23 *adorable* baby boy gifts that mum and baby will love
Whether you're looking to congratulate a loved one who's recently given birth, or you're getting ahead on your Christmas shopping, we've found the perfect baby boy gifts to spoil a newborn baby boy close to you. Whether he belongs to you, your friend or a family member, you’ve come to the right place to find new baby boy gifts for the little one.
Having searched for baby gifts ourselves before, we know just how overwhelming it can be. There’s so many options out there for the little boy in your life – and how do you know what they’ve already got and how much to spend? Well, fear not. Our edit below covers all bases and budgets across a large variety of gifts for baby boys, and all of them are guaranteed to be useful (which always buys brownie points from the parents), fun, or downright CUTE. Or all three.
Particular highlights? We've found plush toys to help with their development, like this wooden activity table featuring a fun maze game or this activity cube from John Lewis. Of course, going for the classic teddy bear is always a failsafe option, and we particularly love this adorable monkey from The White Company's gift box, or this Merrythought personalised Shrewsbury teddy bear which they'll cherish for years to come.
Worried about doubling up on something they might already have? Well, no parent can ever have enough bibs, teethers, baby boy clothes or muslins. These Arket bibs are particularly cute – and great if you’re on a budget. If you’re wanting to spend a bit more on something they’ll love for a long time to come, this John Lewis wooden trike is a gorgeous baby boy gift to suit a variety of ages. Elsewhere, we've found baby books, pyjamas and a few lovely baby boy gift sets. Newborns (OK, their parents) will love this Once Upon A Foxx Mummy & Me Bathtime Gift Set from Selfridges… or how about this other bathtime hamper with treats from Little Herds and Liewood?
