Can there be any more normal combination than baths and babies? At times it seems they spend half of their life splashing around in the bath. It’s a sponge bath for the first three months followed by a short tub for the remainder of the year and a regular tub for the next five years. So, let’s make life easy for Mom, Dad and baby by giving them all the bath time bits and pieces they are going to need as specialty baby gift baskets.

Get out on a cold morning and you will fast discover that a bathrobe is probably their first necessity. Ensure that baby is both comfortable and warm with a gift made from the finest terrycloth and make Mom and baby happy by getting one with a design that brings a smile to both their faces.

Even better, give the little ones a preview of life to come by way of a spa baby bath set. Miniature slippers in white, blue or pink that are simply to die for and washcloths which are as soft as those used in Baden Baden where the big girls go for a vacation. However, do not forget that baby has a long way to go first and so also order that friendly toy frog to match the design on those slippers.

Speaking of amphibians, how about the four-piece turtle hat box set? A gorgeous pink hat box wrapped in a white silk bow makes for the perfect container. Inside you have slippers embossed with those adorable little hard-shelled green creatures all nestled alongside a terry washcloth, a hooded towel and lots of other goodies.

For the tub there are loads of options.

Bath soap is a must of course. But why not turn that practical necessity into a real pleasure? One answer is duck baby soap. Adorned with baby ducks and scented with English herbs, the container itself will make a wonderful keepsake. The soap is naturally made specially for a baby’s delicate skin and leaves them with the scent of a garden.

The beach ball bath set is another fun choice. Manufactured from soft terry, it is paired with a hooded towel and washcloth which make for the perfect mixture of play and hygiene. All cotton, the items are warm, comfortable and highly absorbent.

But, before the baby can get out to dry off you will certainly wish to be sure to keep them amused in the tub. The puppy puppet is a sure bet when it comes to meeting this goal. And, as soon as they are ready to get out, the matching puppy hooded towel is there and for the job. Soft, sturdy and hilarious, it will tackle its job with style and fun.

And how about making drying off an easy and warm breeze with a lovely 3-piece terry set. Made of exceptionally soft velour cotton and embossed with a baseball motif, the hooded towel is merely the start. A matching infant robe and a full-sized bib incorporating Velcro latches makes the set luxurious, decorative and practical.

Finally let the baby relax and revel in his or her post-bath time with a luxurious play bucket which is full of fun plush crabs or turtles and watch as those two little eyes brighten with excitement. As a baby shower gift there is no doubt that baby bath time gifts will be very much appreciated.

Bath time makes a great theme for a baby shower but these are merely some of the many terrific baby shower ideas which make this such a fun event today.
