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.
1. Tuxedo Onesie Bodysuit
Funny Because…..Because a baby wearing a tuxedo is funny. For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see Top 12 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Clothes.
2. Goodnight iPad
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
5. The “Mute Button” – Pacifier
Funny Because…..Because pacifiers do often mimic the “mute” button on a remote control when it comes to babies.
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”
Funny Because…It’s a baby with a mustache! (Hehe!)
8. Weird-Looking Animal 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 (2013).
9. Daddy’s Little Tax Deduction
Funny Because……Children really are tax deduction. My friends who are accountants find this to be hilarious. For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see Top 12 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Clothes.
10. The “I Only Cry When Ugly People Hold Me” Baby Onesie
Funny Because….Because people get really insecure when you let them hold your baby, and when they do, your baby starts crying. For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see Top 12 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Clothes.
11. All My Friends Are Dead – Book
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
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
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
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
Funny Because…Because babies dressed like sharks are adorable. For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see Top 12 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Clothes.
16. Little Night Owl – Sleep 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
Funny Because….The caps have little antennas and doggy ears. How are these not adorable? For a more practical list of newborn and baby clothing items, see Top 12 Must-Have Newborn and Baby Clothes.
18. The “Gimme a Kiss” Pacifier
19. I Drink ‘Til I Pass Out
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).
