Friends or relatives have just become parents and you would like to give the newborn a little present. But you can't find a gift idea for baby's birth! Whether you're looking for a must-have gift or a more original one, here are our ideas for a sure-fire way to please.
Birth gifts: the great classics
If you don't want to make a mistake, opt for the great classics that are always safe values.
Baby clothes
Layette is a birth gift that is always popular. Between pyjamas, bodysuits, little outfits and bras, baby fashion is full of cute pieces, each one cuter than the next. As for size, take a 6-month-old garment, as parents generally have a lot of 1 and 3-month-old garments.
Cuddly toys
Baby's first companion, the cuddly toy is an ideal birth gift. There are a multitude of them: flat cuddly toys, musical cuddly toys, plush toys... Choose a model that can be easily washed and in a soft and pleasant material.
Early-learning games
Rattles, imaginary books, manipulative books, mobiles, stacking blocks, activity mats, bath toys... All these toys will stimulate baby, develop his motor skills and help him to become more aware. This type of gift is a great success with baby, who will spend many hours having fun with the games.
Accessories personalised with the baby's name
Today it is possible to personalise objects with the child's first name or initials. Embroidered bath cape, engraved dummy clip, tableware or even a bib, this little attention will make your gift unique and even more precious.
A birth gift box
The birth gift set is a pretty gift box, made up of several essentials and available in different themes: care, meals, sleep, wake-up, layette, etc. You can, for example, give a birth gift set consisting of a bib, cutlery, a plate, a teething ring and a sippy cup, or another with a bath cape, bath toys, a small hairbrush and care products.
A little jewel
You can offer a pretty piece of jewellery engraved with the child's name that he or she will be able to keep throughout their life: a bracelet, a cord bracelet, a medal, a pendant...
Original birth gifts to stand out
For a change from traditional birth gifts, why not offer something more original?
A nappy cake
This is the perfect original gift for a birth! As the name suggests, it's a "cake" made up of several layers of disposable nappies but also various baby items such as a bodysuit, a cuddly toy, booties, a dummy... Useful and decorative, it will delight young parents.
Vouchers to give young parents time
The arrival of a baby is a big change in daily life and even if it is a wonderful experience, it is also very tiring! So to give young parents a break, offer them a little box with vouchers designed by you in which you offer your services: voucher for a romantic evening, voucher for an hour of baby-sitting, voucher for an hour of cleaning... Offering a little of your time so that they can take a break is the best gift you can give them!
A family photo session
There's nothing like a photo session with a professional to remember the first moments with baby forever. In a studio or at home, this gift will leave wonderful memories for the parents who can show the photos to their child when he or she grows up.
