!

Baby Einstein Gift Pack Volume 2 (Baby Mozart/Baby Van Gogh/World Animals/Neighborhood Animals)

Baby Mozart was the first Baby Einstein dvd that I became aware of. We had just moved to Brisbane and were staying with friends for a couple of weeks whilst our house was being vacated. They had a young baby and when she couldn't be settled they put her in front of Baby Mozart and it was truely amazing.

We brought quite a few of the Baby Einstein dvd's and I loved the Baby Van Gogh one. My daughter really seems to appreciate art and loves checking out paintings and commenting on them - I credit Baby Van Gogh with that.

Amazon Price: $56.49 (as of 12/30/2009) Buy Now

Baby Einstein Gift Pack Volume 1 (Baby Bach/Baby Newton/Baby Einstein/Baby Shakespeare)

Baby Bach was the first Baby Einstein dvd I brought as my friend already had the Baby Mozart so we could swap them.

The Baby Shakespeare was fantastic for when the baby is getting older (1+) and I think that this dvd coupled with Lynley Dodd's fantastic books is definately one of the reasons that my daughter is at the top of her class in English.

Baby's First Christmas 

A baby's first Christmas is a memorable occassion, buying them a Christmas Tree ornament that they can help put up every year or a photo album are great ideas.

A baby's first Christmas is also a time for starting new Christmas traditions and what better tradition than their very own ornament?
