First Birthday Gift Ideas?

We just moved to a condo and have more space in the girls' room for a play area, and some empty space in our living room too. I want to get them something like a ball pit (probably don't want that in the living room though :)) or some kind of activity center. I seriously CANNOT wait to make them a play kitchen but I know at this age, they probably won't be super interested yet. Would you wait until 2 or 3 for this?

Any other ideas for an activity center type of gift? TIA!

Do you have the FP learning house or learning barn?  They're both big hits.  DS is 3.5 and will still play with it with dd.  If I remember correctly, we got ds the play kitchen for his first Christmas (he was 10 months then) and he grew into it.  We got dd a ball pit too, though I'm sure it's going to be a major mess maker that I will regret lol.

We gave our son a kitchen set for Christmas when he was 1 year and 3 months old.  I think it was good time, he played with it that first year and has since. He still loves the kitchen set.

Oh I ditto the Fisher Price barn!  I just bought it for DD today.  It was $45 at TRU but I did a price match for Wal-Marts price and got it for $30.  We also considered a nice ride on toy like the wheely bug.  DDs birthday is Dec. 31st sooooo right after Christmas...
