Baby Shower Gift Ideas
Written by: TheCelebrityCafe.com Staff
Want to bring the best gift to a baby shower? Want everyone to say who got that really cool item? Here is a list of the newest and coolest that make, in our opinion, great baby shower gifts.
Welcome Baby Kit
When the baby reaches the six-month milestone more stimulation is permitted and this is where the Welcome Baby Kit comes into play. By now baby internal machinery should be producing more waste material in a heartier color and stench. It also is going to irritate baby's bottom in a most ambitious fashion and you must fight that irritation in a most ambitious fashion. The babybottom balm is for just the right moment for baby like after the hose down in the kitchen sink. As with most of the Bettijo products, the all-natural ingredients make for a healthier baby but just reading them can cause a weight gain. In fact, apply to baby after dinner or you go nuts between the ingredients and the smell. I wonder if they could make any products with a pizza smell. The kit also includes Jack Moore's "97 Ways to Make a Baby Laugh". This is for the parent to read to the baby. They won't know what you are talking about but they will like your voice and the parent may get an idea or two about relaxing.
Doctor Bobby
Kids Skin Care
A doctor and a mom got together to formulate skin care products for kids. While there are preservatives in them, the company is working to get them out and keep the goodness in! Shampoo, hand wash, body wash and moisturizing cream along with an itch cream are an innovative way to remind kids of proper health habits. If another reminder is needed, there is a toy doctor's bag that can be colored with washable markers. The bag is large enough to hold all Doctor Bobby's products and yet small enough to put in the bathroom on a shelf. Healthy living always makes one special.
Pure Digital Technologies
At first glance taking a video is common on digital cameras, however in this case the design of the Point and Shoot Video Camcorder makes it super easy. Since you are not pushing down, the first frames come out just as in-focus as the last. The 30-minute video time is still a little too short to take with you on an all day trip unless your laptop is near but for quick situations it can come in handy. The monitor is clear and ease of use is perfect. Compact and easy to use, good clarity: that basically fits my bill.
Bloomers Baby Diaper Cakes
Imagine a three-tier wedding cake decorated with deeply colored artificial flowers. Now imagine the cake is made out of diapers! Beautiful! Great! This is a refreshingly creative idea! The description is simple but the visual effect is a knockout! Check out the Western Theme with the bright red roses and ribbon to match. Mom and dad need the Stage 1 diapers for the newborn and this is both a way to provide for them and give a centerpiece for the baby shower. The large size is designed with three tiers and 100 diapers while the small is two tiers with 40 diapers. I suggest you go for the large size because the three-tier look is really impressive.
Wendy Bellissimo
All mothers know about the small items that new moms need but are too harried to think of after baby arrives. It's the variety of the gifts that makes the fun happen. Look over Wendy's product line. Start with a Moses Basket and fill it liberally with those needed-back-of-the-brain ideas that were filed away until next time. "Sweet Baby Memories" is a mommy scrapbook for those intimate memories that all mommies share with their children "when the time is right". How about adding a little plush toy for baby and a soft layette that says, "special is defined by my child"? The needed but often forgotten Dreft detergent for baby soft clothes, baby clean is also included. Of course, there is the must have Swaddlers New Baby Pampers and if there is room add the Pampers Sensitive wipes. They are convenient, safer and healthier to use rather than a washcloth. Because you don't have to leave the baby alone to rinse them just throw them out.
It's My Binky
Basically we're talking about a typical baby pacifier with a sanitary cap, personalized with the baby's name. The personalization is great especially when there are several kids in the same spot. With my baby, I couldn't tell which pacifier belonged to whom, and they could have had cooties or some mouth fungus that might have gone to my baby. The protective cap is great because no matter how well intentioned, the binky always winds up in the pocket picking up the hair, fur, crumbs and whatever else is at the bottom. The bottom line is that life can be disgusting, let's keep baby a little safer as long as we can.
Hand Painted Ornaments
Ornaments are for windows, trees, room corners or anywhere else that needs a quiet little perk-up. Here is an opportunity for a gift that will be part of the family tradition for many years. Imagine you're a little one opening a gift specially made for them. Hold on to the packaging, because this event is to happen again and again until it is part of their tradition and they have children. So many memories in one little ornament. Family traditions and heirlooms can be created, so chose yours wisely.
Bon Bebe
For my baby I want bright colors, a soft feel and easy to open clothing for diaper changing. The added perk of mitts or a hood is nice but not necessary. The cost has to be low and the material endurance high. Yes I am a cheap bastard! My child will be cheap too or maybe thrifty at a minimum. The point is that dresses or coveralls with cutesy ducks, flowers or even the picture of a pizza won't make my kid buy it, I have to be happy. I want it soft to my cheek when I hug the baby. Oh the newborn blankets fit my bill and I particularly like the nite nite design with stars.
Dazzle Wrap Next Generation of Gift Wrap
Imagine a giant clam that consumes your gift. Then imagine it lights up. There you have it! "The gift in a gift," is a unique storage container for the dull desktop or bureau. In short, your gift is "presented by its wrapping". The advertising compares the style as reminiscent of an Asian lantern with its colors and shape but I would rather compare it to the Australian Opera house that you don't have to travel in a plane to see. Available across the country by Internet, there is no excuse for your gift to whimper, "I love you" when it can shout "Baby I'm yours!"
PeakUniques.com
Original clothing gear for the little one in your life and I mean the baby. From the monkey-toes hand painted canvas sneakers to the socially aware onesies that say "Olive You" or "Peace Baby". Bright colors, artistic designs to stimulate the babies mind and attract the eyes. I particularly liked the JP Lizzy Chocolate Ice Tote Set. The word Chocolate Ice refers to the color, so stay cool, there's no food in here. But there are little matching bags to carry the 101 things that baby needs, including a changing pad that can protect their head and back. And even with all that, there is still room to store enough diapers for a special weekend away. Wink! Wink! And isn't that the reason why we are buying this diaper bag?
Motherlove Baby Gift Box
This beautiful gift box includes an organic t-shirt for baby as well as some of Motherlove's great products including Baby Me Bath, Birth & Baby Massage Oil, Spritzer and Diaper Rash & Thrush Relief. These products are made with only the highest quality ingredients and are free of preservatives. Their Web site also offers some great information as well as other great gift sets.
Fire-Safe
SentrySafe
I would never have thought it but Sentry came up with a solid idea for a baby shower gift. Use the security safe as a gift basket. Protect your valuable papers like you protect your baby. I’m sure it will be a bit unexpected but with unexpected comes the topic of discussion even after the baby was born. The safe itself can be just as much of the topic as the insides. “Oooh, look at that design. Insulation that keeps the contents cool in a “typical” fire so as not to burn” So now baby’s birth certificate can survive the worst while baby is outside watching from a safe distance. Overall, a much more unique idea than the typical gift.
Burp Catcher
Dear new parents, your mothers and fathers never told that what goes down must come up and usually it splatters all over. Lets face it, your new at this and don’t how much to feed the baby. You think their happy when they are eating but you don’t know when to stop feeding! So that in about five minutes after the baby finally stops eating, you place them on your shoulder and then the burp explosion occurs. Liquid masses of something smelly and stench-filled flows out of the baby’s mouth and the new parents say “Oooh the baby”. They say it nicely not to scare the baby but the person holding the baby is dying. Catch the burp splatter and save a life.
