Ideas for New Baby Gifts

New baby gifts that are unique can often be found by visiting areas of the global village outside your own region. Something that is common in Africa may be unique in Australia. A normal new baby gift in Australia may be a unique baby gift in China. Sometimes, you can get an idea online, and have it created locally – or create it yourself.

Here are a few examples of unique new baby gifts.

1. My Blankie: Everyone knows that babies love to hold a blanket. As they grow, many are reluctant to give up that “blankie”. A unique new baby gift is a small, “baby-portable” soft blanket bearing the embroidered words “My Blankie” inside a pastel border. Or order a mini blankie to match a larger blanket. Present your unique new baby gift as a set so baby can always feel at home.

2. Knit Animals: Fair trade hand knit animals also make a unique new baby gift. Produced from start to finish in Kenya, Africa, these wonderful little animals are entirely handmade. The wool from local sheep is spun by women in Kenya. The wool is left natural, or plant-dyed. Then the women knit soft little lions, zebras, elephants, monkeys, and more. Since each is handmade, no two are identical. These are truly unique baby gifts for a new baby.

3. Kaloo: A unique baby gift from France might be a Kaloo soft toy. Chubby bears with baby bears in front pockets; chubby rabbits and other animals all come in beautiful boxes for a new baby gift that is sure to please.

4. Tummytubs: These are so popular you may have trouble getting one! They are perfect as a unique new baby gift, since the tub makes the baby feel much as though it is back in the safety of the womb. Tuck a few bath items into the tub to make your unique baby gift complete.

5. Stikarounds: Think what a unique baby gift this will be for that new baby! Pre-cut, ready-to-use stickers can be applied anywhere with a new, removable self adhesive that can easily be removed – even after years of use. The proud new parents can stick these pictures of Peter Rabbit, Winnie the Pooh, and a host of other creatures on painted or papered walls, furniture, doors, windows, mirrors, etc. This unique baby gift grows with the child, as you can easily and frequently reposition the stickers. If a move is in order, the stickers can be taken along and used in the new home.

6. Sckoon: This company has unique new baby gifts of organic cotton clothing inspired by Japanese styles. The momo pants and monkey pants are wonderful. Organic baby clothing is here to stay, and these are unique baby gifts.
