We have tried to note items that brought mom's
and dad's great satisfaction along with listing products that have a
minimalist approach. We love products that incorporate
multi-use functionality into design. Buying your Friends Baby Clothes
Our suggestion is to buy very few 3 month old baby clothes (8
pounds). Number one, it really sucks to change babies that are that
young. They fuss, they hate it - it's just bad news.
Besides, they don't spit up too much then and don't get dirty. Win
your friends affection by getting them either 6 month, 9 month or 12
month clothing. Babies seem to be larger these days, so we'd suggest
even very few 6 month clothing purchases. Baby
clothes that we like to give as gifts
1. Simple long-sleeved T-shirts in soft cotton - keeps arms warm
while sleeping.
2. Little cotton pants - snaps to get to diaper are fine or not,
doesn't really matter.
3. Socks from
www.Trumpette.com These are
very special and also unique. A guaranteed hit with your
friends having kids.
4. Simple short-sleeved T-shirts in soft cotton Check out:

5. Soft Sleepers with footies - if the sleeper snaps up the front
even better in our opinion. Make sure you purchase the
sleepers that have the softer material on the inside of the garment
next to babies skin. Some manufacturers construct the inside
of the sleeper with a polyester fabric which looks mighty
uncomfortable - then the outside of the sleeper is soft. Not
sure what they're thinking on this one. Seems like you'd want
the soft fabric next to baby.
6. The sleep sacks for infants with long sleeves. Babies
hands will never stay under a sheet so it's good to get long sleeves
for sleep wear for the infants. DVD's
Goodnight Moon and other Sleepytime tales
This is another fine Amy Schatz and HBO production. The Goodnight
Moon story is beautifully told by Susan Sarandon's - very relaxing
with beautiful music that seems meant for the story. The DVD is
authored to allow for skipping past the any of the kids stories,
tales or songs to get to your favorites - a feature that I really
appreciate in a good DVD. Babies seems quite engaged by the art,
music and overall calmness of the DVD. Classical Baby
We LOVE this DVD series by Amy Schatz and HBO. Parents and babies
alike seems to thoroughly enjoy this soothing, artistic and
beautiful work. The art and music are captivating. The motions
aren't frenetic like much of today's TV offerings. This set is a
perfect gift idea for your expecting friends.
