Few moments call for a truly special gift like the arrival of a new baby. At Things Engraved, our personalized baby gifts are designed to become keepsakes — engraved and embroidered pieces that mark the baby's name, birth date, and the love behind the gift. Whether you're shopping for a baby shower, welcoming a newborn, or celebrating a baptism or first birthday, every item in this collection can be customized in just a few clicks and shipped anywhere in Canada.
Keepsake Baby Gifts That Last a Lifetime
Engraved Pewter Baby Banks
Our engraved pewter banks — from the classic elephant and train to the Noah's Ark bank — are among our most-loved baby gifts. Personalized with the baby's name and birth date, they start as nursery décor and grow into a child's very first savings bank, making them a meaningful gift for grandparents, godparents, and aunts and uncles to give.
Baptism & Christening Gifts
Celebrate a baby's christening with our pewter baptism sets, engraved cross plaques, hanging crosses, and baptism certificate holders. Explore the full range of baptism gifts and religious gifts for more ways to mark this milestone.

Embroidered Security Blankets & Baby Blankets
Soft knit security blankets — topped with a bunny, bear, or elephant — can be embroidered with the baby's name for a comforting bedtime companion. Browse our full collection of personalized baby blankets for more snuggly options.
Hooded Baby Towels & Bibs
Practical gifts new parents actually use every day: our custom embroidered hooded baby towels make bath time adorable, while personalized baby bibs — including the playful Baby Dino Bib in eight colours — add charm to mealtime.
Custom Plush Animals
From embroidered teddy bears to stuffed elephants, unicorns, and bulldogs, our personalized plush animals become the baby's first best friend — stitched with their name so it's theirs forever.
Baby Gifts for Parents & Milestones
New parents deserve a keepsake too. Our engravable picture frames capture that unforgettable first photo, and musical water globes add a magical touch to the nursery.

FAQs
What are the best personalized baby gifts for newborns?
Embroidered security blankets, hooded baby towels, and custom plush animals are our most popular newborn gifts — soft, practical, and made personal with the baby's name. For a keepsake that lasts, engraved pewter baby banks are a timeless choice.
What is a good baby shower gift that stands out?
A personalized gift always stands out at a baby shower. An embroidered security blanket or plush animal with the baby's name feels far more thoughtful than something off the registry. If the name isn't announced yet, a gift engraved with the birth date after arrival — like a pewter bank — is a lovely option. Browse more ideas in our baby shower gifts collection.
Do you have baptism and christening gifts for babies?
Yes — our pewter baptism sets, engraved cross plaques, hanging cross wall art, and baptism certificate holders are designed specifically for christenings and dedications. See the complete baptism gifts collection for more.
How do I personalize a baby gift with the baby's name or birth date?
Simply choose your gift and enter the baby's name, initials, birth date, or a short message using our online customization tool at checkout. Our craftspeople handle the engraving or embroidery, and your finished keepsake ships directly to you or the new parents.
When should I give a baby gift?
There's no wrong time. Baby shower gifts are typically given before the birth, while keepsake gifts engraved with the baby's name and birth date — like banks, frames, and blankets — are perfect once the baby arrives. Personalized gifts also make wonderful presents for baptisms, first Christmases, and first birthdays.
