Best Gifts for a New Big Sibling
Celebrate a new big brother or sister-to-be with a thoughtful big sibling gift.
Getting promoted to big sibling is kind of a big deal. It also comes with a lot of feelings since sharing your favorite people with a new (very needy and very tiny) person can be hard to do.
As you nest for baby, you’ll want to prepare your toddler for the big change ahead. Get them involved in setting up the nursery, have plenty of conversations to get them familiar and read books about siblings and babies. Giving them their own baby doll is also a great idea, so they can join in on caretaking activities alongside you. And gifting your toddler something “from” the baby is a sweet gesture that can help make them feel special too (in the midst of all the excitement surrounding the newest addition).
Whether you’re shopping for your own toddler or someone else you know and love, we gathered a list of our favorite gifts for new big siblings to spark inspiration.
