Mums that already have other kids - what are the must haves for Xmas for a a child 6months +

I want to get my LO a high chair and bits they will need for 6 months plus for Xmas, but there’s soo many toys about I’m not sure what’s best and don’t have much space so I don’t want to end up with loads of pointless toys?

Hypothetically speaking: how would you respond if you school age child tells you last second “I have a project due tomorrow and…I need xyz supplies and some help.” This was assigned a week or 2 ago.

I have a two month old and was wondering when would be the best time to start baby classes and what kind of classes? We don’t have a routine yet so wanted to know what other mums are doing? I also feel slightly anxious too as I’m worried he might start crying during the classes.
