It is practically not possible for parents to get out of home without forgetting and leaving something behind. But it happens, often. Making a few steps outside and “oh, noooo, I forgot to put in the bag ….” This bag full of baby essentials as one the creative baby shower gifts could help the joyful new parents to stay away from any mishaps.

# 3 A Bunch of Baby Socks

 Yes, that’s right. The well-known boring gift idea for men – socks -is a great and useful creative baby shower gift. Why? Well. from mine experience I must say that sock are something that is used all the time. And when the little bundle of love becoma a toddler, the socks are changed quite frequently because of the sweating legs. SO, one of the most used type of wear for my kid are the socks. I change them at least 3 times per day. And since they are so small and tiny, I can say that the story with the missing daddy’s socks in the washing machine is repeating.

If you buy, let’s say at least 2 dozen pairs of socks (depending on your budget, but I will choose 52 pairs as more sensible), put them in a baby socks organizer, then in a beautiful box and gift-wrapping paper, you’ll have a simple, but high spirited and creative gift for a baby shower.

# 4 Baby Bath Gear

A gift that is fun and useful is to grab a baby tub filled with all the necessary things the new parent would need to keep a newborn squeaky fresh and clean. You don’t know what to put in? I promise, you’ll have many ideas!

A gift basket packed with things that make baby’s room more comforting at night might help a new parent endure those first couple of sleep deprived months. We can fill this sleep kit that has a soothing nightlight, a soft quilt, with tranquilizing music designed exclusively for babies.

Babies are mesmerized by their surroundings generally; we can make it much more exciting by having an activity gym which is a device that normally carries a cloth cushion and toys dangling from delicate arches. Easily transportable and light-weight, activity gyms are travel friendly, whether shuttling between the rooms or around the world. Ok! But why I’m mentioning the gym when talking about creative baby shower gifts? Maybe, you’ll say, this gym is not one the creative babyshower gifts. Well. yes, you are right in a way. But the reason is this: the best part here is that you can do a gym or a playing mat on your own, if you are handy enough. 🙂

#7 Gift Baskets

Traditional baby showers are gone by the wayside and showers which include both babies’ mom and dad are getting to be very popular. We can create a gift basket which is family-friendly for all involved in bringing the new life to the world. Shopping for gifts for the mom-to-be like nursing essentials, perfumed candles, moisturizer. etc., and for the Dad, look at a leather bound blank father’s journal with a great pen , hence he can put down his thoughts about his new role.

Option 2:”Grow with me” gift basket

This gift basket follows the newborn through its very first year. Beginning with a growth chart and adding things based on a theme we chose. I love this idea. It can be basket of socks, starting with new baby booties and increasing in the size up through a toddler or to include growing sizes of T-shirts, starting with the very small one and going through toddler’s size.
