Practical Gift Ideas for a Baby Shower

Author: KatiesWorld, 10 27th, 2008

The baby shower provides an opportunity for family and friends to assist new mothers
in purchasing all the necessities for their new baby.  Many essential items like strollers, car seats, baby cribs, and high chairs are quite expensive, more than most family members and friends can afford.  Here is a list of several smaller items that can be purchased on a reasonable budget:

  • Clothes of all sizes from newborn to toddler are affordable and will be much appreciated by a new mother who doesn’t have time to shop while her baby is growing.
  • Baby hampers are great for all those clothes; it’s not uncommon for a baby to change clothes three or four times a day!
  • Bottles are great for a formula feeding mother, while there are pillows, shields, and creams for a breastfeeding mother.
  • Toys are another option; stuffed animals, plushes, and rattles provide entertainment for the infant and the mother.
