If you are going to a Christening ceremony, you will have given a lot of thought to what kind of present you will choose. Born Gifted are here to help when it comes to choosing presents for all occasions, including Baby Shower gifts. You may not be familiar with the term baby shower, but over the last ten years it has crossed the Atlantic from America where it has long been used to describe a party where baby gifts are traditionally given before the child is born.
The baby shower is thought to have originated in the late 19th Century and received its name from the ‘showering’ of love and gifts for the mother-to-be from friends and family. The baby shower started as a tea party for women who would share the day with the expectant mum and her female relations, and the baby gifts given were always practical in nature and handmade.
A baby shower was originally given for the first baby of a couple but that tradition has changed over the years and now includes other children born into the family. So, now you know all there is to know about the origins of the Baby Shower, you are ready to look at the wide range of baby shower gifts on offer at the Born Gifted website. There are ideas for every occasion on the website as Born Gifted don’t just concentrate on Newborn Baby gifts. They can help you choose presents for Mother’s Day and Dad’s birthday with a range of personalized presents to suit everyone.

You do not know the meaning of true love until you have a baby. When you look into the eyes of a newborn, you may be curious as to what they are feeling or thinking. Does crying mean that she is sad? Does smiling mean that he loves his baby toys?
There is a massive difference between baby and adult emotions. Although the expressions are familiar, the meanings throughout the first six months of life are significantly different. The seeds of emotion will grow with time.
What is a coo? Although many parents mistake this as a smile, during the first three months this is an involuntary neurological activity. From three months onwards, your baby will develop a social smile and react to certain stimuli, especially faces. If you are hoping to become godparents, one of the best godparent gifts you could give would be your face and a few kind, mooshy baby words. Watch little one react with a cheeky beam!
When your little bundle turns into a little devil with red-faced cheeks and a mighty wail, he may not be expressing his distaste for those stripy pink and purple mittens with matching bonnet that were given as hand knitted baby shower gifts. Instead, he may be expressing discomfort in the form of a soggy nappy or hunger. As time passes, baby will go through a building block process where he will experience frustration and anger. Educational baby toys such as balls which encourage baby’s motor skills can be great fun, but when mummy doesn’t roll the ball fast enough, baby may express his feelings via tears.
These are just a few ways to tap into your baby’s feelings and build up a rapport. Baby gifts are extremely ideal as ‘ice breakers’ for developing these social situations.

Whether you are looking for first baby gift ideas or plush toys, the art of giving creates happiness and this is even more prominent in babies.
So why do personalised baby gifts hold that special place in people’s hearts? The tradition of making presents unique has been around for many centuries. From Godparent presents through to first baby gift ideas, a monogrammed name or personal message increases the value of the sentiment and can make even the most inexpensive gift look important.
Baby and toddler toys are so easy to pick up, whether you choose a book or a jigsaw. However, if the book has little Emma’s name embossed on the pages or if the jigsaw is a photograph of little Emma, those ‘boring pages’ or ‘awkward pieces’ become something special and unique only to her.
Personalized baby gifts represent the quality of a present and not the quantity. This separates your gifts from all of the others and makes them stand out.
Children love being in the limelight. There is nothing better than broadcasting little Emma’s achievements to the world. It helps to boost confidence and in the case of clothing, can often allow parents to get away with toddler wearing that hat which she would normally refuse to put on. T-shirts or baby grows could even be monogrammed with funny sayings or pet names which are relevant to the child.
Nursery rhyme CD’s are a novel way to create personalised baby gifts. Some companies allow you to have baby’s name added to the lyrics of songs. Your toddler will just giggle with joy when he hears someone singing a song all about him!

