If you know someone who’s expecting a baby (or are expecting yourself – congratulations!), you’re likely wondering about a thoughtful gift for the parents-to-be. While registries make it easy and convenient, a locally picked gift is just more fun! Cincinnati has lots of boutiques, businesses and services that make perfect gifts for new babies – and parents!
Here’s our guide to the best baby gifts in Cincinnati:
For budding bibliophiles
Get baby started reading early with a Blue Manatee Box! Choose a theme and let Blue Manatee’s expert booksellers pick the perfect books for you! The JingleBox is perfect for babies due around the holidays, and the CritterBox features some of the most beloved children’s classics of all time!
For the littlest Star Wars fans
The crocheted hats from Stuck On You Crochet are absolutely adorable and would make the perfect gift for Star Wars fans! Choose from a Storm Trooper or BB-8. (Not a Star Wars fan?! Choose a handmade hat sporting your favorite woodland creature, local college team, unicorn or Sesame Street character!)
For the newest Cincy Kids
For proud Ohio parents
For snuggle bugs
For Cincy’s tiniest #TeamFiona fans
For future fashionistas
For mom
After 40+ weeks of carrying around a tiny basketball – and then going through labor – a new mom is probably feeling quite achy. Get her a gift certificate for a gentle massage or pedicure – Woodhouse Day Spa in Montgomery will give the new mom a relaxing, peaceful, well-deserved break.
