One of the most inspired and welcomed gifts that you can give to the latest newborn in your life is a baby gift basket. It’s truly a gift that will be enjoyed by the little one and their parents. They can be both fun to put together, if your so inclined. They have an extremely practical side as well. The other big bonus is, they can be made up of just about anything you like. You may want to hold of on the power tool basket for a few years though 
Just to get the creative juices flowing though, here are some terrific themes to get you going.
The Big Slugger Gift Basket
Often considered most appropriate for newborn boys, that thinking is getting a little old fashioned. Being the father of three girls, who all share a love for sports, there’s no reason why a sports themed gift basket can’t be given to both newborn boys or girls. No time like the beginning to break down those old stereotypes. Any little sports themed toys are great for this basket. Baseball, tennis, gymnastics, bicycling, running, basketball or hockey all work well with this theme. Clothes are an easy ticket for this basket, as many popular sports teams sell children and newborn clothes these days.
The Boy / Girl Genius Basket
Why not put together a gift basket with all the tools junior will need to rock the halls of academia. It’s never too early to start hitting the books. There’s all the Baby Einstein products which are great for newborns, and even wonderful to use as the baby grows. Books and music are natural for this type of baby gift basket, but don’t neglect toys as well. Many baby toys these days are designed to be both physically and mentally stimulating. Toddler puzzles of all different shapes and colors will work well here.
Blast Off For Adventure Basket
You can have a lot of fun putting something like this together. Start off with either a hand made or store bought container in the shape of an adventure vehicle. This falls under the category of both cool and unique baby gifts. I like the idea of a space ship, but there’s nothing to say it can’t be a sail boat, a train, a covered wagon, or even a jumbo jet. Know it’s time to think like India Jones, and come up with all kinds of fun adventurous toys to fill up the big adventure ship with. Dress up clothes, books, music and baby movies would all be fantastic additions here.
Can You Feel The Love Basket
Babies are very sensory by nature, so here’s an opportunity let them develop that side of their nature. Baby toys and clothes are often made these days to not just look good, but to feel good to a little ones fingers. Your families new baby will love running their fingers over these items, and will enjoy playing with them even more. Not just baby hands will be used here. Remember that junior loves to pick up things and put them straight to their mouths. It’s one of their very important brain pathways for learning.
Above all remember to have fun and use your imagination. Putting together a great baby gift basket can be fun for you and the little one.
