As we all know, there is a little thing called Christmas only around the corner next week. It is inevitable that there will be gift that you have either forgotten to buy or simply haven’t because you don’t have any ideas. But for some, this Christmas will be either the first or one of the first with a new addition to the family. Christmas is a great time for family but can also be a stressful time as well. Therefore, if you are struggling for a Christmas gift for friends that have just become parents then here are a few ideas.
Something Different
It may not be well known but there are specific pieces of jewellery that are made to help children with teething pain. As we all aware, teething can be a stressful time for both parent and child with the child constantly in pain and making sure they let their parents know about it! If one of your friends is experiencing this with their child then amber jewellery might be worth considering as a surprise gift. It is a gift that has the potential of relieving a lot of stress and will be something the recipient may not have heard of.
Something Useful
New parents are always in the need for new or updated gear to care for their child. It is something they may not necessarily get round to rectifying due to the day to day stresses of caring for a child. Therefore it may be a very thoughtful gift to get them something that they genuinely need. Britax Travel Systems would make a great gift for a new parents as it is something of use and is a welcome contribution to their child’s life.
A Day Out
Planning a day out where you can involve the whole family is a really great idea as a Christmas present. It gives the parents a chance to get out of the house and enjoy some quality time out of the house. It also gives you the chance to get to know the child and treat them to a fun day out. Theme parks and zoos are a great option for this kind of day out as there is fun there for younger and older people.
