Don’t you think it’s amazing that even in times of difficulty that the beauty of new life continues? New arrivals into the world are such a gift, a truly special moment that should be celebrated and remembered. Choosing a gift for a new arrival can be tricky so we’ve outlined a few little ideas to help make their arrival into the world just that little bit more special.

My first Teddy
The first Teddy Bear, a really special moment.
Teddy’s are wonderful keepsakes, something that the new arrival can treasure forever. We have a beautiful selection of First Teddies called ‘My First Teddy’ they’re soft, cuddly and come with either a blue, yellow or pink bow. Each Teddy can also be personalised with the baby’s name to make the gift even more special.

A personlised classic
When you think of a Teddy Bear which famous face comes to mind? Winnie the Pooh? Paddington Bear? Yes, us too. We think these Bears make a wonderful gift for a new baby, and are the ideal accompaniment to sit amongst a classic looking nursery.

Something a little quirky
After something memorable and a little different? We’ve got you covered. Cuddly elephants, giraffes, koalas, flamingoes, owls … the list goes on…add a little quirk into the mix and be remembered as the special friend or relative that did things a little differently.

A little comfort
New babies love soft things they can hold and while we are huge advocates of safe sleep adding a comforter to a day time nap can help them adjust to the outside world just that little bit easier. As the baby grows to toddlerhood they can use their comforter at night, providing a special hug from you to them every night.

An extra special memory
We now have ‘voice recording’ teddies, a fantastic idea especially if you can’t currently see the new arrival. A soft and cuddly teddy with that extra bonus of having a special message when you press their tummy. This is such a lovely gift for a new baby and also helps with voice recognition.

We hope these ideas help, do have a browse through our ‘New Baby’ section for a full selection of our gorgeous soft toys. We hope you’re keeping well during this strange time and for the Mamas of lockdown babies enjoy the uninterrupted snuggles! ​
