Dunno how much your looking to spend, but I like the idea of a savings bond.

GyrlSpeedRT · 05-27-2007, 12:41 PM

Something educational, but still fun...

How much are those starting at, and like, what's the maturity and all?

Do I get it from a bank, or what?

CarbonIS · 05-27-2007, 12:47 PM

banks are closed so ur SOL for today haha. I would get some type of
educational toy. Or a Wiggles or Elmo video. My niece is 2, and I spoil her, so
I'm a pro at baby toys

Pff. My car takes expensive batteries, you should know that by now!

AA's are nothing. My car? The whole underneath is D Cell.

+1....a kid's first birthday is usually something that the parents can use for the kid

Silverfc88 · 05-27-2007, 02:33 PM

How about a dancing Elmo? Or anything Elmo.

poolmike · 05-27-2007, 02:36 PM

Tonka dump truck. All steel with sharp edges. That is what I got for my nephews.

zerioustt · 05-27-2007, 03:05 PM

the fiance and i got my nephew a 100 dollar savings account that only we can add money into. we started with a 100 on his bday and added 100 on xmas. told all the family members if they want to contribute they can. were gonna flip it into a cd at some point when it grows some. then he can get it when hes 18 to buy a car or towards college. want to teach him how to save because i wish i wouldve done so from a young age and not when i was 20.

TGilb2007 · 05-27-2007, 04:21 PM

crap, now that I am hearing this, i need to find something for my neice and nephew...

Drftpretty · 05-27-2007, 04:23 PM

My GF's son hated Tickle me Elmo extreme. It scares the **** outta him.

Get some kind of baby pool floatie thing. Those are badass!

This is what I do for my kids. $50 for birthdays, and $50 for christmas and then top it off with a small gift for them to play with.

My son has more money in the bank than I do, and my daughter is half way there. (she is a few years younger than he.).

For the nieces and nephews, they get savings bonds instead of savings accounts. I found some great ones that mature in just a year through state farm. Pay $50, and in a year get $100. I think you can buy up to $5000 at a time, but I don't remember.
