Preppy baby gift ideas include plaid and striped clothing.
Preppy baby gifts are classic, timeless and never go out of style. Clothing is made of 100% cotton, wool or cashmere. Preppy styles include floral and argyle patterns. Colors are bright and cheerful. According to dictionary.com, a preppy is "a person who favors or is viewed as favoring clothing style or behavior associated with traditional preparatory schools." Preppy baby gifts are name brands, traditionally purchased at upperclass stores.
Baby Supplies
Preppy babies need the customary items such as strollers, car seats, carriers, and diaper bags. The difference is the color and pattern of these items. Think striped, plaid or floral patterns. Diaper bags are often monogrammed with the baby's name or initials. A Baby Moses basket with a lacrosse or argyle print in pink, blue or green allows Mom to keep her preppy baby close to her. Get several monogrammed bag tags with the baby's initials, and tag the diaper bag, carrier and stroller for a stylish, quick and easy way to spot belongings. Other gift ideas include monogrammed sippy cups in blue or pink checks and monogrammed pacifier holders in paisley or stripes. A gift certificate to Mom's favorite store will more than likely be appreciated also.
Clothing
Preppy babies are dressed similarly to their moms and dads. Find onesies, sleepers, rompers and bibs in bright, cheerful colors such as pink, green, nautical red, light and navy blue. Clothing can be monogrammed with baby's initials or name. Clothing may include upscale appliques of alligators, ducks, whales, giraffes, butterflies, trains or cars. Clothing accessories such as booties and socks with an argyle print or nova checks, knit caps, watermelon stripe burp cloths, or headbands with large brightly colored bows are also good choices for the preppy baby. Other ideas include knit sweaters, cardigans and pants for babies and infants. Little girls can be dressed in rickrack-decorated dresses and argyle baby leg warmers. Baby boys can wear polo shirts, houndstooth booties and shirts with a tie applique.
Nursery Decor
Items for the nursery include hand-carved or hand-painted furniture. The bedding and curtains are name brand and may include a monogram of the baby's name. Patterns are often plaid, stripes, polka dots, or gingham in pink, light blue or green. Bedding includes soft knit or chenille blankets and quilted patterns. Another idea is to give Mom a gift certificate for an artist to draw a one-of-a-kind mural on the nursery wall or a gift certificate for an oil painting of the family.
