Clothing

• A myriad of baseball baby outfits exist in the market. One gift idea is a mock uniform of a major league baseball team, available in sizes from newborn to toddler. Divisions I college teams also produce baby uniforms with the team logo. Consider the team the family roots for when buying clothing such as jackets, sweatshirts, T-shirts, infant-sized baseball caps and mock stirrup socks and cleats, and buy items with the team's logo or in team colors. Personalize a baseball jersey with the baby's name.
  
  

Jewelry

• Baby baseball jewelry offers a distinctive way to celebrate the birth of a baby. Gifts in this category include silver feeding spoons in the shape of a baseball bat, small earrings, bracelets or anklets featuring the family's baseball team or a charm for the baby's scrapbook. For a more personal touch, visit a bead store and create a bracelet spelling out the baby's name in team colors or include a pendant with a baseball team's logo and the baby's initials.
  
  

Equipment

• Although a baby will not be ready to take the field, give him his baseball or baseball glove. Get the baseball signed by a favorite baseball player and set it aside as a keepsake. Encourage parents to bring a glove back out when the child is old enough to play tee-ball. There is a chance the child will need a different glove, depending on which hand she throws with. Right-handed throwers are more common than left-handed throwers, so the odds are in your favor it you pick a glove for a right-hander. Mock equipment, such as mini-bats or soft baseballs large enough not to swallow can become toys for toddlers.
  
  

Toys

• Baseball toys can help instill a love of the game while engaging and teaching the baby as he begins to grow. Stackable baseball toys, toy bats, puzzles and musical toys all are options. Add a soft look to the baby's room with baseball pillows and stuff animals dressed like players. Purchase toys that are age-appropriate. For instance, if you want the baby to play with the toy soon, buy a toy for newborns to 1 year.
