Meaningful gifts for the 1st birthday

Babies who are just celebrating their first birthday learn something new every day. If you want to support their development with your gifts for the 1st birthday, these ideas could be just right:

HABA building blocks for little builders

Our wooden blocks and building blocks are perfect toys for the 1st birthday. The 1-year-olds slowly stack them, explore them with all their senses and happily reach into their colorful building box. We offer explorer, creative, themed and basic blocks, which can be combined individually.

Sorting and stacking puzzles

Which hole does the circle or rectangle fit into? And which shapes match together? When the little ones play with insert, stacking, and sorting games engage with them, they learn something new with every move. These games are ideal for familiarizing them with shapes. .

Push walkers for speedy kids

When children take their first steps, parents are delighted. As soon as they are independent and confident on their feet, push walkers are a great support for further learning to walk. Our wooden push walkers are robust all around, have floor-friendly plastic wheels and sometimes accompany families from the child's 1st birthday across generations.

Soft toys for the stroller

When babies get bored in the stroller, it's great if they have soft toys something to touch, look at and play with. Plush books, stuffed animals and other soft toys that can be attached to the stroller make a great gift for the 1st birthday.

A doll as a favorite companion

Dolls are among the loveliest gifts for the 1st birthday. These quickly become the little ones' best friends and often accompany them for years. While babies mainly cuddle with them on their 1st birthday, dolls later definitely become important companions in play in the toy kitchen, at picnics or other role-playing games.

Lasting gifts for the 1st birthday

Baby's first birthday gift becomes a hit when you think about what suits the little ones best. Because they, of course, already have their own personality and their own preferences, which you can definitely take into account when choosing gifts for the first birthday.

If you, for example, building blocks choose, you can give them in a self-designed box as a gift that becomes a highlight in the children's room. When it comes to toys for one-year-old children you can think about what might suit them well. How about, for example, a sorting box with fun animals, which strengthens the fine motor skills and concentration of one-year-olds? A walker aid, that accompanies the quick little ones during their first steps? Or colorful explorer cubes with mirrors, various patterns and acoustic effects that playfully stimulate all the senses?

Birthday gifts for 1-year-olds from grandma and grandpa

What could be more wonderful than making the grandchild very happy for their birthday to do? The gifts for the first birthday from grandma and grandpa are always lovingly chosen and show the little ones as well as mom and dad how much the grandparents are delighted about this first milestone. Traditional gifts for babies, which grandma and grandpa like to choose, include for example wooden toys, stand-up figures or pull toys. They remember these from their own childhood and the joy is great when the baby's eyes light up as soon as it starts to play with them.

Also educational gifts for 1-year-olds are also classics from grandma and grandpa. For example activity trainers with colorful details and many stimuli that appeal to the little ones' senses. But also our play glove with a farm theme or our explorer blocks about the world of trains are great themed gifts that will make the little ones' eyes widen and teach them a lot!
