Check out 6 of the top baby shower gifts you can give (according to parents) here. 

1. Infant Bathtub

If you’re a practical gift giver and want to give something that can be used every day, an infant bathtub is one of the best baby shower gifts you can buy. Newborns take a lot of baths and a little tub that can be placed in a larger bathtub or shower is a useful and safe purchase.  

2. Diaper Pail

Speaking of practical baby shower gift ideas, a diaper pail is at the top of the list for all new moms. It’s no secret that babies go through many diapers daily, so it’s a good idea to have a designated waste spot for all those dirty nappies! 

3. Stuffed Animal

Whether you are looking for baby shower gifts for boy babies or girl babies, a stuffed animal is usually a hit. And nothing is more precious than a baby’s first dog! Try a little weenie beanie baby dog for pint-sized pet owners to snuggle. 

4. A Foldable High Chair

Looking for the perfect gift for parents on the go? A foldable high chair is great for those that love to dine out.

5. Baby Clothes

It’s hard to resist the lure of itty-bitty clothes. So if you want, choose some cute ensembles for the baby–it’s sure to be appreciated by the parents. 

6. Baby Shower Gift Baskets

Can’t decide on one particular thing for your gift? Then put together a fun and functional gift basket with supplies and treats for the newborn and the mother. You can create a basket chock full of goodies like a baby blanket, bib, lotion, and other lovely items. 

7. Hostess Baby Shower Gifts

While you’re having fun selecting gifts, don’t forget one for the baby shower hostess! Though it isn’t required, it’s a thoughtful gesture to bring something small for the person that is hosting the baby shower. It can be as simple as a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates–just something small to show you appreciate them.
