New baby gifts: bamboo muslins, weaning sets & natural baby care

Choosing new baby gifts

Practical new baby gifts get used every day, so think about what parents run out of or need in a bigger size later. Muslins, sleepsuits in the next size up and a soft hooded towel are always welcome. Check the age guidance and materials on each listing, and choose soft, washable fabrics for anything worn next to the skin. Mama Bamboo makes the largest share of the baby gifts here, alongside Silvan Skincare, The Sabi and Wild & Stone. We checked each brand for clear information on materials and ingredients.

Newborn baby gifts to wear and use

Mama Bamboo makes luxury bamboo muslins, bamboo sleepsuits and babygrows, a bamboo weaning set and a soft bamboo baby hairbrush. SilverGuard makes an organic cotton hooded baby towel, and So Just Shop sells a knitted llama wool blanket. Leiho makes matching baby and me bamboo socks, and Vove makes baby konjac sponges. These newborn baby gifts suit a first visit, and the larger sizes last into the first year.

Weaning sets and teethers

Wild & Stone makes a bamboo baby weaning bowl and spoon set, a suction plate set and a natural rubber elephant teether. Green Island makes a baby bowl and spoon set and a hippo silicone teething ring. Weaning usually starts at around six months, so a weaning set makes a thoughtful gift for a baby who is a few months old. Habulous makes a sun, moon and stars hanging decoration, which suits a baby's first Christmas.

Gifts for new mums and personalised baby gifts

Silvan Skincare makes a Mum to Be skincare bundle and Mama's Balm, SKNFED makes a newborn baby balm, and The Sabi makes herbal tea sets for new parents. Give Yourself Kindness makes new mum affirmation cards, and The Mood Club makes a Sweet Memories notebook for first moments. For personalised baby gifts, Habulous makes birth flower and name mugs by hand. Patch test any balm first, and speak to a health visitor about anything for a newborn's skin. Baby Gifts has more presents for babies, Feeding & Weaning has weaning sets, Baby & Kids Bath has baby bath time, and Eco-friendly activities for kids that are actually fun has ideas for later on.
