Have you been invited to a baby shower or asked to be a godparent to a new arrival and have no idea what sort of gift to buy? Recently I was in a dilemma about what presents to buy for newborn twins. My first instinct was to buy identical gifts, but I suddenly realised that these were two individuals who should be encouraged to recognise their own unique personalities. I decided the answer was to buy personalized gifts that the children would see as their own when they grew older.

Free catalogs - personalized baby gifts

Nowadays, if you look online, you will discover there are a lot of free catalogs of personalized baby gifts for babies and children, from toys, such as wooden rocking horses and Name Trains -The Parent's Choice Award Winning Wooden Gifts and Toys.
You could prefer useful items like personalized baby blankets, monogrammed bath robes and personalized diaper bags. Of course many people like to give the traditional favorites, an engraved silver baby cup or monogrammed spoon and fork. When I started searching I was spoilt for choice.

As the twins were newborn my personal favorite toys were personalized baby bears wearing sweaters embroidered with baby's name. I remember my Nan giving me a baby bear wearing a sweater she had knitted with "Ted" embroided on it, he was a much loved friend. Had the twins been a bit older I really liked the name trains, each carriage in the shape of a letter. I have always found that wooden trains are very sturdy and will withstand years of rough treatment. I know trains may be thought of as a boy's toy, but young girls in my family have always enjoyed them and why be sexist if you are buying for a girl!.

If you want to spend a little more, nursery furniture is always useful and I was particularly keen on the personalized rocking chairs and toy boxes. Moms and Dads immediately think of a crib and buggies when a new arrival is expected, but they rarely plan storage until the nursery is littered. A big laundry bag is a good idea and can be used to store anything!

Of course you could buy a baby gift basket. But why not make one up yourself using a memory keepsake, such as a personalized album that Mom can keep, and adding other small useful items. Mom will appreciate the fact that you cared enough to make it yourself.

Finally do remember that if there are older children in the family they are probably feeling a little left out, however much they may love the new arrival. Buy them something small as well, Personalized Children's Books are very popular. Even if they are teenagers, they are still children and would appreciate a new T-shirt or a baseball cap with a great logo, not personalized though! Once they are happy you can enjoy cuddling the baby - or babies!
What did I finally choose for the twins? I'll leave you to guess.
