Children develop at a rapid pace in the early years and so do their preferences - so it can be tricky to know what to give children as gifts based on their age. What is reasonable to wrap for a small baby? And what's suitable for a 1-year-old? Here we have collected the best gift tips!

Is there anything more wonderful than children's parties, baby showers or generally when you get together to give a gift to a child? Maybe it's extra cozy because all the baby stuff is so cute and because the face of a child who gets to open a package is unbeatable. But what should you actually give to ensure that the gift is well received and appreciated?

What children like to play with is individual, but there are recommendations based on the child's age if you want to be on the safe side!
