sibling gift for when the new baby arrives...ideas?

edited October 2011 in Parenting
I'm not sure what to get our (almost) 20 month old daughter for when her little sis arrives in 21 days. She'll be 20.5 months if #2 arrives as planned. I was thinking a baby doll, but she already has 2 baby dolls. I do have a Big Sis shirt for her and a couple Big Sister books. Any other suggestions?

  • We gave our daughter a baby doll when our son was born. She was about the same age as yours will be. This time our daughter is over 6 and our son over 4, so really don't know this time either.
  • For my daughter i got her a dora toy that says big sister and the big sister book. And then for my son since he is the oldest and has been through this before and already has the big brother book and what not i just got him a fun car toy and a book that if would like. My daughter is 3 and my son is 5 and i found it hard to find things that said big brother or sister on them till the other day. The dora toy has dora and then the baby twins with a crib. Its cute and works for this occasion!
  • Im not sure but I have a daughter due in 12 days and never really thought to get the siblings a gift...
  • Can you get her like a pram and stuff for her dolls so she can copy you? And maybe write her a letter from the New baby?
  • I got my son a couple of really cute handmade hand puppets so he can tell the baby stories.
  • I'm going to just buy my kids a toy. My son is four and likes Thomas the train and Batman so I will find something. And my daughter is three and loves animals so I will just get her a stuffed one. I know another good idea is if your kids are a little older you could get them a disposable camera, so they can take pic
