Tips for Planning a Baby Shower
Planning a Baby Shower? Here’s What to Keep in Mind 🎈🍼 Your little bundle is on the way, and you’re starting to think about planning a baby shower... how exciting! Whether you're organising it yourself or handing the reins to a trusted friend or family member, here are a few practical tips from the team at Dimples to help you get started (and enjoy the process too!). Set the date 🗓️ First things first - let’s lock in a date. Somewhere around the 7-month mark is a great time to host your shower. It gives you a nice buffer before baby arrives, and time afterward to sort through gifts and plan what else you might need. When it comes to timing, think about the style of event you’re going for. Is it a brunch with bubbles? A mid-afternoon tea? Three hours is a good ballpark to aim for — just enough time to relax and celebrate without anyone feeling rushed. Sort the guest list ✉️ There are no rules here — it’s entirely up to you who you’d like to share the day with. It could be a small group of close friends, a wider celebration with extended whānau, or even something co-ed with kids in tow. 💡 Tip: Give guests around five weeks’ notice to RSVP. That way, there’s plenty of time for people to plan (and pick a thoughtful gift!). A fun trend that’s growing in popularity is the Baby-Q — a relaxed afternoon BBQ where friends and family bring a plate and celebrate outdoors with the parents-to-be. Easy, casual, and no balloon arches required. Choose a theme (or don’t!) 🎉 You don’t need to go all out — unless you want to. Soft colours, simple tableware, a few bunches of flowers, and a cake can be all you need to make it feel special. That said, if you’ve been dreaming of a balloon garland or photo wall, go for it! Just keep in mind you’ll be the one packing it down at the end… or enlisting a very helpful friend 😉 Plan your catering 🍰☕️ Food is always a highlight, so think about what your guests might be expecting based on the time of day. A mid-morning gathering could be light and lovely with fresh fruit, muffins, and a hot cuppa. A midday shower might lean more toward grazing boards and savoury bites. If your guest list is small, you might feel happy preparing the food yourself. For a bigger crowd, consider asking a few friends to bring a plate — or treat yourself and hire a caterer so you can relax and enjoy the moment. Gift planning made simple 🎁 One of the loveliest parts of a baby shower is the chance for your people to help you prepare, with practical, beautiful gifts you’ll genuinely use. We recommend making a list of the essentials you’re still needing, and thinking about how you’d like to share that with your guests. Some people prefer a wishlist, while others like to keep it open-ended. 📝 Check out our Dimples Gift Registry — it’s an easy way to select what you need and share it with guests, no awkward asking required. You can also use our baby essentials checklist to make sure you haven’t missed anything. Most importantly… enjoy it! 💛 This is a celebration of you, your baby, and this incredibly special moment in your life. Whether it’s big or small, fancy or casual — surround yourself with people who lift you up, wear something that makes you feel good, and enjoy a slice of cake (or two). You deserve to be celebrated.

The baby gifting gauntlet – how to get it right. Bright pops of primary coloured toys, sleek Scandi-style nursery decor, temptingly tiny booties and seriously drool-worthy bibs. It’s easy to get carried away by the abundance of cute when shopping for a new baby, but what do new parents really need? Choosing the perfect baby shower gift to help make the lives of soon-to-be exhausted parents easier and brighter doesn't need to be complicated. Sticking to some tried-and-true, useful items will have them praising you for your clever gift – day and night. Dress for success That adorable tutu with matching headband and ballet-style booties may seem irresistibly cute, but the reality of dressing and undressing a small baby (several times a day) is likely to have overly fussy outfits quickly relegated to the impractical pile. Top points are given for something that delivers on the baby clothing trifecta – cute factor, easy to put on or take off, and easy to wash. Items like our organic cotton romper will tick all three boxes with minimal effort. While it’s easy to be drawn to the itsy-bitsy doll-sized newborn clothing, new parents will appreciate having a stash of larger clothing their baby can grow into (and some babies may skip newborn sizing all together!) Consider shopping for clothing in the 6 or 12-month range, but beware of seasonal variations. Add a gift of your time – it’s truly mind-blowing how much washing a tiny person can create – help a new parent by offering to put on a load of washing, or simply help fold that endless pile. You are feeling sleepy While gifting the (often elusive and always cherished) necessity of sleep to a new parent isn’t usually possible, products that can help on this front are always appreciated. Most parents will find themselves working their way through a bevy of sleep-related products (swaddles, sleeping bags and sleep aids) to find what suits them and their baby best, so complementary products like sleepwear, our beautiful merino bee blanket or the multipurpose muslin swadle make great gifts. Our merino or cotton gowns are a clever way to dress a baby at night, making night-time nappy changes easy. Anything that saves tired parents from trying to match up dozens of domes in a dimly lit room will have them thanking you for making life that little bit easier. And yes, boys can wear gowns too! Add a gift of your time – Offer to take the baby off their hands for an hour post-feed, so they can catch up on a little sleep. Splish splash, it’s time for a bath The delicate skin of a newborn means bath time in the early days is less about colourful bath toys and more about gentle muslin flannels paired with non-irritating skincare. New parents usually have something in mind for larger essentials like a baby bath, but accessories (think an essentials baby pack or a cosy hooded towel ) always go down a treat. Add a gift of your time – Instead of stopping by for tea and a chat, watch the baby for half an hour so they can take an uninterrupted, leisurely shower. The messy business of mealtime Starting a baby on solids isn’t typically on the radar of parents-to-be, and the associated products don’t often feature on new-baby essentials checklists. This makes baby-feeding accessories seriously useful gifts with some longevity. In the first year of a baby’s life, food seems to be more of a fashion item (to be worn) rather than a source of sustenance, meaning a decent stockpile of bibs is essential. Pretty bibs like the this are perfect for catching spills and staying crumb-free while out and about, whereas the more industrious silicone bib offers the practicality of being dishwasher-safe and stain-resistant. Add a gift of your time – bring over a hearty, home-cooked meal that can be easily frozen or reheated. Exhausted new parents will truly love you for it. The days are long, but the years are short It’s so easy for those precious early years to pass by in a blur of broken sleep and nappy changes, which is why a keepsake baby book makes a thoughtful and memorable gift for parents-to-be. Our beautiful monochrome Marlee + Jo Baby Book allows parents to record everything, from their first thoughts when the new babe arrives, right through to favourite memories of the not-so-new babe’s first day of school. Add a gift of your time – Take your camera along to the baby shower and snap away. Compile and print these special memories for entry in the gifted baby book. Still not sure? Dimples gift vouchers are available for purchase online and in-store, and allow new parents to hop online and pick up those forgotten items...all while still in their pyjamas.

Encouraging play time with your little one Playtime with your children is one of the most powerful ways to contribute to your child’s development. It is so important to have these playful interactions with your little one early on in the Newborn stage. To build a connection between you and your Newborn this form of interaction doesn’t require much more than using your face, voice and body to keep them entertained. You will begin to learn more about one another and start to see you baby’s personality come to light. You may feel in the beginning as if this form of play is a little one sided, however through these interactions you are helping with their cognitive and sensory development. They are beginning to build connections in their brains which will help them to understand different words. Beginning by making funny faces and smiling, singing, telling nursery rhymes, and reading to them are all the simplest and most effective ways to interact with baby. Introducing your baby to new materials that they can touch and move around is another great way to stimulate their brains. Allowing them to do things as simple splashing around water during bath time is a great way of helping them to explore their senses. During these early stages of development you are the most important tool for your baby’s entertainment however Dimples also sells a range of interactive toys in various forms to aide when it comes to play time between you and your little one. Toys to add when it is play time. The Jelly Cat books follow delightful little characters through a variety of different stories. Story time with your little one is a great way to interact and stimulate their mind. Changing the pitch and tone of your voice will help with baby making different connections in their brain. Play time can require a lot of energy for baby so you will notice they can quickly get tired. Baby will signal they are getting tired by looking away from you, they may become disinterested or even grumpy. After your baby is rested, they will signal when they are ready to play again by looking towards you, making noises as well was wiggling their arms and legs about. Evolving play time as your child grows As baby grows up, they are learning more every day. They are beginning to develop new skills therefore it is important to evolve your playtime routine. Between the ages of one and two your toddler will begin to explore the world and will begin to gain more of an idea on how things work. During this age it is great to have a balance between structured and unstructured play. Unstructured play is allowing your child to explore what strikes their own interest. It is through unstructured play where you will learn the most about your child and what they are attracted to. Here it is best to take a step back and watch your little one’s imagination grow. Structured play is a great way for you child to learn in a more organised setting, this may involve activities such as swim lessons, musical groups, dance classes. Structured play will help to broaden your toddler’s knowledge and physical skills, this often takes part within a group setting. Play within a social setting is important as it helps to develop social and communication skills as well as teach them about sharing. It is a good idea when buying toys to keep you little one entertained to consider buying toys that are educational, therefore you are ensuring that not only are they having fun but they are also expanding their knowledge. Dimples offers a range of educational yet entertaining toys to make sure you little one’s mind is always learning. The Stacking Ring Tower from Mushie is made from 100% non-toxic BPA and phthalate free plastics, they help to refine bubs organisational and motor skill all while being fun for them to play and engage with. Screen time is an important factor to be aware of. Putting your child in front of a screen is an easy solution when needing to keep your little one entertained so you can get certain tasks done. However, it important to consider balance when it comes to how much screen time you are allowing you child to have. Screens only show a two-dimensional world, it doesn’t offer the same sensory experience that you child will gain when they are out and about. Play time away from the screen allows your child to explore all five senses and use their imagination, you will notice their knowledge broadening quickly the more they venture into the world.

