Customer Love

We received your Baby's First Library Gift Basket when our daughter was born and it was my favourite gift. It was so beautifully presented and the books themselves are just gorgeous. A great idea for a gift! Do you have a basket for one-year-olds?

Sarah, mum to Connie

Your gift baskets are now my go-to gift when someone has a baby. The books in the Baby's First Library Gift Basket are the books my wife and I loved reading to our kids when they were small. Brings back all the memories. Great choices!
Andrew

Reading is so important and such a joy and I'm all for starting to read aloud as early as possible. Your gift baskets are just beautiful and are always received with lots of wows! I've just ordered my fourth, this time for a new little one-year-old.

If you're looking for a fantastic gift for a 1-year-old, we have a special gift basket just for you.

A well-chosen collection of books is absolutely the best gift you can give a child and the books in our Captivating Books for 1-Year-Olds Gift Basket have been carefully chosen to delight little ones in their second year of life and to enhance brain development by providing a variety of listening experiences. The emphasis is on the rhyme, rhythmic language and repetition which one-year-olds love so much and which is so important for stimulating their love of language and their awareness of how language works.

Your Captivating Books for 1-Year-olds Gift Basket contains the following books:

  • Dear Zoo: a lift-the-flap book about the animals the zoo sends in response to a child's request for a pet;
  • Where's Spot? a playful lift-the-flap board book about a mischievous puppy;
  • Goodnight Moon: a classic book about a little rabbit saying goodnight to all the things in his room;
  • Where is the Green Sheep? a rhyming quest for the missing green sheep hilariously illustrated by Judy Horacek;
  • Little Bear, where are you? 1-year-olds discover a new animal and their own faces through the mirrors on each page;
  • The Baby's Catalogue: a classic word book, charmingly illustrated with all the things a baby sees in their day;
  • Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes: a poem of love to babies around the world written in gentle, rhyming verse;

Please note that the book cover images shown here may differ to those in the basket depending on the print edition.

A super-cute Mani the Monkey soft toy is great for little hands to hold while reading the books.

Our signature gift baskets are sturdy, practical and beautiful and the perfect place to store this collection of books so that they can be kept tidy and close-at-hand for your one-year-old to explore at will.

MATERIALS

Our beautiful baskets are made especially for The Book Basket Company to our specifications and are sturdy enough to stand up to a bit of less-than-gentle handling from little ones. The cute liners are sewn for us in Canberra by a lovely lady who operates her small business from home.

Basket: white-painted cane
Basket liner: 100% cotton
Mini Mani Monkey: cotton/polyester blend

CARE GUIDE

Your Captivating Books for 1-Year-Olds Gift Basket is designed to stand up to normal wear-and-tear and to handling by young children:

Basket: wipe gently with a damp cloth.
Liner: wash gently in cold water, if needed. Line dry. Do not tumble dry as the cotton will shrink.
Mini Mani the Monkey: spot clean with a damp cloth to remove any marks. Can be hand-washed in cold water or on the gentle cycle in your washing machine. Air dry.

Books: board books are designed to be handled by babies and small children and we encourage this as it’s an important part of how little ones get to know and love books. Yes, the books are likely to become a bit worn but we think that’s OK. We suggest being a bit careful with When We Were Very Young and The Tale of Peter Rabbit as these are not board books. You may like to keep them out of reach of the under-2s, to be shared as read-alouds with Mum or Dad.

Our gift baskets are shrink-wrapped to prevent the books moving around in transit. Each gift basket is protected by a layer of biodegradable, eco-friendly fill inside its shipping box:

Basket (empty): 23cm x 23cm x 14cm (height)
Basket (with books): 23cm x 23cm x 21cm (height)

GUARANTEE

We’re sure you and the little bookworm in your life will love your Captivating Books for 1-Year-Olds Gift Basket but if for any reason you don’t please don’t worry. You can return your gift basket, no questions asked, and we’ll give you a full refund, including postage.
