Baby Girl Gifts

Baby girl gifts can be a bit of a puzzle. What do you get the brand new individual who has everything? And by everything, we mean diapers, blankets, clothes, and a whole lot of love. The most important thing to remember is that the baby's parents are probably sleep-deprived and could use all the help they can get. With that in mind, below are some ideas for baby girl gift baskets that are both thoughtful and practical.

Gift baskets are always appreciated because they can be used immediately and tend to have a longer shelf life than flowers (though the latter are nice too). But what goes in a baby girl gift basket? nappy cream, hand sanitizer, burp cloths, and a onesie or two are always welcome. For the more creative gift-giver, try filling the basket with items that relate to baby's birth month - for example, if she was born in January, include a festive hat, gloves and scarf set. Or home baked goods for when those initial sleepless nights turn into early mornings.

If you're looking for something unique, there are plenty of baby girl gifts available that celebrate her special status as a girl. From pretty pink dresses to personalized storybooks featuring her name, there's no shortage of ways to mark this momentous occasion. And don't forget the gift of your time! New parents often appreciate offers of help around the house or even justsomeone to talk to about the challenges (and joys) of this amazing time.
