Great Ideas for Gift-Giving!
This week, we would like to focus on some great gift ideas for little ones. With so many options out there, we understand that the choices can be overwhelming. We hope that these examples of extra-cute and extra-useful gifts will help to make the gift-buying process less complicated!
Newborn/Coming Home Outfits
The moment a little baby is brought home from the hospital is the moment life with a newborn truly begins! Bringing the baby home is a big occasion for the whole family — and having an adorable outfit to commemorate the day is key! However, despite the fact that this is a special occasion, it is still a great idea to opt for something comfy and easy to change into and out of, as the new family will definitely be a little tuckered out from all the excitement!
Try something like this adorable outfit, featuring the Jasper long sleeve onesie from OM baby, heart pants from Sapling, and Kaloo Zen booties! The little bundle of joy will be comfortable and stylish for the big move into their new home.
Take Care of Mom too!
Buying baby gifts is as much about buying gifts for parents as it is for little ones, and picking a gift that will help mom out in the baby stages is a great idea!
Take this gift set, for example. Franck & Fischer’s Asta the owl makes a fabulous addition to any nursery, while the aden + anais nibble snap bib will keep baby’s clothes clean. The Chewbeads perry necklace serves as jewelry that babies teeth on, so that mom can still accessorize her outfits without worrying about the baby!
Darling Little Boy
Looking for something to welcome a new little man in your life?
The Sapling short sleeve onesie in little boy blue, and the beba bean bear hat serve as a cute and practical outfit for his first year, while the mally bib is easy to clean and complete with a magnetic closure for easy removal!
Sweet Little Girl
If you have a lovely little lady to buy for, try a cozy & cuddly outfit!
The Imps & Elfs long sleeve shirt and lounge pants are comfy and stylish, especially when paired with the Electrik Kidz sweetheart bandana bib. Finish it off with Kaloo’s Zen doudou rabbit to keep baby playing!
Neutral Outfits
Shopping for little ones doesn’t always have to be dominated by “pink or blue” — in fact, neutral clothing is great both for parents that opt out of discovering the gender, and for parents who do know, because they can be paired with many other things that already exist in the child’s wardrobe for increased longevity!
This two-piece outfit will be great for either a boy or a girl! The reversible Avnee pants from OM baby can be worn multiple ways, while the SoRad t-shirt is made of soft and breathable bamboo! These designers are both Toronto-based as well, so this outfit is a great statement for shopping local. Add in the mikki fox rattle and you have an adorable, yet practical gift option!
Older Children
Whether it’s a birthday, or perhaps a gift for an older sibling who will soon have to share a lot more attention with a new baby, gift buying for older kids can be loads of fun — and just as cute as buying for infants!
Here we have the adorable long sleeve Robin Who t-shirt from Imps & Elfs as well as the Imps & Elfs 6 pocket corduroy pants. We also have the 6-piece prism pouch by Tegu! These magnetic blocks are amazing for almost any age, and the prism pouch is great for on-the-go fun.
