We just had my daugher's last month. My unlce got her a angel blanket with her name and the date put on it. It was very cute and its something she can use for a long time.
Savings bonds are a good idea, but they don't work as well as they use to. We got a lot of cash, but we also have a collage fund for our daughter so we just put it in there for her. We never spent the money.
