    29 Baby Shower Gifts That Are Actually Fun

    Because everyone else is just giving a Sophie the Giraffe.

    1. Delicious-looking baby booties that'll make your amazing gift-giving skills all the other shower guests want to ~taco-bout~.

    2. A two-in-one nightlight and sound soother masquerading as a jar filled with fireflies — just because something is actually useful doesn't mean it can't also be cute AF!

    3. A charming map of Neverland the parents-to-be are sure to hang up in a prized place in their nursery. Over a cabinet filled with storybooks perhaps?

    4. A darling Snuggle blanket guaranteed to become baby's new bestie.

    5. A plant-like bottle-drying rack any former plant parent and current....well *actual* parent will appreciate.

    6. A suction-cup silicone placemat plate that'll make any parent say "Well ~owl~ be damned!!" when they realize their kid can't knock their food off the high chair tray anymore!

    7. A ~magical~ onesie sure to turn any tot into a future Hogwarts student.

    8. And some Golden Snitch crib bedding any someday Seeker for the Holyhead Harpies should sleep on.

    9. A faux leather diaper backpack for the parent who doesn't want to sacrifice style when schlepping around all their baby stuff.

    10. Teeny tiny socks designed to look like hiking boots for the child born of outdoorsy parents. They don't know what they've gotten themselves into.

    11. Or a pair of red-bottomed moccasins any Louboutin-lover would adore. Honestly, if no one buys these for Cardi B's baby, I will be so disappointed.

    12. A book of fold-and-mail letters that'll serve as mini time capsules the kid can open when they're all grown up. Hello PRICELESS gift!!

    13. A cushy bathtime helper for the couple who already has an Insta handle picked out for their kid — can you say artfully-arranged photo op? Plus it actually makes bathing a baby bloomin' easy!

    14. A supersoft milestone blanket so they'll remember to take plenty of pics at every stage. They just grow so fast! 😭

    15. A copy of Go the Fuck To Sleep, because the new parents will definitely need a good laugh when they're totally sleep-deprived.

    16. A knit cold brew rattle for the offspring of anyone who drinks iced coffee 365 days a year — now their kid can join in on the fun!

    17. Or a teether shaped like a coffee to-go cup to keep them busy while mommy or daddy gets their fix in the morning. "Just give me a minute."

    18. An album or two of lullaby renditions inspired by the parents' favorite artists (like The Beatles and Fleetwood Mac) — we're talking soothing and non-repetitive music that *won't* make them want to shove cotton balls in their ears.

    19. A mid-century modern rocking chair with a sleek frame but cushioned padding for new parents who whose nursery decor is on point.

    20. A cushy shark-themed bath or beach set that'll make the kid so friggin' adorable you'll just want to take a big ole bite out of 'em. *Cue cute aggression*

    21. A plush elephant mat to make sure they never forget the importance of tummy time (because elephants never forget!!).

    22. A pacifier combined with a stuffed animal, making this both the most delightful thing of all time AND super easy for baby to grab and hold themselves!

    23. A Q&A a Day journal for mom, because it might be nice to give something that isn't just for that lucky kid.

    24. A tortilla hat and blanket set that'll improve their baby-swaddling skills (if they already know how to properly wrap a burrito) or their burrito-wrapping skills (if they already know how to swaddle).

    25. An eight-pack of tongue-in-cheek milestone labels you can attach to their favorite kind of wine — when their baby reaches them (first projectile vomit!!!), they can uncork a bottle and "celebrate!"

    26. A cozy crown to keep your royal niece or nephew's head warm and officially designate you the king or queen of gift-giving — for the same amount of money you'd spend on a fancy card!

    27. A non-toxic, dishwasher safe cactus teether that'll prove you don't ~succ~ at gift-giving when the kid's teeth start to come in.

    28. A board book for scientists in the making, because the person reading aloud deserves to learn a little something, too!

    29. An interactive squirrel stroller toy that'll make entertaining any kid a ~walk in the park~.
