My mate's baby is due soon and I was thinking of getting them a few things. Something fun and bike related since he's into bikes too, and something else too.
I want to get one of those wooden push alongs and personalise it with the babies name etc, but the kid won't be able to use it till its older; and something more suitable for a baby that its mum will like too - shes not really into bikey things :o(
Any ideas?
They don't know the sex yet, but we know it'll be into bikes! 😈
Eh? So you want something bikey for the baby to use before it's capable of using something bikey? Either buy your mate a bike trailer or get over yourself and just buy a normal baby present, and save the bike stuff for it's second birthday.
It’s a present for the baby not the Dad, and far too soon for bike related gubbins really, plus I’m sure Daddy will want to be the one who chooses the first helmet/bike/etc…
Just get a toy for about £5-£6 and some suitably well thought out clothing for the future, i.e.if Baby is going to be 6 months old in winter get a jumper for a 6 month old, don’t bother buying newborn stuff, they will have about a billion bits of newborn clothing given them straight away…
Oh and get Dad the “Great lies to tell your kids” book…
Thanks for the tip for the book cookeaa! I'll be getting them some baby clothes anyway - saw some nice stuff in M&Ps and next.
Jason that is exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for, cheers
Jason do they do those in 38" chest?
🙂
<miser> £16!!!! He/She will only fit in it for 10 minutes... </miser>
Have a dig around, various friends made sure that little trb was kitted out with :
A baby grow from Poison Spider bikes in Moab (brought back from hols)
A vest stating "My dad says your bike sucks" (printed to order I believe, so that it matched my favourite riding socks)
A bib stating "Born to Trike"
You should be able to keep mum & dad happy if you look hard enough
These 2 things are well worth buying. Highly recommended.
