A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

When you are pregnant with your first baby, you have a baby shower to celebrate!  Fast forward to baby number 2 and the baby shower becomes a baby sprinkle.  You likely have all the big ticket items (such as a crib) from the first baby, but you find that people still want to celebrate your impending arrival.  We recently held a baby sprinkle for my sister's second baby (a girl!).  I realized that from a gift giver's point of view, picking out a great gift for a baby sprinkle can be intimidating - who knew?  

To help my fellow gift giver's out there, I've come together with some of my favorite shops to create this Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide! 

 

DELICIOUS TREATS

Hello Sweet Pies

These pie pops are ahhhhhmazing!  They make for the perfect mama-to-be treat, and double as unique and delicious favors for guests.  They arrive straight to your door and can be refrigerated for 5 days (or frozen for up to 3 months).  The lattice design is so detailed and beautiful, you almost don't even want to eat them!  Flavors available include blueberry, apple, strawberry, blackberry, sweet cherry, pear and honey, & peach.  They also offer 3 different designs:  classic (as shown above), heart & Mickey Mouse shaped pie pops!

NECESSITIES 

Bambo Nature USA Diapers, Wipes & Skincare

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

This entire line of Bambo products is simply amazing.  I've been using them on my little guy for over a year now and will never go back to main stream brands.  Bambo Nature diapers are not only eco-friendly, but also free of harmful chemicals and all known allergens while their wipes are free of perfumes, parabens and dyes.  They just released their new natural and organic skincare line and leave you reassured that your little one's skin is well taken care of.

Oogiebear

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

This new product is amazing.  Probably one of the grossest things any new parent will ever love!  This is the first booger removal tool that safely and gently removes both sticky and dried boogers fro a child's nostrils.  It was developed with comfort in mind, offering two unique ends to remove boogers effectively to help children breathe easier and soothe when in discomfort.

Colgate Kids Contour Changing Pad

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Colgate's contour changing pad turns any flat surface into a baby changing station, which is a great option for those who have small rooms and simply have no room available for a crib, dresser and changing table.  The changing pad's white, quilted cover cleans easily with a damp cloth and mild soap (because we all know that accidents are bound to happen).  It comes equipped with a  safety strap, and screws to attach the changing pad and is made right here in the USA!

Angelcare Bath Support

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

This Angelcare Bath Support takes the worry out of bath time. It was designed for comfort with its soft mesh ergonomic design and is mildew-resistant and hygienic. The Angelcare Bath Support is recommended for babies up to 6 months of age.  I especially love that it comes with a hook to make storage easy because we all know what a pain it is to have baby things laying about!

MAM Feed and Sooth Set

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Saving bottles and pacifiers from your first child is not always the best idea so adding new bottles and pacifiers to your baby sprinkle list is a must.  This Mam self and soothe set is perfect for both breastfeeding and formula babies.  The anti-colic bottle comes with a leak proof cap, a soft silicone nipple and self-sterilizes in 3 easy steps!  Both the bottles and the pacifiers are BPA free.   

B Box Baby Diaper Caddy

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

This light and portable change station ensures you have everything you need for diaper changing wherever you are around the home. Great space saver for apartment living and ideal for two-story homes (we use this downstairs).  It even works well for travel in the car - no need to dig through a full diaper bag! 

Cloud B Sleep Sheep

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Experienced parents know that having a sound machine playing white noise is a must - especially when there is an older (louder) sibling in the house.  Cloud b has you covered with their adorable sound soothers that are equipped with 8 soothing sounds and melodies.  I actually have 1 of these for each child - they love them!

NURSING ESSENTIALS FOR A NURSING BASKET
A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Bamboobies Products  

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Experienced nursing moms from all around the world can tell you that there are three absolute necessities when it comes to nursing.  Nipple balm, nursing pads and a great nursing bra.  Bamboobies has all of these items and come highly recommended from almost every nursing mom I know.  Their nursing pads are incredibly soft and leak resistant to avoid those embarrassing new nursing mom moments and their Nipple Balm is 100% organic, so you can rest easy knowing that you are able to protect and help heal sore nipples without any toxic ingredients being exposed to your little one.  Nursing bras can be incredibly awkward, uncomfortable and just very unappealing in general.  With Bamboobies Nursing Brahhh, you get the support you need in a breathable, softer and eco-friendly than cotton or nylon nursing bra.  ***You can shop Bamboobies using promo code BAMBOOBIES20OFF to save 20% off your purchase thru 7/19/17***

Mom Life Must Haves Water Bottle & Coffee Tumbler

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

Nursing moms must stay hydrated.  In fact, its recommended that a nursing mom drink an 8oz glass of water each time she sits to nurse.  Water is essential to help keep a nursing moms milk supply up, so why not spoil mom a little with a super cute water bottle?  Its made from stainless steel and is durable enough to throw into the diaper bag while you are on the go and holds a generous 24oz at a time!  I've also included their Coffee Tumbler because, well, babies wake up... a lot.  While I know its not recommended to drink more than 2 cups a day while nursing, this was incredibly useful for myself (both in my early days of nursing, and even now as we are weaning).  ***You can shop Mom Life Must Haves using promo code NICOLEBANUELOS to save 15% off your purchase!***

KEEPSAKES

 

Polka Dot Print Shop Baby Book

A Baby Sprinkle Gift Guide

My first born is almost 17 years old.  Every time I pull out his baby book, I laugh.  It was so large and frankly, kind of an eyesore.  When I came across this adorable mermaid themed baby book from The Polka Dot Print Shop, I just knew my sister had to have it!  These books were made by a mama of 4 who understood how daunting baby books could be so she simplified the process to make documenting memories quick, simple and to the point!
