Bath Time Baby Shower Gifts

Is there a more normal mix than baths and babies? At times it seems that they spend half their early lives splashing around in the bath. For the first three months it's a sponge bath followed by a short tub for the rest of the first year and a regular tub for the next five years. So, let's make life easy for Mom, Dad and baby by giving them all the bath time bits and pieces they will need as newborn baby gift baskets.

Climb out on one of those cold mornings and you will fast discover that a bathrobe is probably the first necessity. Make sure that the baby is warm and comfortable with a gift made of the finest terrycloth and make Mom and baby happy by purchasing one with a design which brings a smile to both their faces.

Even better, give the baby a preview of what is to come later in life by way of a spa baby bath set. Tiny slippers in white, blue or pink that are simply to die for and washcloths that are as soft as those used in Baden Baden when the big girls go for a holiday. However, do not forget that baby has a long way to go first and so also purchase that friendly toy frog which matches the design on those slippers.

Speaking of frogs, how about a four-piece turtle hat box set? A charming pink hat box that is wrapped in a white silk bow makes for the perfect container. The inside you have slippers embossed with those cute little green creatures all nestling alongside a terry washcloth, a 30-inch hooded towel and lots of other goodies.

In the tub there are lots of choices.

Bath soap is a must of course. But how about turning a practical necessity into a delight? Ducky baby soap is the solution. Decorated with baby ducks and scented with herbs, the container itself makes a beautiful keepsake. The soap itself is of course formulated specifically for baby's delicate skin and leaves them with the scent of a garden.

Another fun choice is the beach ball bath set. Created in soft terry, it also boasts a hooded towel and washcloth that make for the perfect combination of hygiene and play. Made from cotton, the items are warm, comfortable and extremely absorbent.

However, before the baby can get out to dry off you will wish to keep them amused in the tub. The puppy puppet is a sure bet when it comes to meeting this objective. And, once they are ready to get out, the matching puppy hooded towel is ready for the job. Soft, sturdy and hilarious, it will tackle its job with fun and style.

Make drying off a warm and easy breeze with a wonderful 3-piece terry set. Manufactured from especially soft velour cotton and embossed with a baseball motif, the hooded towel is just the beginning. A matching baby robe and full-sized bib complete with Velcro latches makes this set luxurious, decorative and practical.

Lastly allow the baby to have a break and revel in the post-bath time with a luxurious play bucket full of fun plush crabs or turtles and watch as those two little eyes brighten with excitement. As a baby shower gift there can be little doubt that baby bath time gifts will be more than appreciated.

Bath time is a great theme for any baby shower but these are just some of the many marvelous baby shower ideas that make this such a fun event these days.
