Baby Shower Gifts -Toys Under $5
Anytime you want to give mom a different baby shower gift, you can try for the more educational approach, rather than a cute and pretty gift. (Hey all baby shower gifts should be cute and pretty if not practical!)
So how do we select the right baby shower gift thats educational for baby and not break the bank? First of all think about your budget for the baby shower gift. Lets say you want to spend no more than $10. You will also need to buy a baby shower gift with babies future development in mind.
Toys, as a gift for a baby shower is a good idea so lets look at what mom might need. Toys are very cute and entertaining for us but for baby they are purely learning tools. Babies absorb things differently at different rates depening on their physical and psycological development. So choosing an educational toy for the baby shower needs to be done with this in mind.
One important thing that was brought to my attention when I attended my friend Tanyas baby shower was by Dr Katherine Tassioulas. A Physcologist who has studied early development.
She suggested for Tanyas baby shower why didn't I choose a gift that was red, yellow, white or black. When I asked why, she said that these colors are ones that baby notices early at the first stage of their precious development.
Dr Tassioulas suggested I start looking for an educational toy for a baby up to 12 months old for Tanyas baby shower.
In a nuthsell babies that have these toys in front of them tend to want to touch them because their visual senses can detect and distinguish them from other colors. Its also important, said Dr Tassioulas, that in selecting a gift like this for a baby shower, then the toys be more simple the younger the child is, and no little plastic bits that can potential break off and go in babys mouth.
She also advised me that Tanya might appreciate a toy that provided stimulation for her babies sense of touch and sound such as a rattle that jingled and made a nice sound. Like a rattle with a bell, and a yellow or red one at that.
So off I went to find a red or yellow rattle that jingled, for Tanyas baby shower. Not only that but I wanted a soft one so her baby would not injure herself or himself on any sharp or hard bits, this is important because babies get their first teeth pretty quick.
Upon my search I found this website www.theartshowcase.com/baby_rattles_and_baby_...
And on it there was the perfect baby shower gift! It was such a happy looking gift and it was only $3.79 and made of soft terry towling fabric. This means it was easy to clean and easy for baby to chew on.
(No I don't paid a cent for recommending these gift ideas to you by these companies, I just feel good in recommending them to you because they are lovely gifts.)
So always choose a gift that has babies development in mind, good colors, and something that's educational and is easy on their mouths.
Enjoy!
