For expecting parents, all baby gifts can be practical, including toys, clothes, and games. All baby shower gifts can help expecting parents prepare for their new baby.
Shower gifts specifically for the new baby can include playmats, toy sets, books in a box, mobiles, and crib toys to help the baby sleep better. We carry crib toys that make heartbeat and womb sounds to make the baby feel more secure and sleep better. We also carry specific toys and games meant for bath time to help the baby get used to water. In addition, most of our toys are made for learning developmental skills and combine bright colors and many textures and sounds. Many of these types of toys can be gifts for a baby shower, even if no one knows if the baby will be a girl or a boy.
Aside from educational and learning toys, other important baby shower gifts are clothes for newborns to six months. We carry clothing gifts for baby boys and girls, including hats, sweaters, rompers, booties, and socks. One all-inclusive shower gift is the “Patty Cake” gift sets designed for boys and girls. The gift set includes bibs, booties, a cap, burp cloths, a bodysuit, and boxes for storage.
Expecting parents also need to be prepared, and some baby shower gift ideas include kits to help them get ready for the new baby. Some developmental theories indicate that exposing the baby to sound and language while in the womb helps with learning. We carry some prenatal gifts to introduce the baby to sequential learning and language while in the womb. We also carry materials for expecting parents, such as The GoodFather CD-ROM set for expecting fathers. But, for after the baby arrives, a growth chart and the Itzbeen Baby Care Timer will help monitor the baby’s growth and communicate its needs.
