Baby items starting with A

1. Alphabet book

As its name suggests, the alphabet book is mainly designed for young kids and presents alphabet letters with corresponding images or words. Some alphabet books feature lowercase and capital case letter forms. (Buy from Amazon)

They help in developing proficiency in oral language and conversations, building vocabulary, teaching phonics, making text connections, predicting, recognizing a point of view, etc.

2. Activity toys

These are an excellent addition to your baby items checklist. They play an essential part in your child’s development, development of motors skills, learning to play with others, nurture imagination and creativity, help in problem solving, promote self esteem, etc.

Your child can start benefits from these educational toys as early as one month. Below are some of my educational toys recommendations based on the age of your child.

1-12 months– at this age, you will need to stimulate your little one’s senses. Toys such as soothers, mobiles, infant play gyms will help your baby focus on sensory play through touch, sound, and sight.

12-24 months- at one year, your child will be highly mobile. You can invest in toys such as ride toys, push cars, walkers to help in balance and coordination. You can also add themed playsets to help improve your child’s recognition skills.

2years plus- At this age, you can introduce toys that will help promote physical play such as basketball hoops, balance bikes, and tricycles.

3. Abacus

This is a calculating tool that has been around for ages tracing its origin between 2700-2300BC. It helps teach simple math to your little ones, such as addition, counting, and subtraction. It can also help your baby distinguish between the different point from one another, improve vision, and assist in coordination.

4. Alphabet blocks

These are some classic educational toys designed for little hands. Each single block measures about 1 inch, features four blank sides and two different letters. These toy blocks are made of plastic, foam, or wooden materials. They help build strength in a child’s hands and fingers and enhance eye-hand coordination.

Also, these toys help educate children about different letters, numbers, and shapes. They help encourage children to cooperate and make new friends and also improve their math skills.

5. Aromatherapy oil

Also known as essential oils are extracted from plants and have many uses for both babies and mother. According to an article published on the Healthline website, the use of aromatherapy oil on babies can help encourage sleep, relieve symptoms of colic, and even calm anxiety. (Source).

Before applying essential oils to your little one, it’s essential to understand the appropriate dilution and application methods.

Baby Items Starting with B

6. Bassinet

Also known as a cradle, bassinette- bassinet is a bed designed for babies less than four months old. They are designed to provide gliding or rocking motion.

The American Academy of Pediatrics advises that new moms let their babies sleep in the same room but different bed because it helps reduce the risks of sudden infant deaths (SIDS). It also makes evening breastfeedings easier because as a mother, you don’t have to walk to the baby nursery.

7. Baby dolls

A child’s doll is a baby’s first best friend before they can form real human friendships. A doll can be used by both a girl and a boy. A doll helps improve your child’s cognitive skills, develop nurturing and caring skills, enhance self-help and motor skills, and also prepare your child for a new sibling.

8. Breast pumps

If you aren’t breastfeeding your little one, a pump will come in handy. Even if you are breastfeeding, you will need a pump when going back to work. You can get a manual pump if you won’t regularly be pumping or as a backup for your electric breast pump.

If you will be exclusively pumping, you will need an electric breast pump to get the job done and make sure that your baby’s little stomach is always full.

9. Blankets

Blankets should be on your priority items in not only the list of baby items starting with B but also in your baby items checklist. Your little one body will sometimes need to adjust to the outside environment and temperatures, and hence, a blanket will help him adjust just fine.

You can get these Burt’s Bees Baby-Beekeeper Wearable Blankets. They are sleeping bag sort of blankets and will keep your baby warm even during the cold months. Alternatively, you can choose your preferred blanket selection here.

10. Breastmilk storage bags and bottles

If you are pumping, you will need storage bags and bottles for Breastmilk. These are designed to be compact and also leakage proof. They are highly affordable. In addition, some of these Breastmilk storage bottles are odor-proof- they are equipped with a high quality seal that cannot allow odor to get in. This design comes in handy because in most cases you’ll be storing your Breastmilk in the fridge where odors will be circulating through the stored food items. You’ll also need bottles for feeding purposes.

11. Books

Books will help your child to develop motor skills and reading skills. My recommendation would be for you to introduce black and white pattern books first then colored patterns books and later when your baby is big enough, you introduce colored drawings with letters and words.

12. Burp cloths

In my previous articles on “how many baby burp cloths you need,” we saw that more than 50% of infants are likely to spit up. For this reason, you will need a burp cloth- an absorbent fabric that is placed on the shoulder to absorb spit-up mess.

13. Baby Bouncer

Instead of focusing on the myths that surround baby bouncers, let get to see some of the benefits they give. Because they are made to hold your little one in the seat with a smooth bouncing motion- they can help baby sleep.

Rather than bouncing the baby in your arms every time you need to soothe them or get them to sleep, a baby bouncer seat will help you give your arms a break and let him enjoy the bouncing motion.

14. Booties

In the first few months of your child’ s life, coziness is key. You’ll need to keep your baby comfortable from head to toes- and investing in a pair of booties will highly help you achieve this.

Baby booties are not shoes and not quite socks. They are soft and structured as footwear for your baby- something that will keep your little one’s feet covered warmly. Booties have gripper bottoms to help create friction and a firm grip on the floor for those learning to walk.

15. Crib

Purchasing a crib is a good idea for parents for the safety of their babies. As a parent, you have to choose a crib with good features that will be suitable for your babies rest and healthy growth. There are a few factors to put into consideration when selecting the type of crib to buy which include; the material used to make it should be free from toxins, slat distance- the space between the slats shouldn’t exceed six cm in reducing the risk of your baby’s legs sticking between them. Read guide on how many crib sheets you need.

25. E45 cream

It’s normal for your little one to develop rashes once in a while either on their face or any part of the body. Rashes are common in babies and infants due to their delicate skin still adjusting to the harsh and tough outside environment.

Then we have the LOL Elmo. Can you guess what this toy does? Well, here’s what it does- when you press its feet, the toy makes silly sounds and tells you jokes. The toy also loves some silly jokes and laughs and it’ll laugh back at your toddler’s funny jokes. (Check out the LOL Elmo here).

28. Electric Bottle Warmer

Dealing with formula or breast milk can be quite complicated, and honestly, it’s at times annoying. You prepare that perfect bottle for your little one, and within 10 minutes, it’s no longer warm, and your baby refuses to drink.

Then you toss the bottle in the microwave, but then it’s hot, and you fear plastic toxins leaching from the bottle into the milk. An electric bottle warmer will help you deal with this problem. You’ll warm your baby’s milk in no time whenever you need to feed him.

62. Nipples and noise machine

Also known as teats, nipples are designed to mimic an actual breast nipple. Newborns suck on these during the first few months especially when a mother does not have enough milk coming in yet. The teats are made of rubber, latex, or silicone.
