If you are in the market for a baby present there is certainly a wide variety on the market today. Whether the baby is a newborn or is a few months old there are so many different colors and patterns that it is difficult to make a choice. However, some precautions should be taken when when choosing the gift.

If the child is a newborn then the baby present you buy should not be restricted to newborn clothing. Babies grow so rapidly that many times some of the gifts they receive are never worn. You need to think out of the box and if you are purchasing clothing then purchase for 12 to 18 months. This will assure the fact that the gift will be used.

If the baby has not been born yet then there is the problem of color. If the mother-to-be knows, and has informed everyone, regarding the sex of the expected child then there is no problem. Its always been blue for boys and pink for girls although there are many designs and patterns that just incorporate these colors.

If you do not know the sex then choosing something with a mixed pattern that will fit in with either one is appropriate. It can be yellow ...
... with flowers that have pink and blue or one of the many interwoven colors. The mother would not want to be carrying her baby girl in a blue blanket and have people remarking about what a cute boy she has. These colors are an old fashioned idea but it still prevails.

Baby blankets are always a welcomed gift. Today they are beautifully decorated with animals, cartoon characters and many other attractive items. You can be sure that, unless it is a wrapping blankets, it will be used for a very long time.

If you are a good seamstress, knitter or crocheter, you might prefer to make the present. If the child is already here and you know the sex there are very cute patterns available today with appropriate materials in the shops. Making a dress, for example, for a little girl will give her a one-of-a-kind garment that no other child has. This makes such a gift especially appreciated and it will be worn with pride. For little boys there are overhauls, shorts and many other appropriate garments that would be welcomed in the same manner.

In choosing a baby present there is no end to the possibilities. Whether store bought, hand made or a basket full of baby items, it will be welcomed by the child's parent with deep appreciation. This is one way that you can show how much it means to you to have a small part in the baby's life.
