Boys Baby Shower Gifts

Have you been looking at baby shower gifts for boys but aren't fully sure what to give? The options for boys baby shower gifts are many, and while a large amount of items are in blue, other colors, such as yellow, green, or brown, are also appropriate. Before you think about which items are better for a boy and which are better for girls, think about the parents first. A baby shower is more than a party and is typically an occasion for expecting parents to receive practical supplies, such as clothing and toys, for their new child.

If onesies and blankets seem too small and basic as baby shower gifts for boys, have you considered diaper cakes? Ideal as both presents and baby shower centerpieces, diaper cakes have a foundation of 80 to 150 diapers arranged in two to four tiers. Giving each cake a colorful appearance is several smaller baby products attached to the outside: blankets, plush animals, teething rings, and bath items.

Many diaper cakes for boys are designed in traditional blue. Either as a pastel or navy shade, these blue diaper cakes for boys have the usual items attached to the outside. While some parents insist on pink items for girls and blue for boys, most aren't that rigid, however, and plenty of other options for diaper cakes for boys are available at Rattlecake.

Animals are popular designs for diaper cakes for both sexes. For boys, the animals may be blue or they are often another color. Choose from several possible designs: Jungle creatures, such as monkeys, elephants, and giraffes, are atop many diaper cakes, but dogs, teddy bears, and cartoon animal characters are other colorful options.

Sports themes are also go-to designs for many diaper cakes for boys. Although Rattlecake does not carry diaper cakes with specific team logos, find common color combinations – blue and yellow or white, for instance – for the parents' favorite college or professional teams.
