• Choose Heirloom Quality Items 
• Choose Personalized Items

When shopping for a newborn gift, consider a gift that will be cherished. Many items will be tossed or given away, but some will be saved as reminders of the precious times. Good choices are items that are made of organic materials, are of heirloom quality or are personalized.

Clothing and blankets made of organic fibers such as cotton, wool, hemp, and silk are safer for newborn skin, long lasting and better for the environment. When giving any item that will be used for storage whether it is a photo album, picture frame or keepsake box, be sure it is not made with any material that can damage photographs or cloth items. Storage items should be made with plastics, adhesives, or paper that is of archival quality in order to protect the memorabilia. Archival quality items will be labeled as such.

If you are purchasing items such as baby bottles, toys or baby bath items, be sure that baby bottles and toys are manufactured using safe plastics, that toys are not choking hazards or have sharp edges, and that baby bath items such as soap, shampoo and lotion are made with natural ingredients; chemicals may affect baby's sensitive skin.

Personalization like embroidering or stamping the newborn's name or initials will add a special touch. Suggestions for personalized gifts include bath robes, blankets, picture frames, and photo albums. If the retailer does not offer personalization, you can find local shops that provide this service. Whatever newborn gift you are considering, always choose quality over quantity.
