18 Baby’s First Christmas Gifts That Will Actually Get Used

I cannot say enough good things about this toy! This activity cube is the one I alluded to at the beginning that my kids just LOVE!

It has so many different activities on it, that appeal to a wide age range of kids that you will certainly get your money’s worth out of this toy. If you only get one toy this year for your baby or toddler, make it this one; it's a great gift idea!

My 5 year old who loves animals had a blast with this toy for many years! It's just so much fun!

Welcome your new little one with this cute and customized baby's first Christmas ornament! It's made from wood, so you'll never have to worry about it breaking. This idea will make the perfect gift for new parents to welcome their newest bundle of joy!

Activity gyms are the perfect way to entertain even the youngest of babies and they’re also great for older babies who need some tummy time. This one is a favorite of mine because it’s not an eyesore in your living room, it’s made of sturdy wood (we love wooden toys!), and it doesn’t have any obnoxious sounds.

Ho, ho, ho! The festive season is here, and we've got just the thing to fill up your shopping cart!

This delightful rattle is one of the shop's best sellers and for good reason! It's not just a soft toy; each rattle has a wooden ring and a gentle bell ringing inside.

Just picture the look on your baby's face as they unwrap this fantastic gift on Christmas morning. Add this to your list of meaningful gifts and spread a little extra cheer this holiday season.

These books are pure genius! I went through so many books with my boys because they tore paper books and ate every board book (seriously, it looked like we had a dog). These books are tear-proof, chew-proof, and non-toxic. They’re basically the perfect books for babies.

And they're a great way to help your preschool or kindergarten kids become little bookworms!

Yay! Christmas is nearly here and it's time to score some major points with the perfect gift for your little champ! Say hello to this adorable playset for baby boys.

The bag can be personalized with up to 9 letters, making it an extra special keepsake. Just imagine your son's face when he sees his name on his very own sports bag. It's a touchdown moment for sure!

The customer reviews say it all—parents are cheering for this fantastic gift! And the best part? Free shipping! This fun gift is personalized and delivered straight to your doorstep at no extra cost.

Make your son's first December a happy 1st Christmas with this cute gift!

I’ve talked about Sophie before in this post about the best baby shower gift ideas because she is one of the best teethers on the market. She’s made of 100% natural rubber, food paint, and individually hand-painted. Plus, my teething monster loved chewing on her ears! It's a fun alternative to a teething ring.

We've found the perfect gift for your little one's first Christmas celebration! It's a mix of fun and learning that will make your baby boy's first Christmas unforgettable!

This adorable puzzle is more than just a toy. It's a colorful, engaging way to help your child learn their name while also having a blast with the adorable animal pieces. It's perfect for Christmas Eve playtime or anytime really!

But don't just take our word for it. This unique gift has received glowing 5-star reviews from happy parents praising its quality and charm.

This learning stuffed animal has been a favorite of both of my kids because of its features. Scout sings songs, talks and plays music that is customizable to your child.

You can put in things like your child's name, their favorite colors, foods and more and Scout will include it in his songs. I bought one of these for each of my kids when they were babies and my boys were still interested in them until they were about 4 years old.

Wooden stacking toys are a great toy for babies because they can really grow with them. When they're very young, they can admire the colors and practice gross motor skills like hand-eye coordination.

But as they get older, they’ll be able to learn to stack and put them in the correct order.

This gift is best for toddlers, although it can also double as cute nursery decor. I love that this fox is plush and different from the standard horse.

It's a perfect present for little kids who love foxes and is a fun way to encourage imaginative play.

I wish I would have had these interactive baby books when my boys were younger. These books are bright and fun for babies to learn. Double thumbs up.

This carrot teether is adorable, simple, and of course, safe for babies. It’s made with food grade silicone. This is one of my go-tos for new baby gifts.

The Bumbo is a great product for babies who are learning to sit up on their own. I think of this gift more for mom (since it helps keep baby occupied for a bit), but babies also love being able to be in a new position and check out everything around them.

My only cautions with the Bumbo are to be sure you don’t use it too much and be aware if you have chubby-legged babies that they may not be able to use it for very long (I know this from personal experience).

Yes, there are two activity gyms on this list. But I couldn’t decide which one I prefer. This sweet baby gym is more traditional looking, but I love that it plays on the teepee trend.

You can use the teepee sticks to display overhead objects for when your baby is on his back or you can take them down and simply use the floor mat. Plus, look how cute those little woodland creatures are!

We love personalized ornaments, and this snow globe is the cutest addition to our collection. The moon and stars theme is perfect for a baby's first Christmas, and having their name engraved on it makes it even more special. Our favorite part is it isn't just for Christmas! Your little one can keep this snow globe on display all year long.

Have you ever seen a more adorable ornament? This personalized shaker ornament is perfect for commemorating baby's first Christmas. It can be customized with their birth information, including where they were born, their weight, and at what time. It's the perfect Christmas gift that any new mom or dad will love hanging on their Christmas tree to treasure for years to come.

We all want to remember our newborn babies little hands and feet, and this kit makes it easy to do just that. It comes with everything you need to create a lasting impression of your baby's tiny prints. It's the perfect gift for baby's first holiday season and can be displayed in a nursery or kept as a cherished keepsake.
