Unique First Birthday Gifts

When that first birthday arrives, many parents are taken aback by the fact that their child has grown so much over the last year. The unique first birthday gifts they choose do not have to be toys, games or fun filled selections as the rest of the family will take care of those types of gifts. Instead, give baby a unique first birthday gift that will last a lifetime and remind an older child of their time as a baby. These same unique first birthday gifts can also be given to friends or family members who have a child turning one. No matter who is having a first birthday, a unique first birthday gift is one that will wow baby for years to come.

With a computer, printer and a photo album - the unique first birthday gifts will flow with ease. Over the last year, plenty of things have changed and while baby may not appreciate those things right now, when they are 21, they will look back in awe at the album you have created. This unique first birthday gift begins with a search of notable news that has occurred over the last year. These new stories can be printed on newsprint computer paper and fastened inside the album. With each news story, make sure to include a picture of baby taken about the same time as the story happened to complete the unique first birthday gift.

Other ideas for unique first birthday gifts can include creating pillow covers from the baby's old infant clothing and miniature puppets from the old socks. Each of these gifts can be placed inside a gift box for baby to enjoy or mom and dad to keep safe until baby gets old enough to take care of these unique first birthday gifts. Dressing up a new teddy bear in a set of baby's clothes brings personality to a common stuffed gift. The unique first birthday gifts friends, family or mom and dad choose will be perfect every time as long as baby smiles and everyone is happy.
