A woodland baby shower feels cozy and calm: soft greens and browns, little foxes and bears, pine cones on the table. It is also naturally gender neutral, which makes it a popular choice for parents who are waiting to find out or who simply love the look.

If you are heading to a woodland shower, a forest animal outfit is a gift that fits the theme perfectly. Here are woodland baby shower gift ideas, plus a few tips for the host.

Wrap it like the forest

  • Kraft paper and twine instead of shiny paper.
  • Tuck in a sprig of eucalyptus, pine or a small pine cone.
  • Roll the bodysuit and tie it with twine like a tiny log bundle.
  • Pair it with a woodland board book about bears or foxes.

Woodland shower tips for the host

  • Decor: wood slices as cake stands, moss runners, pine cones and paper leaves.
  • Colors: sage, cream, rust and warm brown photograph beautifully.
  • Activity: a "decorate a bodysuit" station or a guest book made from a wood slice.
  • Favors: small succulents or honey jars with a "sweet as can bee" tag.

Frequently asked questions

Is a woodland theme good for a boy or a girl?

Both. Woodland is one of the most popular gender neutral shower themes.

What size should I buy?

Parents get lots of newborn clothes, so a 0–6 or 6–12 month size is often more useful.

Can I add the baby's name?

The forest friends bodysuit and the birthday designs above let you add a name. Each product page shows exactly which details you can add.
