He's been crawling for a while and can pull himself up against things and stand. He seems to not really have any interest in his toys and prefers crawling around all day looking at bits of fluff on the floor.
Answer
Sounds normal enough, do you sit on the floor & play with him? This is very important you can't expect him to play with the toys himself he will follow your lead. What toys does he have? Kids this age love things they can push button on & that jangle & make noises.

What to get a 1-year-old for birthday that isn't a toy?

My godson's 1st birthday is approaching and I am having a hard time thinking of a gift. His parents are very smart rummage sale shoppers so he has more than enough clothes and toys - even things for when he is several years older. I thought of a savings bond but that is more than I am able to spend right now. Any ideas?
Answer
You know, some kids seem to have all the toys in the world but they don't have the one thing they really, really want and would love. Him being only 1 though, that's going to be tough to determine since you can't just ask him.
At that age, ride on toys for outside are a huge hit.
So are sandboxes and water toys (kid sprinkler, water mat, sand and water table, etc.)
A ball popper is also a very huge hit.
So are paints.
If he doesn't have any of these, they are a "must have" toy for a 1 yr old. Age 1-2 is all about the senses, and water, sand and speed are the biggest hits!
Also, some kids may have all the clothes they will ever need, but if they really, really, REALLY want that spiderman costume or PJ set or hat, but mommy can't afford it (let's face it - dress up and character clothes are WAY expensive) he probably doesn't have it.
For non-toys and non-clothes:
books
toothbrush and toothpaste
first piggy bank
room decor: glow-in-the-dark stars/planets for the ceiling or a cute lamp or pillow
