Common Questions About Your Neighbor's Gifts

What's an appropriate amount to spend on a gift for a neighbor's new baby?

For a neighbor, a thoughtful, smaller gift is perfectly appropriate. Generally, a budget of $15-$30 is common and appreciated. The gesture is more important than the price.

Are there any gifts I should avoid giving to a neighbor's baby?

Avoid very large items unless you know they have space, toys with very small parts, anything heavily scented, or overly personal clothing. Stick to safe, universally appealing baby items.

Is it okay to give a gift card for a neighbor's baby?

Yes, a small gift card to a local baby store or a general retailer like Target can be very useful for new parents, allowing them to choose exactly what they need.
