The month of June is really exciting for us, not only does it mark Elliott's first birthday, it also has Fathers Day included! Which means lots of gift giving! So I have decided that throughout June will be the month that we give you something, which means you can expect lots of giveaways and goodies to be won!
Today I have teamed up with Burble Baby to offer one of my readers a £30 gift voucher to spend as you wish on BurbleBaby.co.uk!
Burble Baby have lots to offer from clothing to skincare even to beautiful hampers! Karen at Burble Baby has wrote up Four Fantabulous
Tips for Finding Fantastic Gifts for New Mum & Baby which will help you pick out the perfect gift for that someone special!
If the
thought of having to buy a gift for an impending new arrival or new baby grips
your heart with fear, then relax, we’ve got is covered here at Burble Baby! Keep it simple, answer these
questions, consider the options and follow these tips! You’ll soon have the
perfect gift for new mum and baby in no time!
1. Do you know mum to be well?
Yes: if you know mum to be well, chances are you will have been getting regular updates of all the baby equipment and essentials that have been acquired for new baby, and so you will know what to avoid buying. However, this could also make gift buying more difficult – they have everything already! Aargh! Of course, you could always ask them what they want, but where’s the fun in that! Consider mum’s personality and own tastes – what does she like, what does she wear, what colours is she fond of? It’s no good buying pink for baby if you know that mum is just not keen! There are lots of quirky baby gifts out there that match parent’s personalities, so get creative!

Burble Baby Loves: know a cake lover?! Then these gorgeous baby bodysuits presented like cupcakes are an ideal gift! Available in spotty pink, yellow or blue. Yummy!
No: Ok, so you might not know that mum-
to- be hates pink, despises pampering or has an aversion to teddy bears, but
you can still buy a lovely gift! Essential fail safe items like muslin squares,
babygrows and vests are always a good option – baby will get through loads and
you can never have too many! If you want to play it safe, opt for neutral
colours, and timeless classics. Choosing bigger sizes that baby can grow into
is also a good strategy; mums always end up with a surplus of 0-3 months
clothes that hardly get worn! Burble Baby Loves: Everyone loves an angel babe, we love this gorgeous winged babygrow! Perfect for boys and girls alike, and just that little bit different! Perfect gift!
2. Do you know if the baby will be pink
or blue?
Yes: We’re not suggesting that you should automatically reach for the traditional pink or blue options, but you might, however, want to buy a gift suitable for the sex of the child if you know it. Classic themes always work well; buses and tractors for boys, princesses and fairies for girls. Or, why not opt for something a bit more unusual… Burble Baby Loves: Inspired by vintage illustrations and fairy tale classics, this 3 Little Pigs babygrow,hat, bib and blanket make the perfect gift for both baby girls and boys.

No: Well that’s
ok, pink or blue may just not do anyway!
Why not choose a gift that will be practical and useful regardless of
the baby’s gender. Sure as eggs are eggs, baby needs a nappy change; a wash; to
eat and, at some stage; to sleep! Buy a gift around these themes, and you are
on to a winner!
3. Is this mum’s first baby?
Yes: As already mentioned, she will probably have all the essential items, and more, under the sun! Avoid duplication and go for a gift that will help her hold on to and cherish those special memories of baby forever. Keepsakes, photo albums, record books and frames, you really can’t go wrong! Burble Baby Loves: Baby Milestone Cards are the new craze sweeping the nation. A truly unique gift for baby showers,mum to be and new arrivals, these 30 photo cards help capture the miracle of baby’s first year in weeks, months and memorable moments.Simply add a card to baby's photo to record monumental milestones and ensure they are never forgotten such as baby's firsts mile, first word and first tooth.

No: Aah, well, then chances are she has
all the essentials and a stock pile of clothes from her previous babies.
Probably not worth risking another pair of socks or babygrow! Why not treat mum
to a gift for herself, a bit of pampering perhaps, or something beautiful? Burble Baby Loves: Mums will be pleased as punch with this thoughtful and beautiful fine silver Peas in a PodNecklace.

Yes: If you are working to a smaller budget, don’t worry, there are lots of beautiful gifts that are sure to dazzle and delight! Gifts don’t have to be extravagant to be thoughtful and beautiful! Burble Baby Loves: Quack,quack! This unique and ultra-cool rubber duck by BamBam is sure to be a bathtime favourite, and all for £5!
