No CommentsA Gift Buying Guide For Baby Showers
If someone you know is having a baby shower, gifts buying will no doubt be top of your agenda as you prepare for the shower. No matter how confused you are about what to get for the new mommy and her baby, never scrimp on the gift giving. It’s tacky. Besides, a shower is the perfect time for friends and family to gift the new mommy things that she will need once the baby’s born. Here are a few options that are always received with delight:
Baby Toys: You just can’t go wrong with soft and cuddly baby toys. Plush baby toys made of soft and snuggly plush or velour are soft enough for an infant to hold without injuring himself. When in doubt, stick to stuffed animals and teddy bears. If you’d like to make a statement, gift eco friendly wooden toys. These are pricier but will be far from run of the mill, and show that you care about her baby’s safety since they are free from the toxins present in plastic toys. Choose from rattles, stacking toys and other organic wooden toys that are safe on the environment and safe on baby.
Remember to buy only age appropriate toys. In other words, anything that’s appropriate for a child under the age of one year is fine. Leave the puzzles, more advanced toys and games out of your list.
Essentials: Every Mommy will appreciate a baby shower gift that contains the little necessities for her new born baby. Diapers are top of the list and even if it seems strange to be gifting diapers, it doesn’t have to be. The mother to be will thank you for your consideration specially when it’s 3 am in the morning and she’s out of diapers. Baby bottles, bibs, pacifiers, are all gifts that are practical and will be appreciated by all mommies.
Clothes: Which Mommy wouldn’t like to receive cute zero size T-shirts and shorts for her mini me? Baby girl or boy clothes are an ever popular gift. To make sure your gift lasts really long, buy a size that’s will last longer, at least until baby is a few months old. Chances are the mother will already have a stash of size zero clothes for baby’s first few weeks. But once baby starts outgrowing those clothes, she’ going to need larger sizes and your gift will come in handy.
Gift Certificates: This would be a really thoughtful gift for Mommy. Chances are that she didn’t receive everything that she would have liked for her baby, and a baby gifts certificate makes it possible for the parents to go out and buy whatever they want.
