There are two kinds of gifts you can give to a new baby; something that will please the parents and something that will please the baby. Both kinds of baby gifts are welcome and you might consider choosing one of each. Parents need all the help they can get, even if it isn’t their first child but there is nothing so rewarding as to make a baby smile and there are simple squeeze toys, soft, cuddly toys and musical toys that will do just that.
More for the parents than the baby are kits that come packed with things they need. They usually have bottles, bibs, towels, a pacifier some baby soap and shampoo, a comb and brush, powder, baby oil and sleepers. Sometimes they have a cute rattle or squeeze toy to entertain the baby. Any baby care products along with a baby bath tub would also be welcomed. These baby gifts are appreciated by the parents because there are never enough towels or baby soap. A breast pump is also a good gift for the parents of a newborn. This will allow a nursing mother to save milk for a later feeding so she can go out for a while.
Clothes for infants come in a wide variety of styles and are the most common baby gifts. For boys it is no longer enough to get something blue. There are cowboy outfits, tuxedos, sailor suits and sports outfits and for girls, pink is just the beginning. Ballerina, princess, Ladybug, butterfly and many other cute motifs for girls and all of these are available in jumpsuits, T-shirts and sleepers. Even booties look like real shoes with running shoes, dance slippers, tennis shoes and much more. One good thing about giving clothes as a gift to a newborn; if you give something that is too big; it can still be used when the child grows into it. Another good thing is, clothes are always needed because babies grow out of them fast or they get washed so many times they look ragged.
You could be creative and try for something completely unique. Make a baby bag for going shopping, to the park or to visit friends and family. You could add bottles, wet-wipes, disposable diapers, a sweater and blankets and toys suitable for travel. Everything could be put in an attractive carrying bag that the mother may like long after the baby can carry his or her own bag. After you have selected baby gifts that please the parents look for a few that may bring a smile to the baby’s face.
Another idea for baby gifts is to help decorate the baby’s room. Large colorful posters are good for near the bath or changing table. They attract the attention of the baby so mother or father can get on with the cleaning. Mobiles above the crib are also great fun. Some move and have music boxes to delight the child. If you have the skill or know someone who does, and is willing, paint a mural on the wall of the baby’s room. |
