Help with Christmas gift idea for my son

Posted by on Nov. 24, 2009 at 6:00 AM

My 21mo old (almost 22mo) son has become VERY loving lately. He loves to play with his older sisters' baby dolls and stuffed animals (when Daddy is gone). He will hold them, rock them, kiss them, "burp" them, squeeze them, you name it he does it and in the gentlest way possible. I want to buy him a doll or something like that but DH says NO NO NO, he is a boy, boys dont play with dolls, blah blah blah. I know back when I was a kid they had My Buddy "dolls" for little boys. So if anyone can help me with an idea for a "doll" for him I would really appreciate it!

Thanks

My sons have the boy baby born doll that swims... Its pretty neat because he swims around the tub, and pool. Also maybe those rescue pets they have ones that come with baby bottles, and stuff. Like take care of me baby puppy type deal... Theres nothing wrong with a little boy learning to be a good dad!

(This is the swimming one my sons have)

My son is ALL boy! He is a terror, he climbs on things, breaks things, etc. He is getting a bunch of cars, trucks, tractors, blocks, balls, etc for Christmas but I would love for him to have a toy that he can "love on" while he is still interested.

He is still a baby and I think he has plenty of time to have "boy toys"!
