It’s already November, which means the holidays are upon us, and it seems gift shopping is on everyone’s mind. If you’re like the majority of people who don’t have everything planned and bought in advance, you’re probably searching for gift ideas right now. Like us here at Modern Kids Design, you probably also want to give useful, earth-friendly gifts that the recipients will use and love. With that in mind, we’ve collected some of our favorite gift ideas into a handy holiday gift guide for the whole family! In this post, Part 1, we’ll cover gifts for the littlest members of your family—new babies and toddlers. In Part 2, we’ll have something for you!

Holiday Gift Guide For the Baby

Niche Feeding Pillow by Nook – This pillow represents some of the best things about the Nook line of products and bedding. Like all of Nook’s products, the Niche Feeding Pillow is made in North America and supports local economies. With a focus on breathability, safety/health, and comfort, this pillow is ideal for supporting your young baby during feeding, cuddling, and playing. Its versatile shape means you can keep using it even once baby has grown up, and it makes an attractive, modern home accessory.

Baby’s First Year Cards by Milestone – Any new parent or parent-to-be would love to receive these commemorative cards/photo props to document their baby’s growth and development. Milestone is dedicated to helping parents capture, enjoy, and remember all the important moments with their child. Capturing family moments with these beautiful, durable artistic cards is a special experience. They allow you to build the modern equivalent of a “baby book” and share it with all the important people in your life, one milestone at a time.

Green Drop Humidifier by Crane – If you aren’t already using a humidifier in your nursery, consider this the perfect gift to get you started. In addition to being beautifully designed, this humidifier is whisper-quiet and has an auto-off function for when water runs out. Crane builds high-quality products that work effectively, are easy to maintain, and are energy efficient. The base is also antimicrobial to prevent mold and bacterial growth, keeping this humidifier safe and healthy for your baby. Want to know more about the benefits of using a humidifier year-round?

Two-Sided Toddler Pillow by Nook – The high-quality bedding and homeware products from Nook are also available through the Modern Kids Design store!
