Things to consider before purchasing baby clothes

Posted by Canada Gift Baskets on December 24th, 2020

Many of us love to gift new parents with baby clothes. And why won't we, the tiny clothes are too adorable to ignore? In fact, many Baby Gift Baskets have tiny onesies and pyjamas that amplifies the cuteness of the gift baskets.

But we must know that babies are tiny humans that just made their entry in the new world. As a matter of fact, the parents get bombarded with different clothing items even before the baby is born. And sometimes, not all the clothes make past the closet for many reasons. 

So, today we will share with you a few things that you must consider before choosing clothing items as a gift for a newborn baby. 

1- Be practical:

First things first, we all know that a month-old baby won't sport an extravagant cloth with matching goggles. And even if the parents do cloth the baby in those outfits, the baby will outgrow it sooner or later. So, waste money on those?

Instead, go for tiny rompers or onesies. 

2- Check the sizes before purchasing:

Children outgrow their clothes more often. So, it is always better to gift clothes a size or two up. But, make a calculated choice. For instance, if a baby is born in June and you end up buying 7-month sandals and sundresses, then the parents won't get a chance to dress those outfits, resulting in them sitting in the closet. 

3- Avoid spending a fortune:

Babies spit and blow their diapers now and then. That means a fortune spent clothes may look adorable until the clothes smell like puke. So, avoid spending a lot and settle for an average budget because buying baby gifts isn't about competing with others. 

4- Avoid fancy fabrics:

Babies have sensitive skin. Even the tiniest mixture of non-hypoallergenic material can lead to rashes and irritation of the skin. So, it is always wise to stick with 100% cotton clothes when buying clothes for newborn babies. 

5- Invest in something more useful:

New parents are always looking for essential items over clothes and shoes. You can always gift the new parents with gift cards of the baby stores so they can choose what they want. Or invest in gift baskets that are filled with everything right from diapers to clothes and even plush toys. 

Bottom line

We know that it be tempting to purchase all the tiny human clothes displayed over the online shops and retail stores. But it isn't necessary that the clothes you buy may be worn by the baby. So, use our article as a guide for purchasing the best.
