Original and sustainable gift for a baby

Are you struggling to come up with an original and sustainable gift for a baby (0-1.5 years)? You're not alone. Don't want to buy yet another cuddle cloth or gift certificate? Then be sure to check out my ideas for original maternity gifts.

What is a sustainable gift?

First of all, what makes a gift sustainable? In my opinion, a gift is sustainable if it lasts. It doesn't break easily and can be reused for siblings. A product can also be sustainable if it's produced in an environmentally friendly way.

• A gift lasts a long time;

• Can be reused;

• Produced in an environmentally friendly manner.

What makes my toys sustainable?

I consider my toys sustainable because they grow with a child's interests and development. A child can use them for years, and then you can reuse them for other children. In everything I make, I carefully select my raw materials. For example, I choose eco-friendly fabrics, natural fillings, and safe paints. I also package everything plastic-free.

What is a nice and sustainable gift for a baby?

You won't find my toys in every toy store, which is why they make an original maternity gift.

1. Sensory bean bags
   These beanbags stimulate a baby's senses. Moreover, they're open-ended toys. There are no instructions or set patterns. Your child decides what they represent and what they're for. And that can change every day. One day, your child might be putting them in and out of their baskets all day long. Another day, they'll be beds for the animals.

2. Play side
   Play silk is another great example of an open-ended toy. It's super soft and has a beautiful sheen. Fascinating for babies (and parents). You can play endless peek-a-boo games with it, or tie it to a wooden ring or baby gym. For babies, I have a mini play silk with a wooden ring, but the 55x55cm play silk is also incredibly fun for babies and can be used even longer. So, extra durable!

3. Baby hand kite
   This adorable baby hand kite has a bunch of colorful ribbons. They're fun to wiggle, and they glide effortlessly through your fingers. And when you shake them, they move!

4. Baby gift set
   Want to give a beautiful gift with sustainable toys? Then my baby gift set is a great idea! This set includes a mini play silk on a wooden ring, two sensory bags, and a baby hand kite. A perfect foundation for sensory baby toys!