A baby is a gift unwrapped, which should only be opened with love. But when we buy baby gifts out of love, especially in the form of clothing, why do we buy baby grows in blue for a boy and pink for a girl?
Even the paper we choose to wrap our baby gifts is selected by gender. Are we driven by evolutionary instinct? Theorists believe that females prefer reds and pinks as they are associated with their hunter gatherer days. Whilst men hunted, women gathered fruits and vegetables; therefore, females became attuned to the blush of ripe fruits. They were also aware of their children’s ruddy faces which were associated with illness. Men prefer blues as they signified good weather and a good water source. This provided information on feeding and watering grounds where animals could be hunted.
So, the next time you look for newborn baby gifts, will you be influenced by your evolutionary instincts? Or will you opt out of the great colour divide and buy clothes in greens or yellows?
Whenever we choose to buy childrens toys or clothing, it is easy to spot the gender difference. Are we boxing our children into set standards? Research shows that colours are important for youngsters as it helps them to establish their sex. As they become older, freedom of choice releases the constraints of the pink/blue barrier and does not cause any long term gender issues in later life.

A brother or sister shares the memories of childhood and grown-up dreams, but how do we teach our toddler to accept a new baby into the fold?
Whilst it may be easy for parents to adjust to the role change, your toddler may have some serious difficulties coping with someone new stealing the limelight when you bring your baby home.
Include your child in as many of the preparations as possible. One good way to do this is to encourage him/her to buy some baby gifts for their little brother or sister. This is a great way to help your youngster form a mental bond with baby.
There are many wonderful ideas on the market right now. Let your child hand pick baby gifts that they would personally like to give. They do not have to be elaborate, just simple things such as small teddies or rattles.
Whilst your little one is pondering over which gift to lavish upon baby, it may even be a nice gesture to look at baby toys. Whenever you buy something for the pending arrival, you should always remember to buy a little something for your other child, too. One good idea is a book which could gently explain how things will be when baby arrives home. The range is vast and toddler toys fluctuate from puzzle games through to riding on playthings.
Children learn by example. By highlighting all of the good reasons to having a new addition in the family, your child will gently adapt to sharing life with another and equally enjoy the benefits.

The name that you choose for your baby will become his/her prime identity for life, which is why parents spend a lot of time deliberating over the name of their baby. The following points should be considered when pinning a lifelong label on your newborn.
Unusual names – Family and friends are always keen to know a baby’s name so they can go out and buy those personalised newborn baby gifts. However, parents need to choose a name with prudence. After all, it is the child who has to carry around this title for a lifetime. Most children find it hard to fit in, so giving a child a weird and wacky name could have a detrimental effect on self image, confidence and future development. It could even encourage teasing.
Religious names – Some people believe that a religious name carries spiritual and religious meanings and will bestow great blessings over the individual. Parents who give their child a religious name are optimistic that their baby will be protected throughout life and will be bestowed with many blessings. Buying personalised christening gifts is also easier as many are embossed with familiar names from the bible such as Matthew, Simon, Bethany and Mary.
Naming your child is one of the most precious new born baby gifts that you can give, so choose it with care and love. It is also important to ensure that when combined with the surname, both titles make a total name; one which sounds influentially acceptable when combined with the first name.
Here at Born Gifted, we supply a range of baby gifts suitable for any gender or personal preference.

When it comes to baby gifts you can’t go wrong with a beautiful baby blanket to keep the new arrival snuggled and warm. They can be used in many situations from swaddling a newborn, to providing privacy to a nursing mum to simply keeping the baby warm in her cot, pram or car seat. They are a great addition to any nurseries and can be used to add a splash of colour to neutral designs. In the summer they are a great way of shading the baby from the sun if you get caught by surprise in our brief British summers, and can be used as a soft and clean place to lie and play on the ground.
As baby gifts, the versatility of baby blankets means you will always be appreciated by the parents. In short, you can never have enough baby blankets!
If you are trying to choose a baby blanket as a newborn baby’s gift, there are a few things you can bear in mind. Obviously, think about the parents. Are they traditional in their approach or do they opt for the more contemporary look? If they like the traditional baby garb then soft woolen fabrics in pastel shades will appeal most. If they have a modern leaning then look out for baby blankets with bold and colourful prints.
Another lovely touch is to have the baby blanket personalised with the baby’s name, and perhaps date of birth. A discreet touch is to have the initial of the baby embroidered on the blanket.
At Born Gifted we have a beautiful range of baby gifts to choose from.
