That will definitely be used! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-417031 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:57:54 +0000 T.H.O.U. 417031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How close is he to crawling/walking, etc? </p> <p>I would look at things like a wagon, cozy coupe, or a bike he can ride on and you can push. All of those things can be used in a few months once sitting up well.</p> <p>I guess, I would look for gear that can be used in the next 5 months (ages 5 months to 10 months) and then you will get more new stuff for first birthday. You dont' want to get a bunch of "baby" stuff (like bouncers/jumpers) when he's going to be mobile soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-417027 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:56:59 +0000 mediagirl 417027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Amelieisme: soft books with noises in them like crinkly noises or squeakers; floor mirror; toys you can put in and take out - like a fish bowl with toys to put into it and take out of it; music table - with legs that come off so it can be on the floor with him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-417013 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:53:21 +0000 littlek 417013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is this really cool toy that we are asking the in laws for LO.. it's called Fisher Price Cruise and Groove Ballapalooza.. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Cruise-and-Groove-Ballapalooza/dp/B0089W1IES/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1354042358&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=groove+ballapalooza" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Cruise-and-Groove-Ballapalooza/dp/B0089W1IES/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1354042358&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=groove+ballapalooza</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-417009 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:51:04 +0000 sorrycharlie 417009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Amelieisme: my lo is 2 months, id say its for 9 mos+! but btwn christmas &amp; sept when she turns 1, there arent really any opportunities to just buy it :) my nanny LOs loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-416978 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:42:10 +0000 Smurfette 416978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Something along these lines<br /> <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2541349" rel="nofollow">http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2541349</a><br /> <a href="http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=10860230" rel="nofollow">http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=10860230</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-gift-for-5-month-old#post-416967 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:37:28 +0000 Amelieisme 416967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: I don't really care if its a toy or gear...just something that will be used :) How old is your LO?

My mother is going to buy him a high chair and I found a good deal on an activity center so I will be giving him that. Any ideas on a bigger gift that he might need in the near future? </p>
