Monogrammed Baby Gifts

Personalized Baby Gifts

Although babies grow out of everything in what seems like minutes, every one of those minutes is special and important to a newborn’s parents. Giving monogrammed baby gifts only adds to those special times and helps preserve a memory for years to come. As technology has advanced the choice of items to monogram has become extensive. Some of the more popular items include keepsake items include personalized silver piggy banks, birth certificate holders, feeding sets, brush and comb sets, and keepsake boxes. A symbolic sterling silver rattle with the baby’s name or initials etched into it makes a great heirloom piece that can be passed down from generation to generation.

The clothing industry had made it possible to buy just about anything imaginable with a monogram. Hooded bath towels, shirts, pants, shoes, jogging suites, hats, bibs, quilts, and even nursery linens can have the child’s initials or full name placed on them. Even large corporations such as Disney are providing the option of monogrammed baby gifts, so you can not only put the baby’s name on the gift, but also any Disney character desired. Personalized items take a few weeks to process with some companies so plan ahead, and avoid the embarrassment of having to place an IOU in the gift box due to delayed delivery.

Water globes are a fairly new monogrammed baby gift that can be purchased from keepsake stores. They not only have the name inscribed, but often will have a place for the baby’s photo, and have the option of playing a lullaby. One national chain store that specializes in personalized items actually has a train set with a water globe in each car. This item cost about seventy-five dollars not including the cost of the engraving. No one else is likely to give this unique gift except you.

The list of personalized gift items continues with prayer crosses that not only have the child’s name on it, but a prayer for protection. Frames are probably an over done item, but you can almost guarantee that someone will show up with a silver frame touting the newborn’s name or initials. One new monogrammed gift is a vintage scrapbook to chart the timeline and history of a baby’s growth, and milestones. What a wonderful gift to help preserve those precious newborn memories.
