Home » Babies » Baby Gifts » Super-practical giftsIf you are selecting a gift for a new mom or dad and you know that the family is on a tight budget, you might consider a huge gift basket--such as a laundry basket--filled with practical items like diaper, wet wipes, baby toiletries, bottles and drinking cups, and so forth. Believe it or not, it can cost over $2000 for a parent to purchase diapers from infancy until the time the child is potty trained! Diapers for newborns tend to be more costly because they have to be changed so frequently. A simple basket can be turned into an attractive gift with bright cellophane and big bows, as well as few, small cute toys that let the mother know that you weren't just thinking entirely "practically" for the new baby. Another thoughtful gift is something for the new mom. For the new mom, having a new baby means pouring out all of her energy on the little one, so little treats like gift certificates for a spa treatment or manicure help remind the new mom that she is important, too.
