Sprinkle gift ideas

My SIL has one DS who will be 2 in June and is having her second DS at the end of April. She never wanted a sprinkle since she doesn't need anything but her friends are throwing her a surprise one. She is taking my DS old crib, rock n play and a baby car that we have from our 3 kids that we don't need anymore. I know Im going to buy her a gift when the baby is born and my DH is the godfather so we will be giving the new baby extra gifts then. What do I give for the sprinkle? How much should I spend? I was going to get something personalized with the babies name but that is expensive and I usually do that when the baby is born. Any ideas? Thanks so much!

Re: Sprinkle gift ideas

I love the age blocks (I got from etsy - bitsy blocks was the vendor). She can use them to take monthly photos of the little one, and yearly photos and grade photos of the both of them in the next few years.

Other things she may need for a second are: towel, washcloths, bibs, burp cloths.

For my SIL's sprinkle we bought her a case of size 1 diapers, a case of wipes, some onesies, a love blanket for the baby and I crocheted a baby blanket. She already had so much from her last 2 kids and didn't really need anything. Most people got her stuff that she would have to constantly buy or gave her gift cards.

Diapers, wipes, some new clothes, and I would get something sentimental. FOr my sprinkle I got a frame that said Me and my big Sister for my sons room. I loved it! I would spend $50-$100.

Re: Sprinkle gift ideas

Love personalized gifts and I'm also a big fan of practical stuff (diapers, wipes, wash cloths, burp cloths). You could also chip in with others for a newborn photo session or do a gc to a local place that delivers for a meal once they're home. Maybe even a gc for a laundry service so that they can send their own stuff out and only worry about doing the babies' laundry.

A friend of mine is having her shower soon and we always chip in for a larger gift but I like to do something small as a separate gift from me and my family. RH Baby and Child (Restoration Hardware) had adorable faux fur hats and slippers on crazy sale. It's was very inexpensive but super cute and something a bit different/special. Just a suggestion.
