10 Toys To Entertain A 1 Year Old

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 make a list of the toys for a 1 year old that she is enjoying a lot at the moment.

10 Toys to Entertain a One Year Old

1. Activity Cube Baby Toy – 6 in 1 Educational Discover Center

This is an excellent toy for a 1-year-old. Sienna loves playing with it, and although she is still too young to enjoy all the functions, 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 adores it!! It comes with music and a voice that talks about 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 how to push all the animals down pretty well, 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 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 it is a little tiring for me. However, I hope she will soon master it all herself soon.

4. MEGA BLOKS Big Building Bag

This was a nice present from Grandma. It was initially intended for Bella, 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. Alternatively, she 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 while.

5. Baby My First Talking 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 features music and a woman’s voice. The settings offer a choice between English and French. I would have preferred to have it in English and Spanish, but they didn’t have that option. She runs around holding the tablet like a crazy person, and she gets so excited!! It is so funny!

6. THOMAS & FRIENDS Toy Train

Even though Sienna is a girl, she loves trains, too, which I find super cool. She likes Thomas the Tank Engine. This toy is good; she likes to press the little driver and let it go. It is very fun for her, and I love watching her play with it.

7. Thomas & Friends Kids Ride On Toys

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 care; it’s just me who cares, LOL! She rides this a lot lately and loves to push it around, so we’ve come to love it, too!

8. Ikea Mula Pull Wagon With 24 Building Blocks
(Amazon Alternative)

We bought this from IKEA a few years ago, and it has always been a hit with Bella; now it’s 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 and sucking on 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 house and theirs since Bella was born. This playset from Fisher-Price has been a lifesaver, as it features numerous different elements. Sienna loves the music and loves watching the little characters going up and down!

10. Djeco Stacking Cubes

This was a gorgeous present for Sienna’s 1st birthday from her Godparents. They purchased it in Italy during their holiday visit. The illustrations are beautiful, featuring 10 small cubes where your kids can learn the numbers and names of animals, bugs, plants, and more. Of course, Sienna’s favourite game is throwing away all the cubes after building the tower. She loves that part!

I have put together a list of suggestions for toys for a 1 year old on my Amazon Store that might be good entertainment.
