If you’re celebrating your Baby’s First Christmas, congratulations! You’re in the right place for Baby’s First Christmas Gift Ideas :).
Experiencing Christmas as a parent is SO magical and it’s so much fun to be the maker of that magic for your child.
But – honestly – it can be hard to shop for First Christmas gifts; after all, babies don’t need a ton, aside from the essentials, and it’s likely that your baby is going to be spoiled by well-meaning friends and family.
If you’ve ever wondered – ‘What do you get a baby for their first Christmas?!’ or ‘Do you buy your baby Christmas presents?’ (I think yes, but totally up to you!) or ‘What do you buy a baby for Christmas?’ or ‘What are good stocking stuffers for babies?‘ – I’ve got you covered!
In this baby’s first Christmas gift guide, I have a mix of fun and practical – perfect for any baby girl or baby boy’s first Christmas.

Adorable, perfect 5 star reviews, and a GREAT price! Such a great way to start saving some cash for baby. This piggy bank would be gorgeous in a nursery with any style decor!

Trust me, you’ll want this hanging on your tree every year. Make your own footprint or handprint keepsake ornament without any baking or mixing. Easy and has great reviews.
21 // Skip Hop Play Center
Another favorite of Auggie’s in his first year! Bonus is that it’s pretty cute.

Loverey takes the guesswork out of age-appropriate toys for babies – this would make an amazing gift!

An absolutely darling idea, especially if the Grandparents are far… a recordable book where you record your voice and it ‘reads’ the book to your little one.
Best Baby’s First Christmas Stocking Stuffers
1 // Bell Ornament
each of my kids has a personalized bell ornament from my Aunt and they’re some of my favorites on the tree! Each child loves looking for his/her special bell ornament and I love that they are personalized. Totally an heirloom piece that any baby will appreciate for years to come! And a great non-toy gift to give!
2 // Personalized Baby Block
one of my girlfriends gifted us this personalized baby block after Emmy was born – it includes her initial, stats, full name, and is such a cute keepsake. This is a perfect gift for baby’s first Christmas but also makes a great new baby gift!

ALL of my kids are addicted to yogis, it’s a no-brainer to put some in baby’s stocking!

Trust me, divided plates will save you a LOT of arguments someday :). These are a great deal – love that they’re silicone instead of plastic – and come in a bunch of color combos!
13 // Teething Wafers
All of my kids LOVED these teething wafers when they started solids! Easy to toss in a stocking.

That little bike was a gift to our daughter when she turned one…she’s nearing 3 and still loves it (though her legs are getting long). It’s really good quality so could easily be handed down after a great year of daily use. Highly recommend!!!
Elisa says
Very nice article, one gift idea I love to give when a friend of mine has a baby, or that I love to buy for my 8 month old son, are the stuffed animals! Plushies are great gifts and are beneficial to a child’s development.
