I just got back from a baby shower today where a thought occurred to me. I noticed that everyone at the party gave multiple items. Not just one layette, but several. Not just a dress, but coordinating socks and sweater cover. It made me feel a little odd that I gave a Babies R Us gift card, but I knew that the mom-to-be already had a ton of baby things and she might appreciate a gift card when baby finally comes and something got overlooked. Still, I felt a little weird.
If you’re thinking of giving a diaper bag gift at a baby shower and that will be your only gift, I’ve got a great solution for you to help you avoid the weird feeling I experienced today. Give a diaper bag gift set. These are sets that include not only the diaper bag, but also accessories like changing pad, purse or clutch, and pacifier holder.
JP Lizzy is one brand that offers cute diaper bag gift sets perfect for baby shower gifts. The JP Lizzy Strawberry Truffle Diaper Tote Set is just one such bag set. It includes the diaper tote, changing pad, cosmetic bag, and coin purse/wristlet. 4 gifts in one available at eBags.com.
Another cute diaper bag gift set is the 5-in-1 Diaper Bag Set from Baby Boom. This bag includes everything you need to take baby on the road: diaper bag, mini tote, bottle holder, changing pad, and dirty duds pouch. This bag set is available at Babies R Us.
