Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What We've Brought for Ethan!

Posted on the 07 December 2014 by Alex_bumptobaby @bumptobaby_blog
This year feels that much magical with Ethan being older. I feel like he understands much more than last year and it feels so special because of that. It's been much easier to buy for him this year too and I've sort of had to stop myself from buying anymore!
Here's the final decision of toys that we got for Ethan this year. Hopefully it'll also offer some inspiration for you if you are buying for toddlers this year too..
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!(Yay for christmas presents!)
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Casdon Morphy Richards Kitchen Set |  Amazon.co.uk Ethan's a big fan of role-play type toys and when I spotted this kitchen set I thought it would go perfect with his brand new toy kitchen!Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Bump 'n' Go Bubble Train | tobar.co.ukI've heard lots of wonderful things about this little train! Ethan loves anytthing with wheels on and I'm sure that he is going to love the bubbles too! I can't wait to show him what it does. 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Snuggleasaurs | tobar.co.ukWho could resist a snuggly dinosaur? It's so soft and roars when you squeeze it, I am hoping it's going to be a big hit! In the picture also is some milky bar choccie (from Poundland) for Ethans stocking and a Peppa Pig music set which I picked up for super cheap in toys-r-us. 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Various Books I am trying to grow Ethans book collection some more as he is really into books at the moment and so I found these ones which I think are perfect. The Thomas and Friends book is from Amazon (Ethan loves Thomas the tank engine!), the Noisy Farm book is from M&S and the First 100 Words is Amazon again but I've seen it in Waterstones also for a few pounds more! 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Toy tunnel | Toys-r-usThis was a last minute purchase which my Husband spotted, it wasn't expensive at all (around £10 I think?) and we think Ethan will love it, espeically when he can take it in the garden in the summer. :) 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan! Duplo train | Toys-r-usWe are planning on getting Ethan a brilliant duplo train next year for his birthday that is quite expensive, but we wanted something for now that he could play with and something that would introduce him to the world of duplo and we think this is the perfect solution. I have a feeling he will really love this, being that he is obsessed with wheels! 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Tomy Megasketcher | amazon.co.ukEthan really enjoys drawing but it can sometimes be a hassle to get all of his colouring crayons out and then I have to watch him like a hawk in case he decides to draw on the furniture so I decided that I wanted to get him one of these to use. I hope he likes it :)
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Thomas the tank engine pajamas | amazon.co.ukI came across these on Amazon and loved them right away. They are thick which is great for this time of year and they have Ethans favorite character on! :)
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Wooden Farm playset | tobar.co.ukI have fallen in love with already, it's a farmhouse carry case can be used to transport all of the pieces, and also opens out to form a piece of the scenery and it's really really lovely! 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Thomas the tank engine tumbler, bowl and plate set and cutlery set | Toys-r-usMore Thomas themed pressies! :) I think Ethan will love eating with these sets. I also really wanted to buy them because we are ready to move on to older cutlery and plates now. 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Flashcards and jumbo crayons | amazon.co.ukI'm trying to get Ethan to start saying a few words and I've heard flashcards can really help so we've brought him these ones from Amazon which look great (also sold in Waterstones, but pricer!). At the front of the picture are the crayons we brought him also from Amazon. 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Squidqe Cbeebies toy | Blog winI won this over on Hayleys blog a few months ago and we put it away for Ethan for christmas. It looks really cool and I think it lights up and plays music. 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Fatframe iPad stand for kids | fatframe.co.ukThey cases by Fatframe look really awesome! Apparently you can literally throw your iPad on the floor face down and it's 100% protected! Great for kids and worried adults. This video says it all :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gadIJEOtvY
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Bonnie Kids hat and scarf | halfpintchic.comI love this hat and scarf combo, so much so that I *may* have given them to Ethan early ;) This scarf is his very first one and it looks super cute on! He looks like a little boy wearing it. Somebody tell me.. where did my little baby go?! 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Grandpa Pig's boat | KiddicareAsides from Thomas the Tank Engine, Ethan is obsessed with Peppa Pig - he absolutely loves it! And I just know he will love Grandpa Pig's boat for the bath which comes with Grandpa, Peppa and George models plus bath crayons! I can't wait to see his face when he unwraps this! 
Christmas Gift Inspiration | For Toddlers + What we've brought for Ethan!Duplo Town Knight Tornament | kiddicare.com Carrying on with our Lego Duplo theme that we are trying to get Ethan into (can you tell my Hubby loves Lego?) we've got this little set for Ethan to open on Christmas day. It's just a small set so doesn't cost much at all (£8.99) but I really love the little horse and knight that you get in it and hope Ethan will too.
So there you have it! That's what Ethan has this christmas and that concludes my three main gift guides this year!
