At birth, as a rule, relatives and friends give soft toys and beautiful sets of first clothes for the baby. Of course, this is touching, but sometimes it is absolutely unnecessary, because parents are now preparing a dowry for their miracle in advance. And therefore, you should think about how to make a gift to a newborn boy not only beautiful, but also useful.
The first idea. "Pampers cake"
Not to say that the idea is original in itself, but it can be beaten with taste and, most importantly, with profit. The first thing you need is a package of diapers. Next, you need to include imagination and determine which content and decor will please parents. You can use sets of the first toys,
baby towels, outfit sets, baby cosmetics.
How to make such a gift for a newborn with your own hands? The technology is pretty simple. First you need to carefully roll all the diapers into separate tubes, securing them with elastic bands. Then form the tiers of the “cake”, using, for example, feeding bottles as the center. Moreover, the height of the latter in this case should be 4/3 of the diaper height. By the way, for a three-tiered cake of such bottles you need two pieces.
To decorate such a gift for a newborn boy, you will need blue, blue or green terry towels. They will mask the diapers. And for decoration, you can use rattles, little teddy bears or socks rolled up in roses.
The second idea. “Album of the first year”
Such a gift to a newborn boy can be purchased at the store. However, if the donor possesses at least the initial scrapbooking skills, then he can be created independently.
So, in order to determine what kind of creative album will take, you should think in advance which sections to include in it. The easiest way to do this is already held parents. If the donor does not have such an experience, the hint should be sought in store options.
The album itself is easiest to arrange in the form of a stylized notebook, but with high mastery of scrapbooking, you can give it the form of a stroller or car.
Tip: so that this gift to a newborn boy, created with his own hands, be not only aesthetic, but also practical, it should provide stylized compartments for a tag from the hospital, for stranding hair or casts of the boy’s hands and feet.
The third idea. "Developing rug"
Of course, many may argue that such a gift to a newborn boy is not entirely suitable. But, having shown imagination, and also having read the necessary literature, you can independently create such an option that is useful to parents already in the first month of their child's life.
You can create such a rug using a minimal set of materials: one hoop, fleece fabric of different tones and colors, hypoallergenic filler, orthopedic pillow. Sewing a rug should be based on the shape of industrial designs, using a pillow as the top on which the baby’s head will be located. On the arcs, you can use toys with special clothespins to fix toys from the mobile. On such a rug, a little boy will be pleased not only to spend hours of wakefulness, but also to sleep sweetly, being in a comfortable position under the supervision of his parents.
In conclusion, we can say that making a pleasant, and most importantly, useful present for a baby is simple. Enough to show imagination.
