Gifts for the newest addition
The one at the top of the wish list:
Playmats don’t get more interactive than our Playmat & Gym (Lights & Sound Rainbow) €113. With its hanging toys and exciting features including lights and music, you can entertain and engage all of their senses as they discover their fun new playmat. Plus, the rainbow design is both attractive and adorable.
The one that reminds everyone it’s their first Christmas:
There are few things as magical as their first Christmas, so it’s only natural to want to shout about it. Let the world know with this super-cute My First Christmas All in One & Hat €28, and watch as the aah’s (and the Instagram likes) follow…
The personalised one:
Make their gift extra special by personalising it with their name. At Mamas & Papas we’re offering personalisation on many of our gifts, but we think they’ll love this Santa Christmas Sack, €33 (plus €12 for personalisation) – especially once it’s filled with even more presents and sat under the tree ready for Christmas morning. Super-soft, with a deluxe white faux fur trim, this is a gift that will last for years, that you’ll be able to re-fill Christmas after Christmas.
The unique one:
Our Floral Rocking Horse €131 is a true playtime classic, but with a twist. A timeless toy that provides hours of joy for toddlers and young children, a traditional rocking horse can be enjoyed for years and passed down generations. And this particular version features a seriously unique pastel floral print and soft faux fur mane and tail, so it looks striking no matter where it’s placed in the home.
The cute one:
Our Faux fur dressing gown, €32, is cosy, super-soft and snuggly, and has adorable animal ears on the hood, for serious extra cute-factor. Add their name (£8.95) for an extra-special touch.
The one that they’ll keep forever:
This beautiful hand-painted penguin and snowman Christmas Bauble, €16 comes in three colours (red, pink and blue) and will always provide a sentimental reminder of their first Christmas. Plus, it wins points for longevity – this is a gift they can keep forever (in its gorgeous matching box) and you can pull out year after year to embellish the Christmas tree.
Don’t forget to buy for….
The parent-to-be:
Ocarro X Moon Tote Changing Bag, €140. As a parent-to-be they won’t yet know how useful this bag will become, but it will soon be something they won’t make it out of the house without! It’s full of handy storage, useful features (including insulated bottle holders for holding milk and baby food at just the right temperature) and a co-ordinating changing mat for on-the-go nappy changes. Plus, with its super-stylish shape (tote), on-trend new shade (Dales Green) and unique new fabric (a collaboration with Yorkshire woollen brand Moon) it ticks all the boxes for parents that don’t want to forego their style when they become a parent.
The brand-new mama or papa:
By now they’ll have realised what they’re missing for their little one, so treat them to a Mamas & Papas gift card and let them splurge on bits for their latest arrival. Our online M&P gift card can be emailed directly to their inbox too, handy if you won’t get to see them in person over the holidays.
The not-quite-new parent:
Our 3-in-1 Bug, €98 will provide some much-needed hands-free time to a parent of a baby that’s just out of the newborn stage. Described as ‘one of those baby gear items that you wonder how parents ever did without’ it is a real godsend for parents with little ones beyond 3 months. Offering a place to sit safely and be entertained, as well as being a booster seat that’s perfect for weaning and travelling with, this is a gift that will keep on giving, evolving as their little one grows to provide endless useful uses. Plus, it’s available in 4 on-trend colours so you can choose the one that will look great in their home.
The new sibling:
Matching family PJ’s on Christmas Eve is a great family tradition and now there’s more than one little one in your family, you can make it your own. Our traditional woven check PJ’s, €24 are the ultimate in night-before-Christmas sleepwear, with their tartan pattern and seasonal colours, plus they’re unisex and available from 6 month up to 3 years, so you can kit out all your little ones. Personalise with their names for an extra special touch (£8.95). Our Penguin Christmas Pyjamas, €20 are a super-cute festive alternative.
The little one who’s hard to please:
Want to bring a smile to the fussiest of little ones? We guarantee they’ll love our signature Bella Fairy soft toy, €21 who’s been given a seasonally sparkly makeover for Christmas 2022. Beautifully soft and dressed in a magical layered tutu and shimmery wings, say hello to their new take-it-everywhere companion. And if you want to make this gift even more special, add our Gold Spot Wrap Dress, €45, and watch how excited they get dressing in a similarly sparkling style to their new favourite toy.
