The bright colors of the traditional Hawaiian lei offer an excellent addition to a Hawaiian theme baby room.
Babies are often showered with gifts starting with baby showers and continuing through infancy and the early years. Creative and thoughtful baby gifts are often well received, as are practical presents. Hawaiian themed gifts for babies range from sentimental to historical and can be as practical as clothes or as creative as a diaper cake.
Clothes
Babies constantly are growing and need a lot of different clothes in various sizes. Purchase khaki shorts and pants for little boys and girls. Pair with a Hawaiian theme shirt for an island oasis baby outfit. Dresses with large flowers and bright colors also are suitable for baby girls and display a Hawaiian theme. Add a hibiscus to a hair band for a nice accent.
Diaper Cake
Assemble a diaper cake. This popular baby gift is simple to make and definitely visually appealing. All you need is a pack of diapers, some colorful ribbon and optional accessories. Roll the diapers and assemble into tiers. Tie the tiers with ribbon. Add a Hawaiian touch with hibiscus flower accents and bright colored ribbons or a lei.
Bedroom Accessories
Purchase bedroom accessories to help complete a Hawaiian theme baby room. Leis are a traditional decorative Hawaiian icon made of fresh flowers. Leis also express love, congratulations as well as welcome. You may also purchase Hawaiian themed bedding for the baby's crib. A mural of the ocean off the Hawaiian coast or the island itself is also a unique gift that will compliment a baby's bedroom.
Peridot
Peridot is a glistening green gem usually found in volcanic rocks. The peridot contains special meaning for Hawaiians. The gem often represents peace and calm within the Hawaiian culture. It is the August birthstone and would make a great baby gift for a child born in that month. Regardless of birth month, the beauty of the gem makes a great gift for a new mother to represent the peace of the relationship with her child.
