Baby Shower Gifts

When you’re looking for a present for a baby shower, the options seem practically endless. Go to any retailer and you’ll find clothing, toys, blankets, and gift sets all geared toward a baby shower. No matter if you’re involved in the planning of a shower or simply a guest, you want to arrive with a gift that is not only fun and cute but is also practical for new parents. While the parents already have furniture, such as cribs and playpens, and strollers by this point, they need as many smaller items for their new baby as possible.

Practicality with baby shower gifts begins with thinking about what a new baby will need for its first year. In all cases, this is a combination of toys, clothing, blankets, teething toys, and sheets. Some of these, such as clothing, will only last a few months, while blankets or sheets for a crib may last a full year. Others, such as teething toys, will be used later but within the span of a year. Any of these gifts are appropriate for a baby shower, and gift sets even combine several of these items together in an attractive package.

Diaper cakes are fun and practical in this aspect. They’ve become popular as centerpieces for baby showers, and, once the party is over, the parents have several baby products they’ll need. Diaper cakes by Rattlecake are made from 100 to 150 diapers, and several other baby products are attached to the outside. The cake gives new parents a start on the amount of diapers needed for a baby, and all baby products, be it clothing, a blanket, or toys, will be used during the first year. If you’re involved in the planning of a baby shower, consider a diaper cake by Rattlecake. Not only will it serve as a festive centerpiece, but the items making up the cake will be of use long after the shower is over.
