Baby Shower Gifts And Traditions
The early tradition was to give handmade gifts before the christening of the child and the grandmother would usually offer the gift of a silver item.
This is probably where the idea of silver rattles and silver spoons came from. The idea of giving gifts to the new mother after the birth of her infant stemmed from the idea that newborn infants were very delicate and prone to falling ill. Visitors were not invited to meet the infant until they were at least a month old.
This tradition continued until the early part of the twentieth century, before women began arranging tea parties for new mothers. This was done after the birth, again due to the fact that pregnant ladies refrained from going out in public. The shower was modelled around the concept of the bridal shower, another special day in any womans life.
The term baby shower is most often used to denote a celebration for a first time mother, whereas parties held for mothers who are expecting their second, or third child celebrate a baby sprinkles party instead. The gifts brought for the mother and baby can be many and varied.
Bath products are very popular and can include soaps, baby powder, shampoo, body lotions and the like. Useful items like nappies, pacifiers, bibs, clothes, hair brushes and teething rings are also popular gift items. It is more likely that the close family would offer the gift of a silver or gold baby bracelet.
Blankets, hoods and socks are other useful and popular items. Soft toys like plush teddies, round balls and even mobiles to hang above the infants crib also make lovely baby gifts. Personalized gifts are a lovely gesture and many items can be engraved with the infants name. Alternatively clothing items can be embroidered to the same effect.
Baby keepsakes make a lovely gift that can be kept for many years. You could purchase a kit for making a handprint or footprint in clay that can be dried and hung as an ornament. Photo frames also make a lovely, thoughtful gift for displaying early photos of the new family.
Memory boxes are another great gift to give at a shower. On the exterior are places to display a photograph and a handprint or footprint and inside is space to store little keepsakes. Piggy banks are another thoughtful gift item that is ideal a gift for a baby shower.
Naturally there are some gifts that are more suitable for boys and some that are infinitely better suited to girls and color scheme is also a factor when choosing a gift. You will find many color options available, but traditionally pink is for girls and blue is for boys, with more neutral colors being green and yellow. Baby photo albums are also a good choice for baby shower gifts as they are useful items for safely storing all your photographic memories.
All of these make lovely baby shower gift ideas and they can be included in a baby gift basket that is many gifts in one. Find that perfect gift for new baby at http://www.mybabygiftbasketsandmore.com

what kind of ink do i get to get his handprint and feetprint?
i wanna get my baby's hand print and foot print to make a tattoo out of it. but i don't know what kind of ink to get or even where to find it. any ideas?
it's for paper at first and i'm just gonna have the tattoo artist copy it.
What I am going to do for my son's baby book is get a non-toxic ink stamp pad from a craft store. Michaels or Hobby Lobby will definitely have them in the stamp sections.
edit:
wait- do you need ink just to get his prints on paper? or ink to actually put in your skin? my answer is just to get it on paper. I have no idea about skin ink. sorry.
