It was a first birthday party for the second son. So I knew they had everything already. We weren't really close with them so I didn't want to spend a ton on something personalized (an easy go to gift for the second child) so I went for the book/toy route. </p> <p>I got a set of Mickey Mouse books (they just went to Disney) and a shape sorter/counter (those pieces get lost easily so I figured a new one wouldn't hurt). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-buy-as-a-gift-for-the-last-childrens-party-you-attended#post-1225464 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:35:25 +0000 MamaBehr 1225464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our most recent birthday party was for a 2 year old, his mom said that he was getting into coloring so we bought a bunch of coloring books, a big pack of crayons, and then one of those special crayons/books for toddlers that colors in rainbows. </p> <p>We just attended almost a whole month of birthday parties every weekend, I'm glad it is dying down!
