What gift to give at birth?
A newborn in your life, and you do not know what to offer to young parents? Editus has compiled some ideas for you.
If the parents have established a birth list, you do not have to dig your head, just select a present on it.
However, if there is no birth list , you will have to think a bit more about what you will buy. Among the possibilities available to you, you can opt for:
- Clothes : Although this gift may seem extremely banal, it will prove useful. That being the case, avoid offering a clothing intended for the newborn, prefer more a piece of size 3 or 6 months.
Also, do not forget to think about the season in which the child will wear the garment , so that it does not end up with a light outfit in the middle of winter.
If you opt for a pajamas, take one that opens on the front, it will be much more convenient. - A book : Even if this gift will not be useful to the child during his first months, he will benefit more when he
will be taller, and his parents will read him a story. - A wooden game : once again in fashion for a few years now, it can decorate the baby room at first. Afterwards, he can have fun with.
- A personalized pacifier : on the internet, it is now possible to order lollipops with, written on it, the name of the child.
- A cake of layers : it is an ultra-trendy gift, which throws from an aesthetic point of view. Then diapers, for a baby, it is obviously useful.
- A star : a unique gift! The star will bear the name of the child, who will also receive a map of the sky indicating the location of the star baptized in his honor.
