Baby Gifts

Whether boy or a girl, babies are ultimately delightful. A bundle of sheer joy, they are capable of lighting up the dullest of dull days with their angelic smiles and carefree gurgles. It’s not just the parents who fall prey to their easy charm, it is anybody and everybody even remotely associated. Family, friends, neighbors and even complete strangers in shopping malls or parks can hardly resist a baby’s magic.

While choosing a gift for babies, the first few thoughts revolve around soft dreamlike yet utilitarian objects like baby blankets, the tiniest of tiny baby clothes with matching bibs and shoes, baby book of firsts, toys, and personalized photo-frames and so on. Baby cribs and prams also make nice gifts, and will be much appreciated by the parents.

When choosing gifts for a baby, nothing ever seems good enough. If possible, you would even go fetch the stars and the moon or hand over your very heart on a platter. Well, you needn’t take such drastic measures. You can actually go ahead with these plans without endangering yourself.

A white gold bracelet with a tiny heart bearing a diamond accent adorning it would make an everlasting gift for your little one. The nickel free metal will not cause an allergy on your angel’s arm so you can be rest assured, and due to the adjustable band, it can be worn till the age of three. You could even choose to have a heart with diamond accents in the same make. Whoever said you couldn’t reach the stars and couldn’t hand over a piece of your heart.

So the little princess has already enamored you with her fluttering eyelids and mystic smiles and you want a gift just like her - impossibly sweet. A pair of heart shaped studs with diamond accents will catch the twinkle in her eyes especially if complemented with a similar pendant. The only thing you could trade these for would be star shaped studs with diamond accents and a similar pendant. You could get these in both white as well as yellow gold. A pair of simple diamond studs in white or yellow gold would prove a very good buy, as they will remain her prized possession even when she blooms into a lovely young lady. You could add a solitaire diamond pendant to the studs if you wish.

A complete set of the earlier mentioned bracelet, coupled with similar earrings and pendant in heart or star shape would make a complete gift. This holds the promise of becoming a perfect heirloom that could be passed on to generations that follow.

If you think it’s only the little girls you can dress up, you’re mistaken. A dolphin pendant with a bright blue aquamarine sitting pretty at the centre would become any little boy, especially as blue is associated to bubbly blue-eyed boys. A similar pendant in the shape of a teddy bear would be equally enthralling. He would also look quite handsome in the bracelets we talked of earlier.

Now, having selected the perfect gift for the little one, it is time to actually give it. Wait till you place it on the little plump palm. You’re sure to be rewarded with the most beatific smile you’ve ever seen. What more could you have possibly ask for.
