How to pick out the best gift for babies in Australia
Unless you are familiar with the toys and learning products the baby you're shopping for already has, it is generally a good idea to ask the parents for baby gift ideas.
Babies, even in their earliest stages of development, have their favourite toys, sounds, colours and books. By asking the parents what the baby already has or what they would like as their child grows, you'll make the task of buying that perfect gift much easier.
Babies are often easier to buy for given that everything is new to them. When picking out baby gifts in Australia, consider the 5 senses:
- Sight: Lights are eye-catching. Really young babies can see more clearly in black and white while older ones will appreciate brightly coloured play things.
- Hearing: Calming musical toys can delight a baby's ears. However, be careful not to choose something too noisy and rambunctious or you'll end up being the cause of a parent's distress.
- Touch: Textured toys are a great exploratory option for a gift for a baby. Look for something with various different textures they'll be able to enjoy day after day.
- Smell: Smell is important as most babies will put anything and everything in their mouths. With that in mind, this sense is closely linked to a baby's sense of taste.
- Taste: Taste and smell are closely linked and both come into play with a baby's desire to explore toys with their mouths. With that in mind, there are also safety concerns to consider. Always make sure the toys have been properly safety-checked and approved for the appropriate age range.
Sensory play is a key developmental stimulator for kids of all ages, especially little ones.
Should I buy baby clothing as a gift?
Baby clothing is another good option you might consider given there's so much choice available in Australia. Here are 3 top tips for anyone buying baby clothing as a gift in Australia:
- Think ahead. When buying baby clothing, think ahead especially if when buying something for the upcoming season.
- Consider what size to buy. Babies change sizes quickly. With a whole new wardrobe being essential on a quarterly basis in their first year, clothing could be the ideal parent-pleaser gift for baby.
- Speak to the parents. If you plan to on buy a baby some new clothes, it's a good idea to talk to the parents first. Find out what they have already and buy something they're short of. Many new parents are gifted a pile of clothing in a wide range of sizes upon the birth of their baby so it's always wise to ask first.
In short, buying clothing as a baby's gift in Australia could an ideal solution. However, it's important to think, plan and discuss before doing so.
