DD will be 6 months at christmas. Much to little for chocolate, so i thought about doing her a little gift calendar instead.
I was thinking, head bands, ties, clips, bibs. But thats all i have. I need some ideas.

Her stocking will have weaning bits in so would like to avoid that if possible.
 
Hmm, things for the bath? Like little rubber ducks (6 for £1 at Poundland, could put in a few over the month), a few foam letters? Little cars (not chokeable size obviously but an easy size for a baby to hold), small pots of bubbles (my LO's both loved bubbles at that age), plastic or wooden farm animals (I've seen individual plastic farm animals for 75p somewhere although I can't remember where!), small wooden trains (I saw some in Wilko's for £1 yesterday!), a bell (both of my LO's were mad for bells as babies, hours of fun for 50p from a craft shop), a little bag of torn up coloured tissue or crepe paper (again, at 6 months my LO's both enjoyed lying on their backs/sitting while I sprinkled tissue paper confetti over them, fun sensory activity), little wooden dolls (I got 6 for £4 from ELC a while back, you could put a few in over the month maybe), a little ball (like one of the plastic ball pool balls everyone with a toddler seems to have :haha:)?
 
What about a book advent? I did one a couple of years ago and although took a while to get the books together they all come out every year as favourites, mine were all Christmas ones but they don't have to be :flower:
 
Brilliant ideas. Been meaning to make her a sensory box so thats a great idea.
We had a book advent last year and ut was such a hit with DS. He loved it. So will deffo be having another this year. But i may add a couple if feely feely books for DDs calendar.

Thanks.
