Summer really seems to be baby season this year! A lot of my friends are expecting babies soon and it was magical watching the highlights of Princess Charlotte’s christening last weekend. So, with our 2015 BABY AWARDS closing on 15 July (this Wednesday!) and in honour of all you mums and dads expecting new arrivals this summer – including lovely Sam, our head judge! – we’ve been shopping for cool mum and baby gift ideas. Here’s what we found. (Check back for more baby and new mum gifts in Part 2 next week).

Have a lovely weekend!
1) Escape for a fun day out on the farm: Childs Farm
100% adorable! Childs Farm
First up is Childs Farm. Joanna’s fun, eczema-soothing brand have just launched their first little try-me kit for £7.95 – but it’s just £5 if you buy one before the end of July. Four summer-friendly products “from pool to playground” in one airport-friendly mini kit. L-O-V-E. There’s a lot of love around for Childs Farm’s award-winning Hair Detangler (£4.75) so if you get this set you can try it along with the other three products for just £5.
2) Wrap things up in a Hammama…
These colourful, quick-dry clever Turkish cotton towels make great summer baby blankets, sarongs, throws…whatever you want them to be, basically!
Union Jack colours with a raspberry twist
3) The Baby Subscription Box
We love MORI’s cool neutral shades and if you sign up for their subscription box, they’ll send a boxed set of bespoke baby essentials every 6 weeks.
