A first Christmas only happens once, and it passes in a blur of wrapping paper and sleepy cuddles. A keepsake with the name, the year and a few words helps you remember it. Here are our ideas for parents, grandparents and godparents.

The short versionA tree decoration, a memory journal or a photo print are the keepsakes parents tend to treasure most. Choose a clear photo, check the spelling of the name and order early.

A personalised tree decoration

A named decoration goes back on the tree every year, so it grows more precious with time. Look through our Christmas decorations for baby and family designs, or see all new baby gifts.

A memory journal for the first year

It is easy to forget the little things: the first laugh, the funny sleep habits, what they said at the table. The Cute Things Said & Did Journal is a place to jot them down, and makes a lovely gift for a new parent or grandparent.

Anna’s tipPhoto gifts look best with a bright, sharp picture taken in daylight. Avoid heavy filters and pick one where baby’s face is clear.
