Whether you’ve received a baby shower invitation or are registering for your own baby bump, 2013 brings some baby gear trends that are both stylish and practical. Read on for some of our favorite items for those 2013 babies.
Stylish car seats: move beyond the traditional gray and black baby car seats to embrace new colors like carrot cake, keylime (shown to right), raspberry rose and cherry pie – these seats are refreshingly bright and cheerful!
Separate bedding pieces: bedding manufacturers are moving away from traditional bedding sets that contain a fitted sheet, bed skirt, bumper and quilt. Since the American Academy of Pediatrics issued guidelines against the use of bumpers in 2011, the sale of separate bedding pieces has skyrocketed. And checkout Skip Hop for fitted sheets that look like bumpers!
Gray: gray is the new brown for the nursery. Combine a neutral gray with blue, yellow, pink, green or purple for a fresh décor that won’t feel outdated when your baby reaches toddlerhood.
Mixie bottle: a simple solution for formula feeders. Fill with water and formula mix in advance, then push a button on the bottom of the bottle to release the powder to mix at feeding time. Available in either a 4oz or 8oz bottle.
Organic, neutral clothing: Pink and blue onesies will always have a place at any baby shower, but most baby clothing brands also offer an organic cotton line, often in neutral beiges with modern graphic designs.
Magnetic closures: For sleep-deprived parents who have wrongly fastened a baby’s sleeper, the magnetic closures offered on Magnificent Baby clothes may be a welcome addition. These baby-safe, washer-safe fasteners are the perfect solution for quick night-time changes.
Amidst all the standard essentials for baby feeding, clothing and sleeping, it’s always fun to see those few hot new gifts at any baby shower.
