Baby showers are the kind of occasion that cries out for a personalized gift! There are so many baby gifts that can be personalized - blankets, rattles, photo albums, keepsake boxes… And when a blanket, rattle, photo album and keepsake box is personalized it makes for a delightful gift for a delightful baby. However, for the ultimate baby shower gift - how about a bookcase full of personalized books?!

In an article published on Beacon News Online, the author writes about how she received a baby shower invitation which had a note asking for her to bring a favourite book from her childhood or fromm her children’s younger days and personalize it for the expected baby.  Every guest to the baby shower brought along a book and the end result was a bookcase full of classic stories, personalized with the child’s name, which the child will be able to enjoy for many years to come. How wonderful.

Many children are not so lucky though, and a national organization, called First Books, has made it their mission to give books to less unfortunate children so that they too can have a bookcase full of wonderful stories. Read more about the organization here.

Like most people, I have a digital camera, and like most people, I like to use my digital camera to take lots of photos of the adorable children in my life. Whenever I see my three nephews, I quite happily snap away and they quite happily pose for me. As my nephew are so adorable I can’t really take a bad photo but once in a while I take a photo which I absolutely love because it captures a special moment perfectly with a cheeky grin or a thoughtful glance or a funny pose. A photo like that is worthy of printing out, putting in a lovely frame and displaying on the wall for everyone to see. But have you considered that a special photo can also have another use? Photos are a fantastic way of personalizing a gift for a child. Such personalized kids gifts include teddy bears, photo puzzles, playing cards, sweatshirts, and my personal favourite, books. With children’s personalized books not only is the child’s name and other unique information printed throughout the book, a photo of the child can also be printed on the pages.

So if you’re stuck for a perfect gift idea for an adorable kid, why not get snapping and personalize a special gift with a very special photo.

A novel idea - now you can give a personalized novel as a gift…

My nephew recently turned 8. I had no idea what gift to buy him and I wanted to surprise him with something different and fun. So I was absolutely delighted when a friend told me about personalized books. My nephew likes to read but he also cannot resist the lure of the computer game. When I came across the ‘world’s first full-length personalized children’s novels‘ for ages 6-12 I knew I was on to a winner. He was totally engrossed in his own personalized adventure.
