Handmade Baby Diaper

Q for military women-either in or previously in Mid-East?

Hey Ladies-

I am getting a box ready for our local support our troops to send out to our troops in Iraq. I have the usual-gum, baby wipes, hard candies, sunscreen, chapstick, calling cards, etc. But I am wondering........I make handmade soaps and some bath & body products. Would those be useful (like girly treats?) over there--or not? I have little 2 oz body sprays, some lotions and bath salts etc. Obviously body butter is out but would this stuff get used there--or should I stick to basics? Also--anything else you found useful over there? I also **heard** that disposable baby diapers are used for a instant desert shower (fill with water and squeeze over your head) hmmm, ever hear of that? Suggestions welcome!

Nail polish, chapstick, sunscreen, DEET bug replellent, Jolly Rancher Hard Candies, Lifesavers Candies, High Calorie non perishable food items, cross-word puzzel books, pencils, pens, clean white socks, and letters of thanks

Baby Shower Gift Ideas : Handmade Blankets as a Baby Shower Gift Idea

The Significance Of Baby Gifts

There are many occasions to give a baby gift. The new arrival of a baby, a baby’s christening, baby birthdays and celebrating special milestones that a baby achieves are just a few of these occasions. Baby gift giving usually starts with a baby shower before the baby even arrives.

The first few baby gifts are usually those that are given to assist the baby's parents. A baby shower is a traditional event that is held some period of time before the baby's arrival. At a baby shower, many traditional gifts are given, such as; baby blankets, diaper bags, lotions and powders, sweaters, hats, all in ones, sleepers, socks, and baby booties. These baby gifts are much appreciated by the parents to be because they help the new parents get ready for their baby's arrival and prepare them for bringing their baby home.

Baby gifts can have a significant meaning to the family as they commemorate a special day in a baby's life and can become cherished family heirlooms. There are any keepsake baby gifts such as; a bracelet with the baby's birthstone, a beautiful music box that will delight the baby for years to come, or even a handmade blanket. This also applies for baby’s christening gifts. These types of baby gifts are cherished family mementos, kept for years by family and many times are passed down from grandmother to mother to daughter, grandfather to father to son or between siblings.

You can find baby gifts that are perfect for any occasion. Baby gifts can be educational or a soft and snugly toy that will comfort baby. It is also a good idea to occasionally give baby gifts that are purely practical, such as baby clothing or gifts that are beautiful and decorative, such as an embroidered baby blanket. Those gifts too can be heirlooms that are passed down from generation to generation.

You don’t need a reason or an occasion to give a baby gift.  Babies and parents appreciate baby gifts at any time.  Babies grow at a fast rate; therefore they outgrow clothing rather quickly. Babies are continually developing and exploring the world around them and educational baby gifts are always welcome no matter when they’re given.  Babies also have basic needs that must be met and practical gifts such as diapers and bibs are needed constantly.

Remember, it doesn’t matter if you're a new parent, a grandparent, aunt or uncle, a next-door neighbor or friend of the family, baby gifts are a great way to tangibly demonstrate your love and affection for the baby.
