Nine potential gifts for Royal Baby #2

What to get the baby that has everything.

Even though we weren’t invited to the baby shower (or anything else, really), with all the fuss about the new royal baby, we still had babies on the brain.

So, in celebration of the incoming aristocrat, we’ve picked out 10 perfect gifts for the newest royal addition.

This little Guardsman sleepsuit and tiny furry hat is the perfect present for the newborn royal. It says ‘I belong at Buckingham Palace’, without being too ostentatious, like, say, a baby coronation cape. Subtle.

Sleeping in a normal bassinet is – obviously – below a baby of royal birth. We recommend this Beloved 4 poster crib for optimum majestic sleeping.

This crown by Not On The High Street is perfect for those occasions where you need to let people know you’re royalty, but still want to roll around on the floor.

Corgis are the unofficial pet of the royal family, so this stuffed plush Corgi from the Royal Collection Trust Shop is the perfect toy for a baby Prince or Princess to play with, without getting royal baby hands bitten. Bonus: It also comes with a lead (for walks around Kensington gardens) and a medallion that says ‘Buckingham Palace’ (so people know where to return it to, if it gets lost).

Even though Royal Baby #2 probably won’t sit on the Throne because of big brother George, it still deserves it’s own tiny replica of great-grandma Elizabeth’s imperial state crown. It might even foster some good old fashioned competition. Which we think is healthy.

Even noble babies are fussy sleepers. We recommend Her Majesty, the Queen herself come in to read a rousing rendition of ‘Shhh! Don’t Wake the Royal Baby!’. We bet she could do the voices really well.

For an easily packaged gift, we recommend the Tiffany’s silver spoon. So the new addition can be born with a silver spoon, both literally and metaphorically.

For a Princess, might we suggest a tiny imitation of her great-grandmother’s jubilee carriage? It’s exactly the same, except the Little Devil’s Direct version has frilly curtains, love heart wheels and it’s pink. Close enough.

Or, of course, 10 feet tall teddy bears. There’s one for each gender, to cover all bases, and they’re already wearing tiaras.
