The excitement of having a baby can rub off on people quickly. It doesn't matter if this is the first or fourth child for the new parents; babies are a major step down a person's life path. If you're surrounded by the excitement, why not give a shower gift of newborn outfits to the new parents?
A great reason to gift newborn outfits is their simplicity. Many people give diapers, toys and baby essentials to the new parents but forget about the clothes. Providing the baby with some onesies, tiny mittens or a warm hat or two will be a wonderful blessing to the parents. A new baby can be expensive and any gift that takes something off a must buy list for the mother and father will be most welcome. It doesn't matter if the new baby is a girl or a boy; the parents will most likely have ideas on how they would like their child dressed. Fortunately, clothing for a new baby can be found in any theme or colour scheme, from ruffles and pink for girls to rough and tumble designs for boys.
If the parents have chosen to keep their child dressed in gender neutral styles or have decided to not share or learn the gender until the baby is born, there are still many options for gift givers. Most clothing for a new baby is available in non gender specific colours and designs. This is very helpful for gift givers who do not know the gender of the baby or who simply want to step away from the traditional clothing paths. Newborn outfits are also wonderful to give, simply because of the vast variety that is available! Where once a sweater and cap were the pinnacle of gift giving, there are now choices in a myriad of styles to chose from - everything from the latest fashion to tiny tuxedos. You can even round out the outfit by adding a pair of matching soft-soled shoes. If you're planning on giving clothes at the baby shower, there's something you should remember: always make sure you get a gift receipt. This makes it much easier for a parent to make a return, whether it is because there were duplicate pieces received, or because the new baby grew so fast they need to get the next size up. In addition to the gift receipt, make sure you know the personal style of the parents when considering baby clothes. This is helpful if the parents are choosing to keep their new bundle of joy dressed in the same style as themselves. If the parents don't like the outfit, for whatever reason, the chances the baby will wear it are slim. If you've decided to give one or more newborn outfits as a gift at a baby shower, you have many adorable pieces of clothing to choose from. These tiny pieces of clothing are a thoughtful choice; not only will you be giving warmth and comfort to the new baby, you'll also be giving the parents something they can remember and cherish through photos, long after the child is grown up.
