Before letters to the North Pole and wish lists to Santa, there is baby’s first Christmas. It’s a holiday your little one likely won’t remember, but that you will—and on that special first Christmas, the joy of gifting will truly be all yours. Here, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite gifts for babies 2 and under.
1. Solly Baby Sleepers: Talk about dreamy. Our two-piece pajamas are buttery-soft, breathable, and available in a variety of colors and prints. And don’t let the name fool you—they make the perfect outfit for anything the day calls for, be it sleeping, playing, or snuggling up close to you.
2. Solly Baby Crib Sheets: Sweet dreams are made of these. Our cribs sheets are made with the same signature-soft fabric as the Solly Wrap and come in prints and colors to match any nursery.
3. Lalo Play Gym: We love any gear that grows along with baby and this set checks all the boxes. When you're past the Play Gym stage, the kit converts into a tent that toddlers and big kids will love.
4. House of Noa Play Mat: A playmat that’s beautiful enough for the living room? Yes, please. Baby will love rolling around on these soft, easy-to-clean foam play mats, and the timeless designs look lovely in any space.
5. Mushie Bear Teether: Not everything baby puts in their mouth is cute and clean, but this is! Made from 100% non-toxic, food-grade silicone, this teether is ideal for little munchers with tiny fingers.
6. Block Walker Cart: For little ones learning to stand and walk, this walker cart is made from sustainably-sourced wood and comes with multi-color blocks to weigh it down as baby pushes and to stack and build when they’re ready to take a break from moving.
7. Black and White Contrast Book: Beautiful stimulation for growing minds, this book is filled with high-contrast animal paintings designed by fine artist Tabitha Paige. The accordion-style format is perfect for tummy time!
8. Retrospec Balance Bike: Designed for the ones who want to go-go-go, this pedal-free bike promotes balance and stability by allowing littles to use their feet to zoom around.
9. Gathre Mini Climber: Got a mini mountaineer in the making? This cushioned block set is the right size for little climbers to engage in fun and safe play while exploring new skills. Plus, like all things from our friends at Gathre, it’s beautiful (like, living room-worthy) and easy to clean.
10. Slumberkins: An adorable plush creature that comes with a corresponding book that teaches little ones valuable life skills? Yes, yes, yes.
11. Mushie Bath Play Sets: Level up baby’s bath time with these themed bath toy sets. Made from 100% food grade silicone, they’re safe for baby to chew on, naturally mold-resistant, and easy to clean (just throw them in the dishwasher!).
12. PlanToys Drum: That little one who can’t seem to stop pounding, tapping, and banging on things? Sounds like a budding musician! Channel that rockstar energy into soothing beats (okay, maybe not soothing, but definitely more gentle than a metal spoon and bowl) with this beautiful wood drum.
