It's will be my daughter's first Xmas this year and she will be 9 month old so it's just another day to her really, plenty of gifts/clothes already purchased by excited grandparents so not much need to buy her anything other than odd bits, is there something I can buy that will gather value over the years? Not wanting to put money into shares/bonds etc any ideas ?
