Four fantastic shower gifts for mommies-to-be:
1. Bouncer seats provide a safe, comfy place for baby to play or relax. Today’s models come with a variety of helpful features, such as soothing vibrations, calming music, bat-at toys, and soft lighting. Some even have built-in rollers that give your grandchild a gentle massage. Bouncers also give moms some much-needed hands-free time.
2. Cradle swings surround baby with soft fabric and soothe her with two swinging motions—back-and-forth and side-to-side. Look for models featuring an overhead moving mobile with lights and calming music.
3. Nursery monitors keep Mom and baby connected even when they’re in separate rooms. A monitor lets Mom see, hear, and even feel vibrations when sound is coming from baby’s room. Some models project a soothing image onto the ceiling for baby’s benefit.
4. Mobiles not only have a calming effect, but they also help babies focus and improve their vision. Many also feature night-lights and soothing lullabies to help send your grandbaby off to dreamland.
