Top 5 New Baby Gifts

When we found out we were pregnant and expecting a baby in 2017, a whole new world opened up to us. The baby product market. Of course, it's really fun to immerse yourself in when you're pregnant, but what a choice! Especially with your first, you want to be super well prepared & basically have everything in the house by your due date.

And then the day arrives: the birth of your little one. The most beautiful moment of your life. Hopefully, you'll be on cloud nine & can enjoy your family. How lovely it is to show the little one to all your dear friends & family. Unfortunately, because of Covid-19, this isn't always possible. All the more special those little moments of happiness are when the mail carrier drops by again with (small) gifts and thoughtful surprises!

Below is a fun top 5 inspiration list of new baby gifts that we really loved & that might deserve a place on your baby registry:

1. A gift card for the butcher or sushi shop, to treat yourself to everything you weren't allowed to eat during pregnancy!
2. Pram cover with name. This stroller accessory is really cute for your little one, but of course also for you to shine when you can finally go outside for the first time!
3. Muslin comforter or cuddly toy with a heartbeat. A soft muslin comforter makes sure they feel safe and secure. Of course, it's a huge change from being nice and close to/in mama to sleeping in your own little bed without any noise.
4. A fill-in book for the first year, for example from Kidooz. They grow up so quickly, enjoy every moment. That's what you hear everyone say. And only afterwards do you realize, that really is true! So capture as much as possible & enjoy it all over again later.
5. A birth box. This is a wooden box with, for example, a print of the birth announcement on top. Inside I have kept the first clothes, first shoes, and also the first lock of hair. I still sometimes put something in it, like a beautiful drawing.

Of course, there are still sooooo many more lovely gifts. Our webshop is full of them, of course! More lists will surely follow soon, because what about 'useless new baby gifts', haha.

Love, Maaike
