Well, my 1 year old has two product recommendations: The Bounce & Spin Zebra from Fisher Price and the Song & Story Learning Chair, also by Fisher Price.
Also, if you are planning a birthday party, I highly recommend looking at the Birthday Express website – they have a wide variety of party theme decorations available for 1st Birthdays as well as Toddler Birthdays. Sarah’s party was the ‘Lil Cupcake theme and Kevin’s party in a few weeks will be the Lego theme (He picked it out himself!)
