I would say SAVINGS BOND. This is what I am doing for all the children I know with upcoming birthdays and Holidays....and sometimes I add a cute outfit.

You can't go wrong!

I agree with the savings bond/money idea, but you also can't go wrong with a cute outfit from nordstroms or denny's etc.

That's a cute idea too!! However, I couldn't use that - there is no more room on my DS's (5 shelf) bookcase and he's only 4 months old....lol

For a 1st birthday I usually do a small gift and a GC to Stride Rite - that is just about when they need real shoes and they are soooo expensive. Even if they have enought shoes that currently fit, it won't last for long (about 3 months).

Another great gift is a GC for professional pictures somewhere.

I think this is a great idea!

Personally, I am not a fan of DS getting the savings bonds.

How about a monetary contribution to her college fund?

I agree! Especially at 1 because they don't really get the fun of opening presents yet.
