Holiday Gifts for New Parents – Cool Baby Bibs and More
>> Nov 23, 2015
Christmas is coming up soon and many
of us are looking for something for everyone on our lists. Here we’ll give you
a few great ideas for gifts to buy new parents, including some things that
aren’t just for baby.
It’s also nice to be able to buy
something for the family unit, instead of having to focus on the likes and
dislikes of each person, so these gifts will be perfect, and possibly even less
awkward, to give to everyone.
Whether they choose to take baby or
not, new parents can often use a night out, at least as an excuse not to have
to cook dinner. Many chain restaurants offer easy-to-use gift cards, which are
a breeze to pick up. Some can even be found near the register of your local
grocery store. But don’t hesitate to buy a certificate from a local smaller
restaurant either.

From baby bibs to mini sneakers, clothes that
represent mom or dad’s profession (mini doctor or fireman shirts?) to an
amazing stroller, there is a world of fun things you can buy for new parents
that will be different from anything they have. You’ll also find tons of great
natural and organic options online for conscious parents.
New
Books or DVDs
Mom and Dad may be sticking pretty
close to home these days, as it’s not always easy to go on outings with a tiny
infant. Consider stocking their DVD or BluRay collection with some new
releases, or gifting them one of your favorite recent reads. If in doubt, check
the New York Times’ bestseller list for the best new books to hit the market.
Spa
or Beauty Salon
Having a baby does a number on your
body, and after baby is born there may not be much time for beauty rituals.
Give Mom (and Dad!) a pick-me-up with a certificate for a new hair style,
manicure, pedicure or massage. They may even be able to escape for a couples
massage- bonus points if you offer to watch baby while they go! These shorter
outings are easier for new parents to schedule, as they don’t require a huge
time commitment.
Board
Games
These are another great way to make
staying home more fun, especially when it’s cold outside. Pick up a limited
edition of Monopoly or a fancy chess set and they’ll have something to do
during another night in.
From baby bibs to board games and
those luxurious certificates for pampering and meals, there is a range of good
gifts you can spoil new parents with this year. Do you have anything to add to
the list? Share them with our readers in the comments below.
