22 Fun Gifts for Babies (and Toddlers!)

Babies are so cute, and so gross. One minute they’re sleeping peacefully, next they’ve managed to spit up all over the bed and themselves. Get your favorite baby an extra couple sets of sheets for those nights when accidents happen, because nothing’s worse than running out of sheets at 2 am after another spit-up or leaky diaper incident. I like this set from Newton Baby ($40) since it’s soft, organic, and comes with two crib sheets, plus there are lots of color combos to choose from for Baby’s nursery.

Another good backup is extra swaddles or sleep sacks, depending on how old Baby is. (Swaddles are for newborns who can’t roll, while sleep sacks are for all other baby stages!) I really like Kyte’s gorgeous sleep sacks—they’re nice and long, so my son didn’t grow out of them as fast as he did Halo sleep sacks. I’d recommend a 1.0 TOG weight for most times of the year, but 0.5 is great for summer, and 2.5 is good for winter. —Nena Farrell
