Choosing Unique Baby Shower Gifts

How many baby showers have you been invited to over the past few years? Probably quite a few. Some may have been for close relatives, and others might include co-workers, friends, or friends of friends. Choosing the right gift can sometimes be difficult, especially if your sister is expecting, and you want to choose something really special and unique. Here are a few ideas to consider.

Personalized Gifts

Since many parents choose their baby’s name before it is born, a personalized gift can be a good choice. If you are crafty, knit or crochet a blanket with the baby’s initials or first name. There are a number of pattern books available that can show you exactly how to do this. This is definitely a one of a kind shower gift that the parents will treasure for many years.

Professional Baby Photos

Of course, the new mom and dad will constantly be taking pictures from the moment their little one enters the world. However, you can choose a good photographer, and give them a gift certificate for professional photos. When they are ready, they can take their baby to have photos made or a family portrait. This is a gift that will be greatly appreciated, because with the expense of a new baby, it might not be in their budget.

Music

Lullabies are one of the best ways to soothe little ones. It helps to keep them calm while they fall asleep. One gift that features a mother and baby and plays Brahm’s Lullaby is one of the willow tree figures provided by CoppinsGifts.com.

A Baby Bathtub

All new parents are worried when they give their baby the first bath. It can be difficult to hold on to a little one and wash them at the same. A baby bathtub, not the typical plastic type that is similar to seats or bouncers, can hold the baby and keep him or her from slipping. This type is made with soft mesh that is gentle on the newborn’s skin and allows the water to drain away from the baby.

These are just a few great ideas for unique baby shower gifts. Happy shopping!
