Those little hands with teeny-tiny fingers. That chubby cheeks that you can’t resist biting into. That little yawn and smile when the infant is oh-so-comfy. These are just some of our favourite moments to cherish with a new-born baby. With the addition of this precious gift, a family is complete. The arrival of a newborn baby brings a world of joy and love only multiplied with gifts and presents. As we celebrate together with the new parents, we send our love and well wishes with gifts. We’ve looked at a variety of gifts to send to friends or family members who have a newborn baby. Here are a few of our favourite gifts to celebrate the arrival of a new baby.
Baby Hamper
The best gift to send to someone with a new baby is something practical that they can use every day. Why not get them an assortment of items in a baby hamper or gift basket? Mothers need a wide variety of baby products to tend to their infant. From baby feeding bottles to pacifiers, nipple cream, newborn diapers, a hot water flask, and a washcloth, there is a huge selection of items we could provide for baby care. Take a look at baby hampers from Flower Chimp Singapore as a start.
Baby hampers are great for parents with toddlers too. If your two-year-old is learning how to eat by herself, a set of baby cutlery would work wonders. The best part about baby hampers is their customisability. Mix and match items that you think suit the receiver best.
Baby Stroller Toy for Sensory Play
Every experience is a new experience for a newborn baby. A newborn baby can focus on objects at the age of 8 weeks. The first sense that a child at this age experiences is sight. Get the child a wonderful toy that comes with vivid colours and shapes – preferably one that attaches to the crib or stroller. This will allow the baby to focus on the colours and textures of the toy when looking upwards. A toy is also an ideal distraction from any discomfort of unpleasant encounters he/she may experience.
Baby Mittens
As soon as a newborn is cleaned, the nurses at the hospital slip on little mittens to the baby’s hand. Mittens prevent the hands from getting too chilly as most babies are used to the warmth of the mother’s body and could feel a drastic change in temperature when born. Mitten designs and patterns are only limited by our imagination. You can find any and every type of mitten design available both online and in retail. Whether you shop at Mothercare or online, rest assured, mittens are some of the best gifts for newborn babies.
Feeding Bottles of Different Sizes
Just like adults, babies have ever-changing needs. As the infant grows older, you’ll notice that he or she can have different moods from time to time. Sometimes, the baby wants more milk than usual. When this happens, we scramble to find a bigger milk bottle to provide for them. One way to gift a milk bottle is to pair a small one with a larger one. Philips Avent baby bottles are ideal choices as their nozzles are anti-colic. Not sure which size to get? Go for the 4oz (125ml) and the 9oz (260ml) options as standard. The parents can choose which one is best for their child’s milk consumption.
These are just a few ideas on what to get as gifts for a newborn baby. You could also buy swaddling cloths, bibs, socks, and a baby carrier as gifts. Now that you know more, go ahead and fashion that new baby gift and send it over to the new parents.
