Vegan Baby Gifts: UK Shopping guide For Vegan Parents

Let’s face it. Being invited to a vegan baby shower, or buying for vegan parents, can be a daunting task. Not wanting to be present mum and dad with a gift that isn’t cruelty-free, you’ll likely search high and low for vegan baby gifts UK and gifts for the parents, and yet, still have no idea what you are doing. At Yellodoor, we believe that the process of buying gifts for a baby and expecting parents should be both fun and exciting. For that reason, we’ve compiled this list of vegan-approved items to make your gift-buying that much more simple.

Vegan Baby Gifts UK

When purchasing a gift for a vegan baby or vegan parents, it is important to keep in mind the purpose of veganism.

Veganism is marked by compassion for animals and a willingness to forsake all animal products, byproducts, and even locations, to further advocate for the cause.

For many vegan families, events like baby showers and birthdays can be a nail-biting experience. While all recipients of gifts will likely appreciate the thoughtfulness of whatever you purchase, the truth is that many gifts may go unused, or may even be looked at as offensive, depending on what you’ve purchased.

Gifts like snacks that contain animal byproducts, fur or leather are always a no-go for vegan gift-giving, and you’ll also want to avoid less obvious gestures like giving a vegan family tickets to the zoo.

With all of that in mind, the following are some great vegan baby products UK that you might wish to consider the next time you want to buy for a vegan couple that is expecting a new baby:

What Are the Best Baby Gifts?

Many wonder, “What gifts should you be looking for during a baby shower?” or “What is the best gift to give a newborn baby?” These questions are valid, and even moreso when talking about a vegan baby shower and purchasing vegan baby stuff.

First and foremost, you’ll want to educate yourself on what it means to be vegan. Following that, you’ll want to take note of items to steer clear of when purchasing baby gifts for the couple, based on their convictions.

Some of the things you’ll want to avoid is anything that consists of fur, cashmere, leather (except leather that is designated as “vegan”), pearls, honey and of course, meat.

Once you’ve educated yourself on the parameters of veganism, you can go shopping. Check out PETA’s ultimate guide to vegan baby shower gifts or compose a list of items you’d like to purchase on your own. Pay close attention to tags and labels and, if you wish to buy mum and dad snacks for the labour room, just be sure to double check that the snacks are indeed vegan. See our post on how to pick delicious vegan sweets in the UK.

Bearing the above restrictions in mind, some great baby gift ideas for vegans and non-vegans alike include essential items like diapers, wipes, bibs, clothing and blankets. Other ideas are things like diaper rash balm, vegan baby toiletries, swaddles, baby hats, socks and cruelty-free vegan diaper bags.

If you are interested in treating the couple (Babymoon, anyone?) consider purchasing a gift certificate for a couple’s massage or a night out on the town at their favourite vegan restaurant.

No matter what you choose, just be sure to do your research beforehand. We’re sure the vegan parents-to-be will appreciate the effort you’ve put into purchasing something they and their baby can use… and you’ll be relieved, too!

Buying For Vegan Parents and Baby Is Fun!

Remember, this is a joyous time for everyone involved.

To be sure that your gift is okay, do your research, look closely at labels and check in with the parents about your gift ideas ahead of time, if you need to.

To be extra safe, you may wish to look over the couple’s registry if they have one, and purchase only the vegan baby products that they’ve requested.

At the end of the day, if you purchase something that violates their beliefs or offends them, it won’t be of much use to them, anyway.

We hope this helps! Happy shopping!
