Just like every other mother, today Mum and I braved the crowds and took Ashley toy shopping. With no deposit lay-by’s the shops were packed. After going to Myer last week and Big W and K-Mart this week, Christmas shopping done!
Ashley enjoyed himself just looking around at all the other people and all the toys. I tried to stick to only buying him a few toys, since when you buy kids too many toys they don’t get around to playing with them all. I am also planning on saving them for the next baby and don’t really have that much storage space. To be quite honest I think once he has finished playing with them they will have to be stored at Grandma’s house.
OK, so what did I buy? A Go Baby Go – Sit to Stand Giraffe, Rocking Plush Lion, an Interactive Letterbox and Foam Letter Mats. Besides the fun things I also have put aside some ‘traditional’ learning type things, like books and flash cards. Mum and Dad bought him; a Winnie the Pooh Story Reader, Wooden Count and Learn, Animal Wheelpals Hammer the Bedbugs and Foam Letter Mats.
Since we thought that Ashley also needed toys to play with now, we bought him a Train Set with flashing lights and music, plastic ball with bell rattle, 2 nursery rhyme CD’s and 2 teething pacifiers. With all the exciting stuff going on at the shops he also ended up with a purple balloon (from Big W) and an orange balloon (from BankWest).
