I thought I shopped too much before I had kids. Now I have to stop myself spending a small fortune on beautiful must-have baby products. Roll on Christmas when we can do some guilt-free shopping and finally justify buying all those super cute outfits and toys! What’s more, i’ve scoured the internet for the most unique and practical gifts that aren’t ordinarily in high street shops, so you’re almost guaranteed to buy the present that no one else has brought!
Jeep Shopping Cart & High Chair Cover
If you want to buy a Mummy a unique and brilliant gift this Christmas, look no further than this shopping trolley chair cover! There have been several occasions when one of my boys have bashed their head/arm/leg on the metal trolley, or come off with lines imprinted into their back – not ideal. This cover is the perfect solution to uncomfortable trolley seats, and may even save a whine or two during a weekly shop!
Carlo’s Gelato Toy Ice Cream Parlour
I have two boys – aged 3 and 6 – and surprisingly they both absolutely love ice-cream and cake-making sets. It’s not a gift that you would immediately find or think of, so it’s unlikely that your recipient already has it. Designed to boost imaginary play and perfect for girls and boys, children will love this super cute toy!
£18 from The Great Little Trading Company
Girls 7 Pack Sock Box
You can never have enough baby socks. Why buy plain boring socks when you can pick up these cute animal designs? A perfect, unique gift for a new mum and baby.
3-in-1 Baby Changing Bag, Cot and Changing Station
If you’ve ever stayed away overnight with a newborn baby, you’ll know that you’ll need a day to prepare and pack a heap of equipment that takes up at least 10 times as much space than the tiny human that requires it. Cut out 2 bulky items with this 3-in-1 baby changing bag! It transforms into a comfortable carry cot with padded mattress, and can also be used as a changing station.
The bag has four large storage compartments, one of which is equipped with isothermal covers to keep the baby’s bottles and meals at a constant temperature. An amazingly brilliant and practical gift for a new Mum.
Cosy Snow Boots
Winter is pretty much here and even if we don’t get snow, these little boots will be perfect for tiny toes in the cold. With an easy pull-on tab at the back and cosy sherpa lining, £12.95 is a steal for these cute and essential snow boots!
Robin Stripe Baby Leggings
Aren’t these just the cutest leggings? I LOVE the fact that they’re suitable for boys too, and they look super warm comfortable for little bottoms and gorgeous leg rolls!
Dolls House Emporium Cumberland Castle
The ultimate dolls house (or castle), the cumberland castle boasts having ‘gothic-inspired splendour, perfect for medieval and fairytale story setting’!
The impressive wooden castle features 5 large rooms with 2 battlement areas, ‘stone’ mullioned windows and a sturdy fortified entrance door, as well as turrets and a lookout tower. Whether you’re buying a fairytale dream for a girl or a knights play house for a boy, this has got to be one of the most extravagant and unique dolls houses out there. A genuinely beautiful gift for a special Christmas.
