Clothing made
with a tartan makes a great Scottish baby gift.
Scotland is rich in history, tradition and native pride. For this reason, there are many traditional Scottish gifts that can be given to celebrate a new baby. From traditional tartan clothing to bibs and onesies featuring Scottie dogs or the legendary "Nessie," a mythical monster said to living in the Loch Ness, there is something for every Scot baby.
Traditional Scottish Tartans
Scottish families are identified as clans, and each clan has a special tartan to represent them. Tartan is a cloth woven with stripes in a criss-cross pattern of different thicknesses and colors. A family's last name or district where they come from determines their particular tartan. Clothing made from the family's tartan is a traditional Scottish baby gift. Bibs, booties, kilts, dresses, pants and even vests and bow ties are available in tartan.
Scottish Toys
Scottish Highland cattle are an ancient breed.
Soft plush toys are perfect gifts for babies to cuddle and play with. Scottie-dog stuffed animals are a nice gift idea for dog-loving Scot babies. Teddy bears wearing tartan vests or sweaters are another cuddly option. Highland cows, an old Scottish breed known for their long horns and long wavy coat, are a unique stuffed animal choice.
Coat of Arms
Scottish clans all have their own unique coat of arms.
Scottish families take pride in their heritage and a baby gift with their family's coat of arms is a nice way to celebrate the new addition to their family. Baby hats, onesies, bibs and wooden plaques can all be emblazoned with a family's coat of arms.
