Baby gift ideas - the gifts to avoid
Anything that says "easy to assemble" or "simple home assembly" - should be put together by you before you give it as a gift! There's nothing worse than spending a birthday or christmas day watching your loved ones struggle to put something together. Likewise if something you're buying as a gift requires batteries ensure there are some with it already in!
Baby clothes that require dry cleaning. Why do they even make baby clothes that need dry cleaning. All baby clothes should be easily washable.
They should also be easy to wear, not too hard to put on or off, especially for smaller babies popstuds are essentials so that clothes can be put on and off quickly withoutt loads of struggling, For first time parents giving them complicated clothes is just plain mean!
Don't buy too many first size clothes either - babys grow massively quickly and they might not even get chance to wear some of the things that get bought. Buy things for older ages that they can wear as they've got older - sleep suits and vests make good presents as everyone needs them.

The Keepsake company - baby and hand prints, castings of foot and shoes

They have some lovely gift ideas - including a Baby Hand and Foot Casting Kit.
These items would make lovely gifts for new parents and would help create something very special that every parent would treasure forever.
