Baby Shower Gifts
One of the primary reasons for throwing a shower is so that the mom gets lots of baby shower gifts, presumably to help out with getting ready for the baby. However that doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun while you are picking out the gifts. After all mom certainly has fun opening the gifts for her baby.
Before you go out to pick up something to give at the baby shower you might want to ask the prospective parents what items they need for the baby. It could very well be that they all ready have some of the big ticket items like the car seat and the baby crib, having received them from another family that doesn’t need the items anymore. You can be almost certain that they will need an endless supply of the basic necessities.
This includes diapers, wipes, formula, baby food, nuknuks, bottles, clothes, towels, even baby shampoo and soaps. If you are unfamiliar with what’s needed, just take a walk down the baby needs aisle at your local grocery store. At some point or other the parents will need one of everything in the aisle, especially diapers, baby powder and wipes. These may seem not so glamorous but if you put together a diaper bag filled with such items you can almost certainly be assured that the prospective parents will find a use for them. In the end you’ll have the most practical gift of all, which is really the point of the baby shower isn’t it?
If you want to make more of a splash at the baby shower you can get a gift for about six weeks or so after the birth of the new baby intended especially for the parents. This gift can be a special dinner at a nice restaurant. Get them a gift certificate and make reservations so they have no choice but to let you baby-sit for an evening. Often new parents will find themselves overwhelmed and can easily slip into an all parenting mode, thus forgetting about their personal needs so this makes a great gift.
