What to Get a 2 Month Old for Christmas
My little Zoe just turned 2 months old on the 11th of December. Christmas is a time of gift giving and seeing the joy in the little ones eyes as you give them a gift that they truly wanted. The problem is a 2 month old only wants 3 things: to eat, to sleep and to be changed. So, what do you buy for a 2 month old? People told me to get her clothes
since she doesn't care anyway. That is a nice suggestion, but it feels wrong, although she is not aware that Christmas is the time when she will make out like a bandit, it is known that children hate getting clothes
for Christmas. So, since it is her first Christmas and she is small I stuck to basic toys. There is this really adorable toy that I got her called Octotunes by Lamaze
It requires no batteries and he has the sweetest little face, it is an octopus that has horns for tentacles, you squeeze the horns and they play different notes. It comes with a song book and the tentacles are color coded. It truly is adorable. I also got her a Fisher Price Seahorse,
it plays music and her little tummy lights up. It is kind of like a glow worm. It is so cute and it is a toy that I think my little Zoe will enjoy through her entire babyhood. We, of course, got her clothes
as well, I just think that it is important to get her something that she will enjoy when she is a little older, or hopefully now. She does smile at stuff she likes. I also got her some books
, she likes it when I read to her. We don't have very many books
yet, but her favorite book so far is called Go Track a Yak
. The pictures are very rich and the rhyme scheme is easy to read aloud, and of course it has to do with a yak. That just makes it so much better. It can be tough to find stuff for a 2 month old because they can't really sit up on their own and they can't see very far. The best advice I have is to get something that you can play with for them. My Zoe hates tummy time so getting her stuff like that will just upset her, although she does enjoy her boppy
on occasion. She mostly likes to lay on her back and look up, though.
