19 Baby Gifts With a Twist of Humor

I've been trying to limit my baby product recommendations to practical items, but I recently decided that funny, humor-based newborn and baby gifts deserved attention too.  Below is a list of funny newborn and baby gifts that I, personally, find to be funny and/or adorably and ridiculously cute.  If you are looking for a baby gift for someone that has a sense of humor, then you might enjoy this list. Keep in mind that whether you find some of these items funny (or not) is largely dependent on your type of humor.

19 Funny Baby Gifts

1.   Tuxedo Onesie Bodysuit

Link:   Frenchie Mini Couture Onesie Bodysuit, Tuxedo 

Funny Because.....Because a baby wearing a tuxedo is funny.  




2.   Goodnight iPad

Link:   Goodnight iPad: a Parody for the next generation 

Funny Because...I probably don't need to explain why this is funny.  This is a funny parody on the book "Goodnight Moon," that any tech-savvy family can appreciate.  For a more practical list of favorite baby books, see Top 10 Baby Books for Baby's First Years.

3.   Monsters Eat Whiny Children - Book

Link:   Monsters Eat Whiny Children 

Funny Because...Because monsters don't really actually eat whiny children.  This for those with a darker sense of humor, and for kids with a good grasp on fantasy vs. reality.   For a more practical list of favorite baby books, see Top 10 Baby Books for Baby's First Years.




4.   The Baby Owner's Manual

Link:   The Baby Owner's Manual: Operating Instructions, Trouble-Shooting Tips, and Advice on First-Year Maintenance 

Funny Because.....At some point, a "troubleshooting manual" would really come in handy for that newborn of yours.  This book is great for the engineering "type" of dad.  (Mr. Mia loves this book).  For my favorite "troubleshooting" baby items, see Top 25 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Items for a complete list of must-haves for newborns and babies.   

5.   The "Mute Button" - Pacifier

Link:   Mute Button Pacifier 

Funny Because.....Because pacifiers do often mimic the "mute" button on a remote control when it comes to babies.

6.   "These Fools Put My Cape On Backwards" Bib

Link:   These Fools Put My Cape On Backwards Bib 

Funny Because.....This bib is my favorite, and it makes me laugh every time I think about it.   For a list of our most practical baby bibs, see Top 5 Must-Have Baby Bibs, or see Top 25 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Items for a list of all must-have practical baby items




7.   Mustache Pacifier -"Mustachifier"

Link:   Mustachifier - The Gentleman Mustache Pacifier 

Funny Because...It's a baby with a mustache!  (Hehe!)




8.   Weird-Looking Animal Bibs

Link:   Animal Face Baby Bibs  

Funny Because....I just think the animals have funny-looking faces.  For a list of our most practical baby bibs, see Top 5 Must-Have Baby Bibs.




9.   Daddy's Little Tax Deduction

Link:   Daddy's Little Tax Deduction 

Funny Because......Children really are tax deduction.  My friends who are accountants find this to be hilarious.   




10.   The "I Only Cry When Ugly People Hold Me" Baby Onesie

Link:   I Only Cry When Ugly People Hold Me on Infant Onesie

Funny Because....Because people get really insecure when you let them hold your baby, and when they do, your baby starts crying. 




11.   All My Friends Are Dead - Book

  

Link:   All My Friends Are Dead 

Link:   All My Friends Are Still Dead 

Funny Because.....These books have a very clever, dark sense of humor.  This book is NOT for kids - it's for adults (an interesting coffee table book that makes for a good conversation starter when friends come over).  It also makes a great "bathroom" book.  For a list of the best books that actually for for babies and children, see Top 10 Baby Books for Baby's First Years.




12.   Go the F**k to Sleep

Link:  Go the F**k to Sleep 

Funny Because.... I, personally, find this book funny, but this book will not be funny for parents who have perfect kids, or parents who dislike swearing.  This book is NOT for kids - it's a parody of a children's book for adults - specifically for adults who have struggled with "bedtime" and sleeping with children.  First-time parents (especially first-time moms who are still pregnant) will not find this funny.   For a list of the best books that actually for for babies and children, see Top 10 Baby Books for Baby's First Years.




13.   Belly Laughs, by Jenny McCarthy

Link:  Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth 

Funny Because.....Jenny McCarthy "says it like it is" when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth  (from stretch marks to gas and much more).  This makes for a great baby shower present.



14.   The "Pull to Sound Alarm" - Pacifier

 

Link:   Personalized Pacifiers Pull to Sound Alarm Pacifier 

Funny Because....Much like the Mute Button Pacifier, this idea holds true for many babies - pull out the pacifier, and the baby will be sure to sounds his alarm.

15.   Shark Baby Robe

Link:   Baby Aspen Let The Fin Begin Terry Shark Robe 

Funny Because...Because babies dressed like sharks are adorable.  



16.   Little Night Owl - Sleep Sack and Cap

Link:   Baby Aspen My Little Night Owl Snuggle Sack and Cap 

Funny Because....Because it's a baby dressed like an owl!  This is actually a practical gift too because sleep sacks are actually something that you truly need for a baby (see Top 25 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Items for more practical baby items).




17.   Animal Baby Swaddle Wraps

Link:    Beehave Swaddle and Cap Set

Link:    Sozo Baby-boys Newborn Puppy Swaddle Blanket and Cap  

Link:    Swaddle Blanket and Cap Set - Ladybug

Funny Because....The caps have little antennas and doggy ears.  How are these not adorable? 




18.   The "Gimme a Kiss"  Pacifier 

Link:    Gimme a Kiss Pacifier  

Funny Because...because this pacifier will make your baby look like she's giving you a kissy face.

19.  I Drink 'Til I Pass Out

Link:   Baby Onesies - I Drink 'Til I Pass Out Onesie

Funny Because.....Not everyone will find the humor in this onesie.  This is a better gift for NON-first-time-parents who understand that a bottle/breast puts a baby to sleep (otherwise they will probably just think you are extremely rude and wonder why you gave them such an inappropriate gift).  For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see  Top 25 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Items.
