10 Tips for baby shower gifts

Baby shower gifts can be very difficult, what is appropriate and still original? Below you will find 10 fun gifts that will surely make the parents and child happy.

  1. Play Gym

Looking for a gift that stimulates your baby's development and motor skills? Look no further! A Play Gym is the perfect gift for family and good friends. The Play Gym has a soft surface and removable toy bars. This means the play mat can also be used separately. The small toys included stimulate the child and allow them to get acquainted with their first skills!

  1. Tooth box or lock of hair box

Giving a tooth box or a lock of hair box as a gift might not be the first thing you think of, but it can mean a lot to the parents. The first teeth or locks of hair are usually very sentimental for the parents and they like to keep them. A box ensures that it can be stored safely and for a long time, a nice and inexpensive gift.

  1. Plaster cast set belly

Another sentimental gift: making a plaster cast of the pregnant belly. A pregnant belly is something that doesn't happen often in a woman's life, a moment that should be cherished. You'll get the best result around the 34th week of pregnancy, so it's not really a baby shower gift, but you could give it earlier as an early baby shower gift. Another gift idea using plaster is to make a print of the mother's or father's and baby's hands. This you could give as a baby shower gift.

  1. Memory chest

And we're not done with the sentimental gifts yet. Little ones grow up fast and you'd like to keep everything they find or get. Birth announcements, pregnancy test, first socks and first crafts. Everything must be kept and that is why a memory box is a nice gift to give so they can always look back on it.

  1. Baby swimming pool

Spring is coming again and everything is starting to bloom, and I'm probably not the first to think of this: summer is coming! And what goes with summer? Swimming! Now that's not so easy for a baby, but they still love splashing around and relaxing in the water. The pop-up pool is easy to fold up and take with you, handy for at home and on vacation! And thanks to the 60cm high canopy, the baby is also protected from the sun.

  1. Your own personal booklet

Tired of giving the same old gifts? You can make any child happy with their own personalized book. A book with your baby's name in a story, for example, with Woezel and Pip or Miffy. At Primera, for example, you can buy a nice book for a good price.

  1. Baby album

A baby album is the perfect gift for a mother. In the first year, there is a lot of development, the baby grows enormously and there are many milestones, which are great to capture in photos. This way you can always look back at it.

  1. Takeaway voucher or bring your own food

New parents are already busy enough with their newborn baby, and cooking isn't always convenient. So, give them a Thuisbezorgd gift card! They can order tasty food and not have to worry about the dishes! Do you prefer to cook something for them yourself? No problem, making food yourself is also a sweet gesture and they will surely appreciate it. Just ask if they have any allergies!

  1. Maternity basket

Finding it hard to pick the best gift? No worries! A basket full of little presents is a super fun and original gift. A romper, cuddly toy, pacifier, baby shampoo, diapers, and a rubber ducky, and Bob's your uncle!

  1. Ask parents themselves what they need.

You can of course come up with something yourself, but if you really can't think of anything or you can't find anything original, you can always ask the parents themselves what they need. The surprise will be a little less, but you can be sure that they will like it!

Hopefully these tips have helped you a little more to find a nice gift, and if not, you can always check our website for nice gifts. And don't forget to give the brothers and sisters a small gift too!
