A couple of months ago I did a post about 9 Things to keep an 11 month old busy and now that Sienna is one year old (14 months) I thought that I should do an update of this and do a list of the toys that she is enjoying a lot at the moment.
This is a great toy for a 1 year old. Sienna loves playing with it, although she is still too young to enjoy all the functions but it is certainly good enough to entertain her for a little bit.
2. LeapFrog Shapes and Sharing Picnic Basket
This was one of Sienna’s birthday presents. She absolutely adores it!! It comes with music and a voice that talks about the shapes and colours. Sienna finds it fascinating. She always plays with this.
3. Fun Time Pop-Up Farm Friends
This is a very interesting toy because Sienna knows pretty well how to push all the animals down but she hasn’t yet been able to make them pop up! What she does is, after pushing them down very hard because she uses a lot of force LOL, she passes to the toy to me so I have to pop them up. This keeps her entertained for a fair amount of time. The only problem is that, for me it is a little bit tiring. However, I hope she will soon master it all herself soon.
This was a nice present from Grandma. It was actually for Bella originally but now Sienna has inherited it. The Mega Bloks are a classic toy for little ones. Sienna doesn’t build much yet but what she loves to do a lot is to get the individual pieces outside the box or she simply just carries the box, turns it upside down and then all the pieces go everywhere. This is great as she plays with it for quite a bit of time.
5. My First Tablet
This is another fantastic toy. Sienna is always watching Mummy and Daddy typing on our laptops or Bella playing with her iPad so of course she wants to have something similar too. She likes this tablet toy from Toys R Us. It has music and a woman talking. The settings have a choice of English or French. I would’ve preferred to have it in English and Spanish instead but they didn’t have that. She runs around holding the tablet like a crazy person and she gets so excited!! It is so funny!
6. Thomas and Friends Press & Go Thomas
Even though Sienna is a girl she loves trains too which I find super cool. She likes Thomas the Tank Engine. This toy is really good, she likes to press the little driver and let it go. It is very fun for her and I love watching her playing with it.
7. Thomas & Friends: First Sit & Ride
Again, another Thomas the Tank toy!! We got this for someone else a long time ago but for some reason we ended up giving something else so we kept this toy. I wasn’t sure as I wanted something with pink but the truth is that she doesn’t really care, it is just me who cares, LOL! She rides this a lot lately and loves to push it around, so we now love it!!
8. Ikea Mula Pull Wagon With 24 Building Blocks
We bought this from Ikea a few years ago and it has been always a hit toy with Bella and now its the same with Sienna. It is so good because of the colours and shapes. Sienna can’t put the pieces back in the box (at least not correctly) but she loves taking them out of it and sucking them. It is her guilty pleasure!! LOL.
9. Fisher-Price Stacking Surprise Song & Smiles Silly Town
This toy was a present from the Grandparents and has also been around our and their house since Bella was born. This playset from Fisher Price has been a life saver as it has lots of different features. Sienna loves the music and loves watching the little characters going up and down!
This was a gorgeous present for Sienna’s 1st birthday from her Godparents. They bought it in Italy when they were there for holidays. The illustrations are beautiful and it has 10 small cubes which your kids can learn the numbers and the names of animals, bugs, plants, etc. Of course Sienna’s favourite game is throwing away all the cubes after building the tower. She loves that part!
What do you think of theses toys? Do you also have a 1 year old that plays with similar toys? What other toys do you use? Please leave a comment below as I would to know what you think.
Thanks for stopping by,
Love you all ❤️

Lindos juguetes!! Están con la navidades adelantada
Great suggestions! While we have some similar toys, I love that picnic basket with its adorable food. I need to go find one for my son. Thank you for sharing! #AnythingGoes
Lindos todos los jugué tintos de Sienna !! Muy didáctico para las mamis con hijo así de 1 año
Felicitaciones
Aww such lovely toys. My daughter (17 months) just loves her mega bloks, but also pushing her teddies or dolly around in a pram and pretending to feed them 🙂
It’s been so long, I can’t remember. But I saw those Mega Blocs and thought, “And so it begins ..”. It ends with Lego. Lots of Lego! (Seriously I could do pictures every day for a year of our Lego creations and still not be done!)
What a lovely selection of toys 🙂 The picnic set is fantastic!
Thanks for linking up to #AnythingGoes

