It’s so exciting, sitting around the table as a family, all enjoying the festivities together and watching everyone tucking into a delicious meal - this personalised plate is a must! It's also really important to make sure that baby has somewhere safe and secure to eat; Mamas & Papas have you covered with this fabulously stylish and easy to clean Juice Highchair. We also love the Bug 3-in-1 Booster Seat from Mamas & Papas for those of you who will be dinner guests, as it's easily portable.

Christmas Keepsakes

Precious and sentimental keepsakes for your memory boxes could take the shape of a Christmas item; something personalised would be perfect for you to look back at in years to come! This is why we adore this baby's 1st Christmas bauble, it's a great way to commemorate that precious first visit from Santa Claus. The photo frame we also spotted would make a lovely gift for any new parent so that they can remember the special day!

Even if baby is too young to undertand that Santa needs a sweet treat, you can create a fun game with them or get older siblings involved with this personalised platter. It's a fab way to make memories - one day, they'll find that plate in the attic and share the stories behind it with their own children. Thinking about it makes us feel emotional!

Finally, the personalised Christmas stockings we found are another lovely keepsake for you to remember these magical moments one day in the distant future. This stocking is ultra soft with a faux fur trim, and is utterly adorable.
