Oh Baby! New Baby Gifts

06/17/21 | All Things Baby, Dockatot, Freshly Picked, Gift Guide, Jellycat, Nordstrom, White Company

Since I started this blog in 2012 I have featured countless Gift Guides but today’s is a bout a new topic – new baby gifts.  Not only are many of my friends having kids but last month I planned a virtual baby shower for a coworker and not only did I put together the quiz and activity, I was also in charge of purchasing the gift.   and was in charge of purchasing gifts for a coworker on behalf of from 30 people.  Tricky as you want it to be personal but not too personal.

In general friends had terrific things. to say I also asked a few mom’s who recommended a whole bunch of things – the most common was diapers and wipes followed by bath time items like  bath supplies (shampoo etc), hooded baby towels, and washcloths.  Next came feeding supplies including bottles, pacifiers, muslims, and bibs.

And make sure not to forget the older kids if there are any.  The top recommendation was a wooden block kits  called the Loverly Block Set which is for kids 18 to 48+ month and has over 20 stage-based activity activities.  Then it was a , coloring books, or a Montessori play kitchen. Lastly, ideas for the mom included this Freshly Picked Mini Classic Diaper Backpack in Petal (so cute) and bath set for her  such as the Neal’s Yard Mother and Baby Collection.

 

Do you have any ideas for new baby gifts?

    Boyfriend buys me little Teddy Bears for me to sleep with when I am not around. My Daughter Cat sleeps with them and plays with them too.

    I have a store that will personally monogram a piggy bank. They’re absolutely adorable and I love to get gifts that they won’t outgrow or out use and remember me. These are a great selection for useful gifts so maybe one of each.
