Collection: Original and useful birth gift

The birth gift that's like no other

Are you looking for a birth gift that stands out from the crowd? Instead of the umpteenth bodysuit or the stuffed animal that will just join the pile, give something handmade. At JOY!, we have gathered original and useful birth gift ideas, designed to delight both baby and parents, with soft materials and creations that last well beyond the first few months.

DIY birth gifts

It's our specialty and it's what makes these gifts so precious. Bunny lovie to sew, crochet pacifier clip, bath cape, birth bonnet and booties, sensory cube, washable wipes: each kit contains the fabric or yarn, the materials, and step-by-step instructions. There is no need to be a sewing pro to get started, and the result is a unique gift, sewn or crocheted with your own hands.

Crochet stuffed animals and rattles

Discover a whole family of animals to make with our crochet and amigurumi kits: koala, duck, rabbit, mouse, unicorn, flamingo, or little doll. These crocheted lovies often become baby's favorite companion, and they make a very remarkable birth gift, including for a baby shower or a baptism.

Early learning and first games

To accompany the first few months, supplement with our Montessori games and our early learning and first toys for babies: materials to explore, shapes to stack, activity books, and first sensory activities adapted for little hands.

A gift for the parents too

A birth is also the arrival of a mom and a dad. Our matching mommy, daddy, and baby sock sets are always a hit, and they look wonderful in photos to announce the happy event.

Frequently Asked Questions

What to give for a birth that is original and useful?
Prioritize what is truly useful and can be kept: a handmade lovie, a bath cape, washable wipes, or a sensory cube. A gift made by you has a sentimental value that nothing bought can equal.

How much to spend on a birth gift?
It all depends on your closeness to the parents. Count on about twenty euros for a small token, more for a more significant gift like a complete set or a handmade lovie.

Which gift to choose if you don't know the baby's gender?
Opt for neutral shades and universal themes like animals, the moon, or stars. Our kits are available in many gender-neutral colors.

Are these kits suitable for beginners?
Yes. The crochet, knitting, and sewing kits are provided with detailed instructions and the necessary materials, and many are specifically designed for a first try.
