 by: Donna Hamer

The choice for a baby or an infant gift can be a difficult one. One of the best baby or infant gifts that you can give is a gift basket. A gift basket is that one present that comes in many shapes, themes and of course price ranges. A gift basket is lovely gift to for a baby shower.

The diversity of gift baskets is never-ending. For a baby or newborn you can give a diaper gift basket or a baby necessities gift basket. If you’d prefer there is a baby bath time basket or an everlasting baby time capsule basket. In fact the list is endless.

Here is a simple basket that you can easily create yourself:

For the Gift Basket use a Baby Bath or try a Bucket. Then fill it with the following;

A ton of baby product coupons;
A Rubber Duck;
Bottles of lotion and baby oil;
Small toy books for baby;
Teething ring;
A few bottles;
2 pacifiers;
A few sturdy bibs;
A few sleepers;
A receiving blanket;

To add a little extra you could put together for mom:
Lotions;
Bath salts;
Pretty soaps;
Candles;
A few books;
Coupon holder with coupons in it. (Moms love these! ; )

Or try a small basket of:
Baby oil;
Baby bath wash;
A washcloth;
A rubber Duck;
Baby powder;
and baby lotion.

For Mom a picture frame, a disposable camera to record the event, a record book, photo album, along with a voucher for photo finishing.

When you are finished, wrap the Gift Basket with cellophane paper and a nice ribbon to give it a finishing touch. Tie a gift tag with a message for that added touch and include a pair of booties.
