We received your Baby’s First Library Gift Basket when our daughter was born and it was my favourite gift. It was so beautifully presented and the books themselves are just gorgeous. A great idea for a gift!

There aren’t many nice Christening gifts around these days but this gift basket is beautiful. I bought it for my new niece and her parents and the books are just lovely. And I just adore the basket – so cute. Thank you.

Reading is so important and such a joy and I’m all for starting to read aloud as early as possible. Your gift baskets are just beautiful and are always received with lots of wows! I’ve just ordered my fourth, this time for a new little one-year-old.

Whether you're looking for christening gifts for girls or christening gifts for boys or for gifts to give at a baptism, our Christening Gift Basket is perfect for babies and for little ones up to the age of four.

It also makes a wonderful gift for a baby-naming ceremony, baby shower or for that special first birthday.

The books for babies in our Christening Gift Basket have been carefully chosen to enhance the development of young brains by providing a variety of listening and reading experiences. They've also been chosen to be a joyful and fun introduction for children to the Bible, the story of Jesus and to prayer.

Your Christening Gift Basket contains the following books for babies and young children:

  • The Usborne Illustrated Children's Bible: a beautifully-illustrated hard-cover book containing stories from the old and new testaments;
  • Noah's Two by Two: a rhyming, counting-by-twos board book, with cute tabs to help little ones turn the pages;
  • Bible Animals: a mini library of six cute board books in their own slip-case;
  • Joseph and His Wonderful Coat: a board book version of the story of Joseph and his brothers;
  • Animal Tales from the Bible: four favourite stories about Jesus designed for 3-6-year-olds;
  • A Child's First Book of Prayers: a gorgeous, hard-cover book of prayers for every occasion;
  • Near: a beautifully-illustrated, large-format board book version of Psalm 139;

Please note that the book cover images shown here may differ to those in the basket depending on the print edition.

A cute, super-soft Jellycat Poppet Lamb is great for little hands to hold while listening to the story.

Our signature gift baskets are a beautiful way to store the books so that they're handy for impromptu reading snuggles during the day. As the baby grows, the basket is a fun and convenient way to make the books accessible for little ones, with space for more books as their library grows.

Materials

Our beautiful baskets are made especially for The Book Basket Company to our specifications and are sturdy enough to stand up to a bit of less-than-gentle handling from little ones. The cute liners are sewn for us here in Sydney by a lovely lady who operates her small business from home.

Basket: white-painted cane
Basket liner: 100% cotton
Jellycat Little Lamb soft toy: polyester, plastic bead filling

Care Guide

Your Christening Gift Basket is designed to stand up to normal wear-and-tear and to handling by young children:

Basket: wipe gently with a damp cloth.
Liner: wash gently in cold water, if needed. Line dry. Do not tumble dry as the cotton will shrink.
Jellycat sheep soft toy: spot clean with a damp cloth to remove any marks. Can be hand-washed. Air dry.

Books: board books are designed to be handled by babies and small children and we encourage this as it’s an important part of how little ones get to know and love books. Yes, the books are likely to become a bit worn but we think that’s OK. We suggest being a bit careful with The Lion Children’s Bible as this is not a board book and with Bible Mini-Pops because the pop-up pieces are easily damaged by little fingers. You may like to keep these two books out of reach of the under-2s, to be shared as read-alouds with Mum or Dad.

Our gift baskets are shrink-wrapped to prevent the books moving around in transit. Each gift basket is protected by a layer of biodegradable, eco-friendly fill inside its shipping box:

Guarantee

We’re sure you and the little bookworm in your life will love your Christening Gift Basket but if for any reason you don’t please don’t worry. You can return your gift basket, no questions asked, and we’ll give you a full refund, including postage.
