Nothing warms up the holidays like a new baby in the house. It’s tempting to go for a holiday-themed gift item when shopping for a new baby during this special season. But the holidays are fleeting, and a new baby is for keeps. If you have a new baby yourself, welcome a new niece or nephew in the family, or receive a baby shower invitation, you don’t need a holiday-inspired gift at all.
Instead, choose something of value or usefulness that has some staying power. Steer clear of the holiday eye candy or hokey sentimentality in gifts that will get tossed aside as soon as the holidays are over. To help you, here’s a quick-hit new baby gift guide you can use if you are looking beyond the baby registry listed on the baby shower invitation:
Holiday Baby Gifts to Buy
- Baby’s First Christmas Ornament
- The Night Before Christmas book or other book about the spirit of the season
- Silver bell, engraved with baby’s name or monogram and birthdate
- Music box player
Holiday Baby Gifts to Skip
- Holiday teddy bear with the current year stitched on it
- Holiday outfits baby won’t wear
- Antlers
- Snow globe
Ultimate Gift: Baby Shower Invitation Registry Gift Card
Gift certificates to the baby registry store featured on the baby shower invitation is always a winner. Parents can clean out the rest of their baby’s registry, or buy those supplies and equipment they didn’t know they’d need. Another useful gift is a set of personalized baby thank you notes for parents to have at the ready for all the baby gifts they’ll be receiving.
