Cool Baby Girl Gifts

If you know someone that has just had a baby girl then you will obviously be looking for that perfect gift for the new arrival. Buying for babies is not easy; it’s hard to know what they’re going to need. Your first choice will be clothes, this is not a bad idea but everybody buys clothes and how do you know what style of clothes to get, will the mother of the chid you’re buying for like them? Here we are going to have a look at a few ideas for some cool baby girl gifts.

 Gift baskets

You could buy a large wicker basket and fill it with those little essentials that are always needed. Things like nappies, bibs, cotton wool, scratch mittens, baby lotion, baby shampoo, baby soap and other small items. You could also include some dummies and a bath thermometer, all these things presented in a big basket covered in plastic and a big pink ribbon would make the ideal gift for a new baby girl. Your friend will really appreciate this kind of gift as it is something that is of practical use to the baby.

Christening gifts

The next big event in any babies’ life after their birth is a christening. Silver items are traditional gifts for christenings, as well as jewellery there are also many other gifts that you can buy in silver. Tiny keepsake or trinket boxes in sterling silver engraved with the child’s name would make a beautiful christening gift. Money boxes and photo frames are other popular choices for christenings; again these can be bought in silver if you want to stick with tradition. If you are looking for a more unique type of christening gift then you could buy a baby casting kit, used to take a plaster cast of the baby’s feet which can then be framed, this would make a beautiful addition to the nursery wall.

Personalized items

Not only do personalized items make fantastic gifts, the great thing is just about anything you can buy as a gift can be personalized. Bangles are a very popular and cool baby girl gift; they usually come in sterling silver so they could also be used as a christening gift. You could have the baby’s name engraved on the inside of the bangle and put in a nice presentation box also bearing the child’s name. Lockets are another great jewellery item that can be engraved; you can also put a baby photo inside too.  There are not many things that can’t be personalized, personalized gifts may be a little more expensive but they show that you have put thought into your gift and are more likely to be treasured. Once a baby has outgrown a sleep suit it’s of no use any more, but something that is personal and has meaning will last forever.

 This list is not exhaustive but hopefully it will have given you a few ideas for some cool baby girl gifts.