Finding the Right Toys for Your Baby’s Stage What might look like messy play or mindless rattling is actually serious business for your baby. From day one, they’re learning through movement, touch, sound, and – yes – smearing food on every available surface. Play is how your little one makes sense of the world, so choosing toys that match their stage of development can really help them thrive. Here’s a simple guide to what kinds of toys to look out for during each phase of your baby’s exciting journey. 0–6 Months: The First Explorer Your newborn may be tiny and still figuring out the basics, but their brain is already hard at work. Even in the early days, babies can recognise voices and slowly begin to track faces (though not quite in focus at first). At this stage, look for toys with high-contrast patterns and simple shapes – a mobile over the cot is ideal for visual stimulation and encouraging early motor skills as they start to reach out. A fun activity gym is amazing for development and early hand eye coordination as well. Suckling is another important reflex to support, so having safe teething toys can help build strength in their mouth muscles – which later supports chewing and speech. We stock a super fun range of teething toys at Dimples. Babies also love the sound of your voice, so don’t hesitate to chat away, sing, or start reading aloud. Soft crinkly activity books are a great addition as they are very visually interesting to your little one, as well as a high contrast board book. 6–12 Months: The Little Scientist As your baby gets stronger, tummy time becomes key for building neck and upper body strength. Use an engaging play mat to make tummy time fun and motivating. Around six months, proper teething often begins, so toys they can safely chew are your best friends – easing discomfort while supporting oral development. At this stage, babies are all about discovery – they’re working on sitting up, crawling, grasping, and even pulling themselves to stand. Toys that support these physical leaps are ideal. Look for soft balls to encourage rolling and crawling, stacking toys for building early coordination, and activity cubes or busy boards with things to twist, slide, and push. Toys that respond with sound or light when touched can also be hugely exciting (and educational), helping babies connect cause and effect. And don’t forget the classics – things that crinkle, rattle, or squeak are still crowd-pleasers and support sensory development beautifully. 12–18 Months: The Creative Genius You’ve made it through the first year – what a milestone! At this age, many little ones are eager to master walking. A sturdy walker toy can support their balance and leg strength as they wobble around with pride. Fine motor skills also start taking centre stage. Now that your little one is on the move and growing more curious by the day, toys that support exploration, movement, and problem-solving are ideal. Push-and-pull toys like the classic Buzzy Bee or this cute crocodile pull along are perfect for developing balance and coordination as they become more confident on their feet. Large building blocks or stacking rings help improve fine motor skills and spatial awareness. This is also a great age for toys that encourage interest in pretend play – think toy phones, baby dolls, animal figurines, or mini tea sets. Musical instruments like tambourines, shakers, or xylophones are not only fun but also help with rhythm and sensory processing. Chunky crayons are also great for encouraging early scribbles – and those early masterpieces might earn a spot on your fridge. As their vocabulary starts to form and their understanding of language grows, this is the perfect time to keep those conversations flowing. Reading together, singing songs, and chatting about what you’re doing throughout the day helps build their language skills and connection to you. Even if they’re not saying much just yet, they’re absorbing it all – storing up words, rhythms, and tones to use later. 18–24 Months: The Big Personality Welcome to toddlerhood – where the big personality really comes through! At this stage, your child is becoming more independent, showing clear preferences, and beginning to express their likes and dislikes. You might notice them choosing to play solo more often, or forming strong attachments to certain toys, books, routines, or even characters from stories and shows. This is also when pretend play really starts to blossom. Role-playing everyday scenarios – like cooking dinner, feeding a doll, or making a pretend phone call – is not only adorable, it’s an important part of social and emotional development. A toddler-sized kitchen set is a fantastic toy at this age, encouraging imaginative storytelling and helping little ones mimic the world they see around them. One of these Kitchen Helpers let your toddler safely join you at the counter, fostering independence and fine motor skills. By involving them in simple kitchen tasks, you’re nurturing their creativity and boosting their confidence in a hands-on way. Beginner puzzles are also a great choice to foster problem solving skills – Particularly ones with familiar objects such as this zoo puzzle, or this vehicle puzzle. At this age, play becomes more purposeful – every stack, stir, and story is helping your little one make sense of the world and build skills for the future. Go at Their Pace Every baby develops at their own rhythm. Some skip crawling and go straight to walking. Others might take their time with speech while still communicating effectively in their own way. It’s tempting to compare, but there’s a wide range of normal. If you’re ever concerned, have a chat with your GP or child health nurse. Most importantly, be kind to yourself. You're doing an incredible job raising a one-of-a-kind little person. And remember – the best toy of all is you. Your love, voice, and presence are what your baby cherishes most ❤️