Can’t go wrong with Mega Bloks! They were a massive hit with my little girl when she turned one, she has a box full of them now and we keep adding to her collection!
#KCACOLS
Well, as you now know my boy doesn’t play with actual toys, ha ha! But I do like the look of these, especially the wood blocks from Ikea.
Thank you for hosting #KCACOLS

You couldn’t have written this post at a better time! Just today I was thinking that I need to get Taylor some more toys as she really doesn’t seem very interested in the ones she has (unless she can suck or chew them she really isn’t bothered!) but I was thinking building blocks would be ideal. She also loves to ‘unpack’ things (usually dirty laundry from the laundry basket!) so that picnic set looks perfect! I definitely need to check some of these out. Brilliant suggestions #KCACOLS
Haha I just wrote a similar comment, and now reading the comments I’ve spotted yours! H is obsessed with putting things in and out of any tub, ring, bowl, and also, really loves the washing basket too. I admit, I’ve been known to leave it in her playroom for her to play with as it occupies her nicely while I catch up on housework 😀 x
Some classics in here we have enjoyed and have in our properties still #KCACOLS
My 14 month old likes megabloks too. Mostly she likes her older sister’s toys, and spends less time with her own though! Love the picnic basket – so sweet! #KCACOLS
Brilliant suggestions, thanks so much 🙂 My two love anything bright coloured and my 2.5 year old still loves mega blocks and anything she can stack or build up. I LOVE the mess of them ha ha!! Mim x #KCACOLS
Lovely selection of toys! We’ve got very similar at home too. My 17 month old boys favourites at the moment are ride-on toys and his sisters pushchairs!! #KCACOLS
It’s so funny, my daughter had so many of these or similar but at 1 years old everything would keep her entertained for about 5 seconds – it was frustrating! In the end I found it was the simple things that weren’t toys…kids eh!? #KCACOLS
I love the picnic basket, so cute ! I always think you can’t go wrong with a wagon of bricks, my girls have made great use of them over the years. #KCACOLS
All great toys. My boy is 2 but he still loves his shape sorters and his mega blocks. I think he would like that picnic basket toy too.xx #KCACOLS
My kids are 5 & 2 now but still love playing megablocks, I think it suits all ages. Girls doesn’t really bother a lot whether its a toy for boys or girls because my little girl loves playing her big brother’s toy cars and yes, it’s us mummys who cares a lot. lol Great post! #KCACOLS.
This is a fab post for me as H is 11 months this week. I’ve been getting asked about 1st birthday and Xmas presents, so I might just use your list! Thank you, I was struggling!
#kcacols
The picnic basket looks really cute and fun (if only I had a girl!!) Mine still love megabloks and we also have the Press and Go Thomas. Some great toys here! #KCACOLS
Really great toys! I really like the picnic basket and megablocks as Mia has similar toys and spends a lot of time playing with them. Shes 2 and she still plays with these kinds of toys and still gets a lot of fun out of them in fact we aren’t getting her many toys for Christmas as she still has plenty of toys she likes 🙂
#KCACOLS
These look great I’ve had variations of these before but need to get some more toys for Baby D as he turns 1 in December and is outgrowing his teething toys! #KCACOLS
So many great toys here! My children used to enjoy the block building and stacking toys when they were younger. I like the look of that basket. So much fun! #KCACOLS
Some great choices there. Megablocks must be on every mummy’s list – including the container yours came in. 🙂 #KCACOLS
Ah i remember Miss M having numbers 1,2,3 and 4! That brings back some fun memories 🙂 #KCACOLS
Great list. My one year old loves balls and cars!! But mostly balls xx
This is fantastic! I have a one year old too. He has some of these, but you’ve inspired me with the picnic set. (I think I’ll enjoy it more than him..!) x
My girls are now older and my youngest, now 4 years old, still plays with the picnic set! She doesn’t want me to give it away yet! So it is definitely a toy that ill last for years! 🙂 x
