Baby shower present ideas for newborns
A baby shower can be a very personal and intimate moment in a new parent’s life. Especially when the new born is already here! Finding the right gift to bring along when you’ve been invited to this special occasion can be a big task. If you’re at a loss and unsure of what to give the new parents, we’ve got you covered with baby shower gift ideas for a new born that fit any budget.
Something to wear
You can never go wrong with cute baby clothes. But you might struggle a bit with figuring out the right size or colour. Aim for gender-neutral colours and buy a few sizes up. Babies vary greatly in size when they’re born. If you give something that’ll come in handy in six months’ time, it’ll get more use than premie or newborn clothes. New parents are often drowning in piles of laundry. Spare pyjamas, cute onesies and funny or cute bibs are always welcomed.
Something personal
If you already know the name of the baby, it’s your chance to give something personal that will become a keepsake. Our personalised baby gift hampers come with the right mix of items for boys and girls. This bundle includes our most popular products: a personalised knitted blanket, a personalised muslin wrap, a bunny baby comforter and personalised white baby shoes. The baby’s name is embroidered and will feel quite unique to the receiving parents. It’s a keepsake that will be treasured for a long time.
Something to read
Books are always a great idea. They provide hours of fun and can also be passed on to siblings once they’ve outgrown some stories. Reading books with a baby is an easy and relaxing way to bond with them and many books are just as enjoyable for the parents as they are for their child. You can’t go wrong with sentimental classics like Guess How Much I Love You, The Giving Tree, Love You Forever, Goodnight Moon or Oh The Places You Will Go!
Something practical
New parents need quite a bit of practical gear to help them in the first few months of their baby’s life. While some of the presents may seem boring, they are lifesaving during the first few months of a baby’s life. It can range from useful things like nappies and wet wipes. Or choose something a bit more unique like a personalised hooded towel to keep bub warm after their bath. Practical presents help parents go about their daily routine and can put a smile on their faces while doing the most menial task. They’ll remember the people who love them through these thoughtful gifts while taking care of the nitty-gritty of their newborn’s day.
