The great gift guide for little ones

The great gift guide for little ones

At this time of year, many of us are searching for the perfect gifts and preparing for some very special time with our loved ones. If Christmas is part of your celebrations, we hope this little gift guide can lend a helping hand. Whether it's your bub’s first Christmas, your toddler’s second encounter with Santa, or you’re buying a gift for another child, here are some gift suggestions to nurture their development.  

Age 0-6 Months

Sensory toys

  • Soft, textured blankets 
  • Rattles with varied sounds

Baby gym/play mat 

  • Colourful mats with hanging toys for tummy time 

Teething toys

  • Soft, BPA-free teething rings 

Age 6-12 Months

Stacking toys

  • Stackable blocks or rings for hand-eye coordination 

Musical instruments

  • Soft maracas or a baby piano for auditory development 

Bath time toys

  • Floating toys to make bath time fun and encourage motor skills 

Age 1-2 Years 

Shape sorters

  • Toys that encourage problem-solving and fine motor skills

Push and pull toys

  • Wooden animals on wheels or pull-along toys for mobility

Board books

  • Interactive or textured books to promote language development 

Age 2-3 Years

Art supplies

  • Non-toxic crayons and colouring books for creativity 

Building sets

  • Large, easy-to-handle blocks for imaginative play 

Play kitchen sets

  • Simple kitchen toys to encourage role-playing and social skills 

For all the grandparents looking to treat their grandchildren during the holidays, we recommend personalised gifts such as custom made blankets or name puzzles (these will be cherished for years to come). Experience gifts such as a membership to a local zoo or aquarium are also wonderful ideas. Lastly, there are a range of monthly subscription boxes featuring age-appropriate toys and books, which can be really helpful for ensuring the present is designed for their age and developmental stage. From the entire LittleOak team, we hope you found these suggestions helpful, and that you have a magical time with your loved ones, however you choose to celebrate this time of year.

LittleOak formula promises it’s quality and my twins have loved it. It has been so easy for their stomach, especially for one of my colicky babies. Thank you for a great quality product.

When we transitioned to formula we were worried as our little bub struggled on formula, all anxiety is gone, he happily takes the bottle with no upset tummy and nothing but smiles.

Top notch product for baby backed by a company with excellent customer service. At 7 months old now my baby boy is very satisfied after a bottle of LittleOak. Thank you.

LittleOak has been a lifesaver for our family, massively reduced our baby’s stomach issues and helped him sleep through the night. Highly recommend for parents seeking a gentle formula.

William has now been on LittleOak for 3 months and we have found it very gentle on his stomach, particularly with the transition. Also found it doesn’t smell yucky like other formulas.
