Baby Shower Gift Ideas
Selecting a present for a new mom or dad can be a challenging
task. Baby showers are a great way to help support a new mother
with her new baby. New mothers can sign up at a gift registry to
avoid duplicate gifts and to indicate her gift preferences. Here
are some good gift ideas for baby showers:
1) Diapers - Diapers are a popular gift for baby showers. Every
new mother will need plenty of diapers for her new baby and this
is a very safe gift to get if you do not have any other ideas or
don't know what other people are getting.
2) Personalized Blanket - A personalized blanket is a nice gift
for a new baby. Having the name on the blanket gives it a
personal touch and makes it a great keepsake even after the baby
outgrows it.
3) Stuffed Animals - A new baby needs plenty of toys to stay
entertained. Stuffed animals are always a favorite among
newborns. A teddy bear is the most traditional gift, but other
stuffed animals are also acceptable gifts.
4) Baby Gift Baskets - Baby gift baskets can contain a wide
variety of baby supplies in them, including baby wipes, diapers,
clothes, and just about anything else that can fit. Gift baskets
can also be tailored to the new mother as a token of
appreciation. Such gifts can include gourmet foods, candles, and
other decorative keepsakes.
5) Baby Clothes - A new baby can never have too many clothes.
Clothes can come in a variety of styles and may include hats,
booties, and other accessories.
6) Baby Accessories - New babies require many accessories. Baby
bibs are popular as well as blankies. Other ideas include baby
bottles, pacifiers, and high chairs.
7) Shirts for Mom and Dad - T-shirts can be a nice gift for new
moms and dads. Some common sayings on these shirts are "New
Mommy" or "New Daddy". Some shirts also say "Mom to Be" or "Dad
to Be" - a way to let everyone know that a new child is on the
way.
8) Keepsakes - Various keepsakes will also make nice presents at
a baby shower. Baby picture frames can hold pictures of the new
baby or family for years to come. Other keepsakes include
figurines and decorative candles.
