So, I bet you’re all wondering what we’re getting The Babito for his birthday this year. I’m glad you asked, but first you have to promise not to tell him.
Agreed? Ok, I’ll tell you.
His big gift this year is a Schwinn Roadster Tricycle. He’s just now learning how to pedal his current tricycle, which is an old hand-me-down model that’s past its prime. This shiny new model will be quite the nice replacement. He’ll be riding in style now. The new trike features a low center of gravity, air-filled rubber tires, a real wooden deck on back with the burned-in Schwinn logo, and a bell and tassels on the handlebars. He’s going to LOVE IT!
We also got him a Fisher-Price Pirate Ship. He’s fascinated by pirates (he was a pirate last year for Christmas and he loves riding Pirates at Disneyland). He’ll love playing with this ship, and he’ll have plenty to do. He can lower the ship’s sails, drop the anchor, and fire the three cannons. It even features a plank that he can make the pirates walk. Another cool thing about ordering this ship from Amazon is that it comes in “Frustration-Free Packaging,” which means no plastic bindings or wire ties. According to Amazon, this packaging eliminates 36 inches of plastic coated wire ties, 1,576.5 square inches of printed corrugated package inserts, and 36.1 square inches of printed folding carton materials.
His last gift is the Melissa and Doug Ice Cream Parlor Set. The Babito loves playing in his little kitchen, and he already has a few of the other Melissa and Doug wooden food sets, including the birthday cake set and the sandwich set. He’ll have a lot of fun serving us wooden ice cream, and it’ll give him lots of practice for when he gets older and we ask him to serve us real ice cream.
Now don’t go telling him what we got him, ok?

Aww, how fun! Great choices!
My little cousin has one of those wooden food sets, but it’s a pizza with all of the different interchangeable toppings. Very cute.
Hope the Babito has a fantastic birthday

The pirate ship totally rocks, I got one for my godson and can’t wait for my son to be old enough so I can get him one. The bike, obviously is very cool and we love the Melissa and Doug stuff. Well done Dad!

That is a hefty pirate’s haul of loot! My kids loved their play kitchen when they were little. One of my daughters put a glass of milk in her play refrigerator once, and I found it by the smell.
