The amount of gifts you give for a baby for Christmas will be between 1 and 4 but will depend on two main factors. These are your relationship with the baby and budget you have to spend.
Budget
Everyone’s financial situation is different, so we recommend that you only spend what you can afford and your comfortable spending. The recipient would much rather a small token gift or card rather than put you under financial pressure.
Relationship
These are just a guide on how many presents you should give to a newborn depending on your relationship with the baby and parents.
- Distant Relative – If you are distant relative there is no need to buy a gift for the baby. Unless you are attending a Christmas function with the rest of the family.
- Niece – If you are buying a Christmas gift for your baby niece then you only need to buy one present. We have a selection of newborn girls Christmas gifts that are stylish and practical.
- Nephew – Similar to buying for a niece, if you are buying for a nephew you will only need to buy one gift. And to help you choose we have a range of newborn boys Christmas gifts to choose from.
- Cousin – When buying for your baby cousin you will only need to buy one first Christmas hamper.
- Sister in Law – If you are the sister in law you may want to spoil the baby over Christmas and buy two newborn Christmas gifts.
- Grandparents — This is the perfect time to spoil a newborn and a great opportunity to buy Christmas gifts for your newborn grandchildren. We recommend buying two gifts, one from each grandparent.
- Parents -This is the time to spoil your baby. We suggest gifting a total of four gifts, two from each of the parents.
