Gift ideas for the baby who has everything

My son will be a year in a few weeks. Everyone is asking for gift ideas, and I truly don't know what to suggest. He has plenty of clothes. He has tons of toys from my 4 y/o. Any ideas of what I can tell them to buy that I may not be thinking???

Memberships were my favorite, and if they are too pricey gift cards to play places or such. As well as magazine subscriptions you can get the learning box subscriptions and art box subscriptions. We loved Time for Tots
She can make any theme.

How do you go about requesting this? DS has way too many toys ( lots of unopened stuff), clothes galore ( he wears a 3t, and has clothes set through 5t), over 600 books. I just don't need anything else but have no idea how to request money for his acct.

Books
Personalized things like a puzzle or step stool
Boyish toys like a work bench. We actually got DD the bosch jr workbench for her first birthday
Stride rite gift cards since they go through a lot of shoes at that age

It's family. I just flat out say he has tons of toys etc but he does have a 529.

Now they just give us a check for it since we've had the 529 for almost 3 years.

I think it's tacky to request money.

Maybe make an Amazon wish list of stuff he likes and needs?

Re: Gift ideas for the baby who has everything

If it is the grandparents or aunts and uncles I think it is ok to say money for the college fund.

Personalized puzzle step stool
Gc to stride right
New utensils
