The arrival of a baby is a joyous time and a time for fun. Join in the celebration by choosing a baby gift that will be used, treasured, and remembered.

Unique gifts don't have to be impractical. There are many classic gifts for baby that are needed for each new birth. Bedding and bath items are always a good choice. A new mom can't receive too many burp cloths, receiving blankets, washcloths, crib pads, tiny towels, sheets, or crib bumpers, even if this isn't the first baby of a family. Beautiful colors and cute patterns abound, so that the choice can reflect popular color combinations, sports, flowers, nursery rhymes and other fun themes.

Clothes make great baby gifts. Parents can dress their baby in outfits ranging from funny to classic. When buying clothes, don't look only in the newborn sizes - clothes in larger sizes will be so appreciated in future months, too. Grab the latest styles and colors, or stick with the staples such as tees, snap-front rompers, or side-snap shirts in pastels and cute prints. Hats, caps, headbands, miniscule sweaters and tiny shoes, and socks make precious gifts and are the type of item parents want for their baby, but rarely buy themselves, hoping that friends and family will get these adorable extras for the baby.

Babies need so many things. Bibs, bottles, rattles, teethers, soft-coated spoons, miniature divided plates, and sippy cups are all part of the gear a baby needs. Diaper bags make excellent baby gifts. An often-overlooked but greatly appreciated gift would be boxes of baby wipes. Other "consumables" are also highly desired and useful, such as baby shampoo, baby wash, baby powders, and baby oil. These items are used daily and parents love to have extra on hand.

Fanciful, practical, or trendy, clothes make wonderful baby gifts. Buy staples, such as zip-up blanket suits, tiny undershirts, sleep sacks, and snap-bottom bodysuits in sizes from newborn to 24 months, or consider giving a more unusual clothing item in newborn sizes, such as a hat, fancy shoes, or funny tee shirt. Go classic or buy clothes in the latest color combinations and design trends. Baby jewelry is very popular again and is a unique, beautiful choice.

Duplicating a gift isn't a problem when buying for a baby. Parents need multiples of almost everything, especially things such as bedding, clothes, bibs, booties, and teething toys. It's also convenient to have more than one specialty item, such as a baby swing or car seat, so that parents, caregivers, and grandparents have these items on hand, too.
