7 best natural baby gifts

Natural baby gifts that are related to early learning and children's books can be a thoughtful and eco-friendly way to welcome a new baby into the world. These gifts prioritize sustainability, safety, and fostering a love for learning in infants and toddlers. Here are some ideas:

  1. Organic Baby Clothes: Consider gifting organic cotton or bamboo baby clothes. These materials are soft, chemical-free, and gentle on a baby's sensitive skin.

  2. Natural Wooden Toys: Wooden toys are classic and durable. Look for toys made from sustainably sourced wood with non-toxic paints or finishes. Items like wooden rattles, stacking blocks, or shape sorters can help with early learning.

  3. Eco-Friendly Diapers: Opt for disposable diapers made from biodegradable or compostable materials, or choose cloth diapers to reduce waste and the environmental impact.

  4. Organic Baby Skincare: Natural and organic baby skincare products like baby lotion, shampoo, and soap can be gentle on a baby's skin and free from harsh chemicals.

  5. Organic Baby Books: Seek out board books made from eco-friendly materials and printed with non-toxic ink. There are also books with themes that encourage early learning, such as shapes, colors, and animal recognition.

  6. Handmade Baby Blankets: Hand-knit or crocheted baby blankets made from organic or natural fibers can be both practical and sentimental gifts.

  7. Subscription to a Children's Book Club: Consider gifting a subscription to a children's book club that delivers age-appropriate books to the baby's doorstep each month.This can foster a love for reading from a young age.

  8. Educational Plush Toys: Look for stuffed animals or plush toys that incorporate educational elements, such as toys that play music, teach numbers, or have interactive features.

  9. Natural Teething Toys: Teething rings or toys made from natural rubber or silicone can provide relief for teething babies without the use of harmful chemicals.

  10. Seedling or Tree Planting Kits: Encourage eco-consciousness by gifting kits that allow parents and children to plant trees or grow their own plants.

  11. Reusable Baby Food Pouches: These pouches are a sustainable way to store homemade baby food and can be a useful gift for parents looking to reduce single-use plastic waste.

  12. Handmade Baby Mobiles: Artisanal baby mobiles made from natural materials can be a beautiful addition to a nursery and provide visual stimulation for babies.

  13. Eco-Friendly Baby Wraps and Carriers: Consider gifting organic cotton or bamboo baby wraps or carriers, which provide a comfortable and eco-friendly way to carry a baby.

  14. Educational Activity Kits: Look for activity kits that promote early learning, such as sensory play kits, building blocks, or shape recognition sets.

These natural baby gifts not only contribute to the well-being of the baby but also align with eco-conscious and educational values, making them thoughtful choices for new parents.

User questions & answers

Question: Is the Captain Calamari book supposed to have peek-a-boo/lift flaps? It says so on the packaging, but I don't see any flaps anywhere in the book
Answer: No it does not have peek-a-boo flaps. There is a mirror on the last page for the baby/child to see themselves, but I never knew the packaging said it was supposed to.
Question: The book I received was sent directly from China, and is of poor quality. Is there a way to ensure the product is authentic if purchase on Amazon
Answer: Write in to customer service. I received a poor quality one, which I thought was fake and they sent a replacement. I compared the second one to those sold in stores, quality about the same. Even those in stores, colors are not bright, prints are not very clear.
Question: I have this book but have not tried washing it yet. Has anyone tried, either by hand or machine? If you did, how did the book handle being washed
Answer: It does say hand wash, but I've thrown them in the washer and dryer on occasion. I don't wash them too much, but an occasional toss in the wash has not been a problem to the book structure. I do have a basic lamaze book that has no words, only different inner textures like the crinkles a rattle and a squeeker. The squeeker has stopped squeeking. I don't know if that's due to washing or overuse. :) Still very usable book.
Question: There is a choking hazard listed on this Peek a Boo Forest but I think it might be a mistake? Please advise
Answer: I don't think anything about this book could present a choking hazard. The beak of the owl sticks out but is sewed on well and I can't imagine any infant or even toddler could pull it off. I have never been worried about my (now) 10 month old with this book.
