Tips For Coming Up With Unique Baby Shower Gift Ideas

By Debra Cook


Shopping for young or newborn babies can be difficult, especially if you have never done it before. It will even be worse if you show up for the baby shower, and realize you have the same gift as three other guests. Coming up with unique baby shower gift ideas can be difficult, but not impossible. As with most things, there are some simple guidelines to follow, which should help you choose the perfect present.

The first thing you should do is to inquire from her other friends and family members, whether there will be a party. This way, if there is no party, your gift to her can be to host the baby shower. In case there are already arrangements for this, you should ask to see the registry. This way, you will choose a particular present, and start looking for a way to make it even better.

These parties are regularly organized as a show of support to the new parents, whether before or after the child is born. You can, therefore, surprise them by getting them something for themselves. This can be something simple like a dinner reservation, or even a doula. What you get the parents should be in line with their new life, and also their personalities.

Children tend to grow very quickly especially in the first few years. With this in mind, try to buy something that they can use for a long time. In most cases, you will find that the parents have a lot of clothes and toys for the first few months, but not beyond that. You can also get something which can be used again. This will come in handy if they plan to get more than one child.

Children are born during any season of the year. There is, therefore, an appropriate gift for all seasons, from winter to spring. If you plan to shop in relation to the seasons, you may even choose to get them a set of four outfits. This should be appropriately selected to be warm enough during winter and airy enough for summer. They should also be bought in different sizes, to account for the fact that the child will be continuously growing.

If you are good with your hands, you can choose to make the present instead of buying it. This can be anything from the baby pillows, to picture frames, or even the crib. This will not only allow you to save money, but also to give the item a personal touch.

While looking through the stores, you might identify a lot of small knickknacks that you want to buy. You can assemble all these items and come up with a gift basket. This will allow you to put together a mix of antique items, as well as some new ones.

Sometimes, even if you have the will to buy something, your financial situation might restrict you. Get together with other friends and chip in the money, for the item. This will allow you to get something of high quality, or even to buy more things than if you tried doing it alone.
