Birthday presents

Ok so my son is turning 1 in September which also means that all the babies in my mothers group are turning 1 over the next month, around 15 babies = 15 birthday parties. The first party is tomorrow and we went to target today and I found a cute little outfit for $20. But it has just dawned on me if we do this every time it will be over $300 on presents and cards for all the babies. Pair that with my own sons birthday party and presents we are going to be up for a fortune.

I've had this problem before, for girls i normally go to a cheap shop and buy them a little handbag and maybe a few hairclips or even a necklace, but boys are hard... But sometimes you can get them little plastic trucks, fairly good quality ones that don't fall apart for around $5-$10. Also bubbles are great and kids have hours of fun with bubbles an they're cheap!

I have been buying bath toys for the little ones I know. Big W and the like have cheap ones, granted I don't have 15 to buy for.

If it was me I'd be a tight ass and take the 'I won't be buying anyone gifts because it's very costly so please don't buy for my child' line. But that might get people off side.

I'd go to K-mart! So much cheaper. Could get some bath time books or something like that.

Why don't u speak with some of the other mums and all put in $$ for a bigger present?! I think given the circumstances it's quite an acceptable thing to do! If not photo frames (reject shop) and as pp said books!

Hope that helps!

Go to kmart you can find awesome clothes, things for the babies at as low as 3 bucks and u can't even tell the quality I think better than target!!! Good luck!!!

Books, you can get them from Kmart usually very cheap and most people think they are a good pressie.

I am never throwing my son a big party again. We are literally spending over 1k and I’m so stressed. I did not want to spend this much money

I don't believe in first birthday parties for babies my opinion is its dumb and unnecessary

carmek @avianlouiebos, realize this isn’t just about you and what you want. You have a son now, him
courtneyxa Wtf lol all these replies. I kind of agree with @avianlouiebos I mean how many of you
massmomma16 @courtneyxa, but you will be showing acknowledgement for your baby birthday makes it different. This girl said
