Holiday Gift Guide For Babies 2022

November 3, 2022

Putting together this gift guide for babies was so fun, probably because it's been years since I shopped for a baby, and wow, did it make my heart ache! Everything in this guide is going to make any baby (and parent) happy. So whether you're shopping for your own baby or somebody else's baby, here are some cute, tiny things to gift this Holiday season.

Every baby needs a "Baby's First Christmas" ornament. It's tradition! This framed one is so precious, and you can add a photo of the sweet babe.

2. Musical Llama $43

Year after year this Llama catches my eye. Nothing could be more fun and more cute. Your kids' stuff doesn't have to be an eyesore!

3. Snowsuit $40

Put a chubby baby in a puffy snowsuit and I'm dead. The ears are darling, and it comes in 5 different colors. Such a perfect, practical gift.

This crinkle activity book with little baby animals is so darling. A soft, squishy book with lots of things to touch and pull at is every baby's dream come true.

A darling baby teddy bear beanie? I just know this feels as soft as it looks, and I just want to tuck a little baby head into it. Comes in 4 different colors, but this brown one is my fav.

The books that our parents read to us as babies stay with us forever and ever, and nothing is quite as nostalgic as Winnie the Pooh. This book is personalized with the baby's name and appears throughout the stories, and it comes in a beautiful keepsake box. Adorable.

Even the babies get a fidget toy. This paint palette pop-it is darling and I'm obsessed with the timeless muted colors. Really aesthetically pleasing design for the parent who cares about those things.

Nothing says "Merry Christmas" more than a classic jack-in-the-box, and the Paddington bear makes it even more darling.

Manhattan toy company really knows how to do toys right. My babies would have tossed and chased this around for hours and it's super safe for those gummy babies who put everything in their mouths.

Stop it right now with these soft, organic play fruits. Put these in a little wicker basket, and you're all set for a play picnic!

I know babies don't need shoes, but I can't help myself. Plus, is there really anything cuter than a baby in booties? I think not. Perfect for keeping those tootsies warm in the winter.

I love an aesthetically pleasing toy like this rainbow stacker! Fun to play with, but it would also look adorable stacked on a dresser or book shelf.

13. Push Along Toy $139

Another gorgeous wooden toy I would be happy to have out on display rather than tucked away in a closet. There are so many little activities to be done, and everything is cuter than a button.

This Moby plushie is supposed to mimic mom's heartbeat and play soothing melodies or white noise. Set your preferred time for the music to start, and it automatically starts playing again when it detects the baby's cry.

I love a clean fresh baby wrapped up in a hooded animal towel and these wraps look even more plush and comfy than a regular towel. My favorite is either the teddy bear or the raccoon.

16. Bear Lovey $45

Every baby needs a lovey to hold and take with them everywhere This lovey will be the perfect Holiday gift for any baby and it looks so cuddly and plush.

Canadian Cowboy: Not Your Average Western Look

I loved seeing fresh takes on Western wear. It goes to show there's room for fashion in every aesthetic. Recently I saw this funny interview with Brett Goldstein of Ted Lasso fame.

This post is not sponsored and all opinions are my own. Nothing matches a beautiful wooden cutting board (our Boos board lives on my counter—it's a piece of art and sturdy as an ox).

How to Perfectly Cook a Steak in Any Kitchen
