Best Baby Shower Gifts

Deciding upon a gift for a baby shower, can be a nail biting experience, because the giver ultimately wants to give the best baby shower gift that they possibly can.

When a person receives an invitation to a baby shower, the first step should be to find out if the person the shower is for has registered anywhere. Baby shower registries work just like wedding registries do. If the person having (or adopting) the baby has registered, it takes most of the work and worry out of the gift selection. The baby gift registry has the items listed that the new parent has stated they want or need. Problem solved! Simply purchase a gift listed in the register!

How does a person decide upon the best baby shower gift if the parent to be has not registered with a baby shower registry? Is it back to nail biting time? Not necessarily. The ultimate all time best baby shower gift has got to be a basket or diaper pail filled with baby diapers and the necessities that go along with diaper changing time.

Face it; the new arrival is pretty messy at times. Sometimes as soon as a new diaper is put on baby, baby wets or soils it. Depending upon the new parents choice, purchase them one, two, or three packages (or more, there are never too many diapers) of either cloth or disposable diapers.

Also purchase some of the convenient moist towelette baby butt cleaners. These moist towelettes are extremely useful when baby is busy dirtying his diaper. They are also most convenient when baby spits up. Baby as well as the clothing and person that were spit up on can both be cleaned with them.

Don’t forget the convenient little disposable bags needed to put all the dirty items in. Other items to be put into the basket or pail are the items used to change that dirty stinky baby into a sweet, powdery smelling clean baby. These wonderful gifts don’t even have to be wrapped! Just place them into the selected basket or diaper pail and place some bows and ribbons on it.

Favors for Baby Showers

It has become customary to give favors at baby showers to commemorate the coming of a new baby into the world and to remember the celebration you shared with the new mom to be.

Baby shower favors can be simply anything but it is preferable that the item is something that will last long and will be used quite often by the receiver and they can remember the day and the event. Examples of baby shower favors can be embroidered face cloths or handkerchiefs, personalized tumblers, bookmarks, pictures or anything that is unique to the event.

For those of you with no budgetary constraints, baby shower favors can even be personalized jewelry or expensive ornaments like silver spoons. You could even be very creative and adventurous and have an engraving made of a picture of a recent scan of the baby. I am sure that the mother to be would also enjoy one of these.

As you can see, there are simply an unlimited range of favors that you can give in a baby shower. It is always a good idea that the favor reminds the receiver of the day. A great way to do this is to ensure that the favor fits into the theme of the baby shower.

Creative Baby Shower Gifts

Have you been invited to a baby shower? If you have you probably want to come up with a creative baby shower gift to make the expectant parents feel extra special.

So where does a person go to find a truly creative baby shower gift?

The local department store is a good start. If nothing can be found there, an area mall usually has at least one store devoted to babies and gifts for babies. Still nothing? Then get on the internet and start surfing the web. It doesn’t really matter where you come up with that creative gift, it’s just important that you do find a truly unique and creative baby shower gift for your expectant friends.

Every baby needs diapers, right? But that isn’t a very creative gift. However, what if the package of diapers were opened, folded as though ready to be put on a baby, and then arranged around 3 or 4 clothes hangers that had been spread out until they were a circle, still with the half circle hanger part so as to still hang from a nail or curtain rod?

The diapers can be fastened to the hanger from the back with assorted colored diaper pins.
Then as the final touch, baby bottles, rattles, any small object which has to do with a baby can be tied on the front with ribbons. What is the final result? A truly creative baby shower gift of a diaper wreath!

Another gift idea to create with diapers is to again open the packages of diapers, (this gift may take 3 packages), and to fold the diapers all in half, then roll them into rolls resembling rolls of paper towels. Place twelve of the rolls standing on end, snuggly together in a circle; tie with a ribbon. Repeat this step, placing each ribbon banded group on top of the previous banded group. The finished product should have either three or four tiers of diapers much like a wedding cake. Place objects such as teddy bears on top and on each tier. The result? Another creative baby shower gift of a diaper cake!
