Ideas For Wonderful Gift Themes for Your Friend’s Baby Shower
you have been invited to your friend’s baby shower. This is the first of your friends to have a baby and you have absolutely no idea of what to get her and what is sold for babiestoday. Baby boutiques and large baby product stores are a large industrytoday and can be seen all over America. Places like Babies R Us have computerized baby registries that can be viewed from your computer to find out exactly what your pregnant friend may wish for. Several gift givers buy a newborn sized outfit that probably only fits the baby for a short time. This will provide you some other alternatives that will be enjoyed by the new parents to be. One suggestion may be all of the safety devices your child may need when they get a bit older like cabinet locks, a safety rail or safety guardrails to prevent them for going down stairs or tumbling out of bed.
The first great idea would be to come up with a theme for your gift. An example could be wash time. This can be created into a creative gift by making the infant bathtub the “basket” that will contain all of the other supplies needed for baby’s first bath. The infant friendly baby soaps and lotions and a fun hooded towel and washcloths can all be placed into the tub. Wrap it all up in clear paper and tie it with a bow and it will make a great and very useful present.
Another theme could be focused on mealtime during outings or traveling. This could be an item to have a few others to go in on it with you also. A fold able portable high chair to take traveling is something that is inexpensive and a useful thing to have. Some other things to go with the eating theme are disposable bibs that you can throw out once used while out and about, baby food that is in unbreakable to go containers and bottles too. All of the smaller items can also beput into the booster high chair to create an entertaining presentation.
A third theme that can be a useful gift for the expecting parent is a basket focused on safety. This can cover all of the things that may not be needed right away with your newborn but certainly will be necessary once your child begins crawling and walking. Most cabinets and drawers that are within reach by the child should have locks installed. Door knob covers to stop doors from being opened and electrical outlet plugs are all great items to include in your safety kit. Perhaps a child friendly first aid kit would be a good item to includeas well.
Hopefully some of these ideas will help you in finding a great gift for your friends baby shower and stop you from being overwhelmed when going into a baby specialty shop with all of the various options. Now it is off to go to the store!
