If your baby is six months or older, choosing presents becomes easier since they can interact with toys more. But if you're searching for newborn first Christmas gift ideas, it can be a bit more challenging to find practical yet fun options. Luckily, we’ve put together this guide of gift ideas for baby's first Christmas to suit both newborns and toddlers.

1. Silicone Teether

Silicone teething toys will make an ideal gift for your child's first Christmas. Teething can start anywhere from two to three months old and is often an uncomfortable time for your little one. Not only do teething toys relieve pain and allow a safe surface to chew on, but they're also a great way to keep your baby busy and entertained. Our Geo Zoo Silicone Teether offers fun and colorful animal shapes that will appeal to your baby's senses. Easily fill up your baby's first stocking with our On-the-Go Teething Times Bundle, filled with five unique teethers made to sooth and engage your little one.

2. NanaNubs Banana Massaging Toothbrush

Looking for a Christmas gift that promotes good hygiene? The NanaNubs Banana Massaging Toothbrush is perfect for babies 3+ months old. Its soft bristles gently clean gums and soothe teething pain as you brush your little one’s newly emerging teeth.
