Turning 1 is definitely a milestone in anyone's calendar and giving a birthday gift especially for this momentous occasion needs careful planning and attention. So what do you give as a birthday gift for someone who just turned 1?  Here are some fantastic gift suggestions that will please not just the little tot but the adults as well.

1. Share of Stock ' Baby right now won't be able to appreciate your birthday gift for what it is (he or she might even think it's a paper chew toy) but he or she will definitely appreciate it once he or she is older and the stock value has risen already. Shares of stock are great 1st birthday gifts because they will grow as the child grows. Of course, choose blue chip stocks or stocks that you foresee as stable in the long run. If you want to buy just one share, companies like Disney offer this kind and it is definitely good value for money as a birthday gift.
2. Educational toys ' Toys that teach baby to count, distinguish colours and shapes, or identify the alphabet are really great birthday gifts for one-year olds. Just make sure that the toys you buy are non-toxic and are not made from very hard and sharp materials that can cause bumps, bruises, and scratches. Remember these tots don't have much control yet so safety should really be a main feature when thinking of giving toys as birthday gifts.
3. Statement Shirts ' Shirts with animal or shape prints are cute but statement shirts for one-year old tots are definitely cuter! Up the coolness factor of your birthday gift by giving witty statement shirts to the birthday boy or girl. It does not hurt to start them young when it comes to fashion right?

In any which way, no matter what you give, it is actually your intention in giving the gift that counts. So just make sure that you have the baby's interest at heart and you're on your way to giving the best 1st birthday gift ever.
