Acknowledging baby gifts is part and parcel of giving your newborn a warm welcome into the family.
Any thoughtful gift by a friend, relative, or friend at work would be more than appreciated. it would put smiles on their faces when there is a word of thanks, and deepen your relationship with the people.
Here are some examples and tips that may help you write the perfect thank-you note.
Be on Time
It is never out of season to express gratitude. Your thank you note mailed a couple of of weeks after the gift’s arrival, lets the sender know that you do appreciate the fact that he or she was thinking about you.
This also helps to keep the occasion fresh in both your minds, making your message more meaningful.
Actionable Steps:
Set yourself a reminder so that shortly after your baby shower, or when gifts begin to arrive, the thank-you notes can be written.
Keep tabs on the gifts and who gave them so that you remember who to thank.
Personalize Your Message
It would show that a person is special and appreciated with a personalized thank-you note. Stating the actual gift and how it is going to be used proves that you have taken time over their gesture.
Actionable Steps:
Name the gift specifically and describe how it will benefit you and your baby.
Share something about yourself, either a personal anecdote related to the gift or what you intend to do in the future with the item.
Use a Warm Tone
 Your tone of message should depict actual warmth and thankfulness.
Gratitude from the bottom of one’s heart, thereby leaving an imprint, can cement your relationship with the giver.
Actionable Steps:
Use amiable language and a conversational writing style.
Avoid using overly formal language unless it serves your purpose of putting the recipient at ease with the sender.

Consider the Medium
The way to express gratitude will depend on the relationship with the giver.
Traditional and personal are handwritten thank-you notes, while email or text messages are better for close friends or family.
Actionable Steps:
Choose a medium that’s appropriate for the relationship. For example, a handwritten note for a grandparent versus a text for a close friend may be appropriate.
If one is going to use any form of digital communication, then the personal touch, such as attaching a picture of the baby with the gift, will also serve the purpose.
