Baby stuff is adorable. Cutesy newborn outfits, big-eyed plush toys—they make us melt. Which makes babies the easiest family members to buy gifts for. But if this is baby’s first holiday season, chances are she has no idea what you are giving her, much less that it is a present from you. So, the question becomes not what gift to give, but how to give one that counts? The answer—get baby stuff that mom will appreciate! Here are a few ideas:
Baby blankies are soft and cuddly and cute, but moms know they are virtually useless for nap times. Little ones like to move around in their sleep, and ordinary blankets can go from comforting to suffocating in the flick of a foot. So, besides layering a few onesies and turning up the heat, how else can mommies keep babies cozy in their sleep? With this Aden + Anais Classic Sleeping Bag! Made from 100% cotton muslin, this charming rag-doll-patterned sleep sack is not just safe and breathable, but also warm and comfortable. Mom Loves It + Baby Loves It = Great Gift.
A new mom spends a lot of time in her baby’s room—nursing him, comforting him, rocking him to sleep… And while his face might be the most beautiful thing she’s ever seen, her eyes occasionally wonder. Put a Sweet Gumball on the nursery wall and give mom (and baby) a heart-warming sight for her weary eyes. Choose from a number of handmade, heartfelt pieces, like the two turned leaves shaping a heart, or the thistle that looks like a sparkler, or the spiral that simply repeats “i make a wish for you”. It’s pretty. It’s powerful. It’s a picture-perfect gift.
Try as you might, you can’t keep socks on baby feet. Tight velcro and elastic shoes occasionally do the trick, but they can be uncomfortable and usually just end up on the floor along with the socks. Make baby’s momma happy with MilkBarn’s Footed Pants! These stylish baby threads are a much comfier and surer way to keep baby’s tootsies toasty. Plus, they’re made from organic cotton and come in eight super cool patterns. Keep baby warm; make mommy happy. Everybody wins!
