How to choose the best gifts for a baby shower or new baby
Baby showers are a really important occasion in parents’ lives, and the gifts go a long way in making that time special for mums and dads. There are a few different options for baby shower presents that you can choose from if you’re not sure what to get.
Something practical. Although new babies are a blessing, they can also cause a lot of stress. Opting for a practical gift for the baby is usually a good choice and will be appreciated by parents. Options include bottles, carry bags, etc.
Something for mum. People usually get so caught up buying cute, tiny clothes for the baby that they forget mum needs things too. Something to spoil a new mum, such as clothes or a nice massage, are a great option.
Something cute. This is a popular choice because cute products are so fun to shop for. Cute presents are always winners at baby showers and there is no shortage of options— think clothes, baby shoes, muslin wraps, or soft toys.
