Shower Them with Baby Gifts

Nui Organics

Shoppers are always on the lookout for special gifts for new parents or shower presents that are not ho-hum. Some items are so filled with fun they scream “buy me!” while others attract because they are ecologically in tune. The more variety you offer, the greater your rewards as customers like having a selection of items at different price points. Great shower and baby gifts help build your business as others ask the happy recipients, “Where did you get that?” Gifts from Nui Organics, Wry Baby, Wupzey and Nova Nature are all well designed, with the right combinations of whimsy, practicality and sensible pricing.

Nui Organics Offers the Quality of Merino Wool

Nui Organics
What could be more adorable than a very young baby wearing a full-body sleeper? The littlest ones are warm and toasty in an infant sleepgown by Nui Organics that features shell buttons at the neck to ease off over babies head, and a drawstring at the hem for no-hassle diaper changing. Nui Organics’ Merino wool is super soft and great on new skin. Merino is never itchy, helps insulate baby from drafts and is available in sizes newborn to twelve months. Available in Silver, Blush, Sky, Ruby, Charcoal, Taupe, Olive and Silver Stripe.

When late summer or early fall nights turn chilly, babies are cozy in the Nui Z-bag. The Z-bag has a full-length zipper that can be opened from top or bottom to put the baby in the bag or easily deal with a diaper change. A double layer of premium organic Merino helps regulate the temperature so little ones do not overheat. The Z-bag fits babies from about three to eighteen months.

In addition to being soft and providing warmth without bulk, Merino has natural elasticity so it will stay in shape through endless washings. It has millions of tiny air pockets that make it an especially great insulating fabric. It keeps kids cool when the weather is warm and warm when it’s cold outside. It also keeps children dry as it can absorb up to 30% of its weight in water without feeling clammy or wet to touch, and releases this moisture into the atmosphere to keep the wearer feeling warm and dry. The result: the layer between the Nui Merino and a baby’s skin remains dry and rash free.

Shoppers will also appreciate that Nui Merino is fire retardant and therefore a super-safe choice. Merino does not give off that nasty wet wool smell because its properties make it naturally anti-bacterial — no bacteria, no odor! Thanks to having a naturally water-repellant surface, baby clothes from Nui Organics need far less washing than cotton and synthetics and a simple airing out is often enough to refresh them.

Soft, naturally fire-retardant and fit for princess or prince: www.nuiorganics.com

Raise Funny People with Wry Baby Gifts

Wry Baby
The Mysterious Mystic, a best- seller from Wry Baby that urges everyone to “raise funny people”, fits 0 to 6 months and is an attention-grabbing baby shower present with twelve possible futures printed on a cotton lap-shoulder tee shirt, sealed in a muslin bag. Prediction: It will generate lots of “oohs” and “wows” when opened!

Another cute Wry Baby gift idea: neoprene pacifier cases that can hold up to two pacifiers with a specially designed Gromm-O-Vent, so what is inside can dry out. A sturdy swivel hook holds the case wherever it is hung so it’s handy when needed.

2013 is all about more fun from WryBaby. The core product has been, and continues to be, snapsuits in bright colors with funny graphics such as “Crying Gets You Things”, “I Might Barf” and “I Have Way More Facebook Friends Than You”, all in broadcast-bright colors.

This year started with the introduction of the “Established 2013” snapsuit. Super hero themed snapsuits with little capes sewn into the shoulder seams include proclamations of “Super Bad”, “Super Cute” and “Super Super”. Also new are Proud Parent Diaper Bag Flare pins, packaged ten to a tin, that proclaim “Sleep is for the Weak” and “Champion Diaper Changer”.

Wry Baby has been pleasing retailers (because their products are perennial top sellers) since 2004. There’s always shelf space for more fun at www.wrybaby.com

Wupzey Wipes Out Messes

Wupzey
Keep mess to a minimum with fun and unique items from Wupzey. The high chair Crumb Catcher is a bag that attaches to the underside of a high chair tray, so it captures flying food, pacifiers, utensils and anything else baby decides give the heave ho! Crumb Catchers are strong enough to even catch toys, and are machine washable.

Depart from cloth bibs that can take so long to dry, and welcome lightweight quick-dry bibs sized for tots of different ages. Beginner fits three to twelve months; large is the size for three to eighteen months and extra large fits up to a whopping twenty-four months. Waterproof and cleanable with a wipe, these lightweight bibs come in solid pink and blue as well as pink, blue and orange dots, stripes and a giraffe motif.

Update a high chair with a Wupzey cover that is waterproof, stain and odor resistant and comes in the same prints and solids as the bibs, as well as a reversible Kit Kat print.

Anyone looking for a great baby present will welcome the extra large floor cover that protects under the high chair and doubles as a mess minder when kids are doing art work or the family has a picnic. The cover folds up small so it is easy to transport; can be wiped clean, and when needed, popped into the washing machine.

Nova Nature: Beyond Rubber Duckies

Nova Nature
Clever toys for babies come from Nova Nature, where they are handmade from natural rubber and hand-painted with non-toxic paints. These toys are water-resistant and are completely PVC, BPA and Phthalate free so babies can chew and mouth them with total safety.

A bright green frog sticks out his red tongue while the orange baby octopus grins with a purple mouth. There is a brilliantly blue baby dolphin, both a red and green crab and a super yellow seahorse. Pure fun is in every inch of the relaxing frog, hanging out on his back, hands tucked behind his head. A big-eyed fish and a goldfish round out the animal offerings. Of course, there is also a classic yellow rubber duckie! All these toys are easy for small fingers to grasp and when they do, the creature emits a soft, friendly squeak.

These ecologically and child-friendly toys are made of the sap from the common rubber tree that is harvested sustainably without the use of herbicides. One day, when the toy is no longer in use, it is readily biodegradable.

For a different kind of baby gift, stock teethers with a large space in the middle so little hands can hold it. Teethers are available in a hand, foot or apple design, also in bold colors that catch kids’ attention. The Plant Baby line of teethers and rattles are made of plant-based natural plastic that is biodegradable and compostable. Check out the drum, heart, trumpet and star rattles in charming pastels, composed from corn, rice, pine tree, coconut and soy so they are totally free of any petroleum. Little gums are soothed when chewing on the crown, spin or trident teether, each featuring rolling balls safely encased in the handle.

Nova Nature is a family-owned business based in Vancouver, BC, committed to offering toys that are safe as well as fun. For teethers and toys tap into www.novanature.ca
