Baby handprint kit – great gift to give to new moms
A baby handprint kit is a great gift to give to new moms. As soon as a baby is born, it is customary to take handprints and footprints from the baby. These mementos are often provided by the hospital and include the baby’s weight, height, and name. Though many parents enjoy memorializing these prints by framing them, a kit is an additional way to preserve baby’s handprints forever. The materials used to make the handprint are easy to wash off and pose no health risk to the baby.
Some parents opt for placing a little bit of ink on either the palms of the hands or the soles of the feet. However, this can be messy and only produces a one-dimensional image. Though these might be great for cards or scrapbooking, a kit creates a three-dimensional keepsake that can be preserved for many years. Though ink prints are nice, a handprint kit makes an excellent gift that is capable of displaying baby’s handprints in a way not seen with ink prints. In addition to baby handprint kits, there are also baby footprint kits available as well. Both baby handprint and baby footprint kits make excellent gifts and are make the perfect gift.
You can give one of these kits to new and expectant mothers at baby showers and upon the birth of the baby. Many people don’t think of giving them throughout the baby’s first year, but if the mother doesn’t have one of these kits, it is very appropriate to give these gifts throughout the year.
Not only is it a great gift idea for mom to be, but mothers and fathers might also find that these kits are the perfect gift for grandparents, uncles, aunts, godparents, and close friends. Long distance family members will greatly appreciate such a personalized and heart felt gift.
