Published on Jun 9, 2023.

If you know of a friend who has recently welcomed a new member of their family and you’re wondering what to get the little one to make the holiday feel extra special, it’s time to pull out all the stops and find the perfect Christmas baby gift. From festive teethers to practical toys, any of these baby Christmas gifts will be the star on top of this special milestone.

Matching Pajamas

If buying pajamas is a holiday tradition for their family, it’s time to clue the new member into the mix! Get a matching set for the whole family and ease the load on your Christmas shopping! Matching pajamas will look adorable and help the little one blend right into his/her new family. Additionally, they make the most perfect photo opportunity for Christmas cards and memories!

Baby-Proof Books

In the modern age of innovation, you no longer have to worry about books being destroyed by inquisitive children. Baby-proof books are chew-proof, drool-proof, and rip-proof, making them the perfect gifts for a baby’s first Christmas. You can even find books that can be thrown into the dishwasher or washing machine. Say goodbye to messy clean-ups and hello to more storytimes!

Personalized Wood Block Ornament

Ornament and toy in one, gift your friend’s baby personalized wood block ornaments with the baby’s name and age. Not only will they have a special place on their Christmas tree year after year, but they also perfectly serve as wooden block toys for the child to play with!

Handprint Ornament

Another personalized gift, this one-of-a-kind ornament will definitely be a special gift! Babies grow up extremely fast so help your friends remember and cherish these moments with a custom Christmas tree ornament featuring their baby’s handprint.

Christmas Teethers

For babies who are teething, seasonally appropriate Christmas tree-shaped teethers make the perfect stocking stuffers. Make sure that they are non-toxic, BPA-free, latex-free, and not coated in varnishes or paint. Instead, opt for teethers made with food-grade/medical-grade silicone or untreated wood.

Gift Set

This Storytime Pink Bear Lounger, Stuffed Animal & Board Book Trio Gift Set is the perfect gift to nurture future voracious readers. Featuring a soft cuddly pink bear for the baby to lounge in and as well as a stuffed animal, we are sure that the baby will look extremely adorable with the new present.

Stacking Toys

Stacking toys are the perfect toys to help build a newborn’s dexterity and hand-eye coordination so they should receive plenty of them as gifts. Opt for numbered stacking toys if the baby has an older sibling so that the toy can be shared and help with the older child’s counting skills. If not, simply keep it for when the baby grows!

Baby Mat

Baby mats are a great way to allow babies to explore and play within a safe environment. This Bestever Blue Bear Baby Mat is perfect for both naptime and playtime. With a stuffed head to act as a pillow and soft plush fabric, babies can choose to nap or play safely on the mat with its non-skid backing.
