The Ultimate Baby Shower Gift Ideas List
Baby Shower Gifts
Shopping for baby shower gifts is always a fun task. The excitement of a new bundle of joy entering the world is at its peak by the time the baby shower rolls around. Now you can finally buy the gleaming parents that perfect gift!
When picking out the perfect baby shower gift, keep in mind that your gift should be useful. If you are already a parent, think about what helped you bring your bundle into this world. Gifts that help parents remember this huge event are always great ideas too.
Baby Socks: Parents already know this… baby’s lose socks all of the time. Keeping a set of cute ones on hand is always a good idea. These baby socks look like tennis shoes and are just too adorable!
Baby Shoes: Baby shoes are downright cute! There are little sneakers, sandals, and even dress up shoes for baby’s itty bitty feet! Perfect to pair with the socks listed above!
Hand & Footprint Frame: Remember how tiny baby’s hands and feet were when they made their debut into this world. It also has two picture frames to keep baby’s first photos.
Silver Settings for Baby: These heirloom spoons, bowls, make the perfect baby shower gift. Families will keep these items and pass them down for years to come.
Baby Safe Ink Pads: Use these stamp pads to make your very own baby hands and feet print. Add some nice stationary or shadow box to the baby shower gift to give mom and dad a way to create their own memento.
Baby & Toddler Books: Reading to babies sets a foundation that will create a thirst for knowledge. Grab a couple baby books to help start the love for learning early! Some of our favorites are The Wonderful Things You Will Be, Moo Baa La La La, and Goodnight Moon. A set of Dr. Suess books or Beatrix Potter books would be a great gift too.
Five Little Monkeys Gift Basket: This adorable gift includes a plush monkey with banana, blanket, basket, and a door hanger for baby’s room. You can also pair this gift basket with the book Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.
Letters to My Baby: Mom can write all her dreams, wishes, and memories to baby with this heirloom gift. Seal up the letters and gift them to the baby once she is grown. What a lovely idea… this would work really well for grandparents too.
Baby Einstein Sea Dreams Soother: Babies sleep so much better when there is white noise. This soother has several white noise options from classical music to ocean waves splashing. There is also an option to turn the lights on or off. Perfect for when baby grows and can appreciate the sea creatures swimming around.
Hooded Towels & Bath Robes: Baby will need something warm and soft after bath time. Any of these options would make a great baby shower gift. One of my favorites is this Lobster Hooded towel. There are so many to choose from!
Photo Albums: I can hear the snaps of photos being taken now. They never stop because these babies grow so fast! A photo album is a great way to keep all of those precious photos safe and in one place.
Amazon Gift Card: Lets face it… this place has everything a new parent could ask for. Gifting a gift card is a great way to let the parents pick out exactly what they need for baby. You can even buy one for baby and one for mom so she can get something she needs as well.
As we mentioned in our Bridal Shower Gift Post, to step up your baby shower gift game, try making your own gift basket. Gather a few of your favorite gifts and place them inside of a basket. Wrap the basket with a big bow, and you’re good to go!
