Why Not Make Your Own Baby Gift Baskets?

By Alice Nance


For sure you have probably observed how baby gifts stand out from the rest of the pack when it comes to gift-giving season. There really isn't much to baby gift baskets, really - it's just a beautiful basket chock full of toys, candy, books and other baby treats. But to buy baby gift baskets is not sufficient these days. The presentation is what matters the most. It is not what is in the basket, or the cost of the baby gifts, but rather how they are presented for the recipient.

A Quick Yet Comprehensive Guide to Making the Best Baby Gift Basket

Here are a few quick helpful hints that could help you create a beautiful, unusual and captivating baby gift basket.

You want to prioritize the needs of the baby's parents - what do they particularly require for their precocious little darling - before buying the gifts to put in the basket. Baby sitting coupons, for instance, are a great choice, particularly for those parents who work nights.

You can also let your creativity shine through by creating something like a nursing survival kit - a nice book about nursing babies, lansinoh cream, breast pads, etc.

Your creativity can also prevail when creating a special baby gift basket focusing on the child's slumber - a downy baby blanket, another miracle blanket and a white noise CD.

Detail must be meticulously paid attention to, as it is important to make sure everything is in there with the gift for the parents to use. For example, if the presents requires a set of batteries, then it would be nice to include a small package of batteries.

A truly brilliant baby gift basket needs not any further attention on the parents' part - it should all be ready to use and enjoy.

Because there is always a possibility the parents may get identical or similar baby gifts, you would want to include the gift receipt with the basket so you can facilitate an exchange if needed.

Remember that parents would often want to show their gratitude and thank the giver for such a wonderful gift basket, so include not just your full name (even if the recipient knows you), but also your postal address - who knows, you might receive a heartfelt thank you note in the post in a fortnight after giving the gift!

It is not recommended that you send a personalized gift if you are not all too acquainted with the family to begin with. Names invariably get misspelled when giving personalized gifts to people one knows none too well. There is a bigger difference than you think between Brian and Bryan, or Diane and Dianne. Be that as it may, it is also challenging to figure out the baby's pet name in such a situation. If they named their darling son Lawrence but refer to him invariably as Larry, the odds are very good that little Larry won't be too receptive to a gift with the name Lawrence engraved, embossed, embroidered or embellished on it.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy, wasn't it? If you want to buy baby gift baskets for newborn babies and their moms, you can stand out from the rest with the above recommendations and a little creativity.
