AFF | Halloween is a time for sweets, costumes, spooky home decor, pumpkin-themed food, trick or treating, and more. There’s no age limit on the fun, you’re never too old and you’re certainly never too young. What better way of introducing a child to the magic of All Hallows’ Eve than by giving them their first Halloween gift? We’re not talking scary stuff here, we don’t want to put them off from an early age 🙂 And we’re not looking to spend a fortune either, so here are my 10 favourite Halloween gifts for babies over on Etsy
* that won’t break the bank.
10 Cute and Affordable Halloween Gifts for Babies on Etsy
I love to shop on Etsy for my home and garden, and for special occasions such as leaving presents, or wedding, anniversary, and birthday gift ideas. They have the best selection of uniquely perfect gifts from creators that you just won’t find on the high street. Plus, of course, you’re helping to support small independent retailers as well. So, if you’re looking for Halloween baby gifts, or fun Halloween presents for kids of all ages, I really think you’ll be spoilt for choice.
The Best Halloween Gifts for Newborns and Infants
In case you were wondering, the term newborn usually refers to a baby from birth to about 2 months of age. Infants can be considered children anywhere from birth to 1 year old. So then, what do you give a baby or 1 year old for Halloween? Here are some of the best Halloween gifts for newborns.
Halloween Baby Blanket or Plush Toy
How cute are these handcrafted bat plush toys? Perfect as a comfort object at bedtime or whenever your baby needs something to cuddle. With the wings spread out, they can also be used as a security blanket too. Wouldn’t one of these make a gorgeous personalised Halloween gift for a baby boy or a baby girl?

Halloween Pumpkin Baby Shoes and Bandana / Bib
I know crocheted or knitted baby booties are always popular, but wool can often irritate a baby’s delicate skin. So, I love these cotton baby shoes with a fleece inner, and corduroy sole for extra durability and grip. They come with a matching bandana (or bib), backed with soft, absorbent white bamboo towelling.

Halloween Baby Teether / Baby Sensory Toy
OK, I know these cute Halloween bat silicone teethers are for babies, but I really want to play with them too! Easy to clean and sterilise, they’re also 100% BPA, Latex, PVC, Phthalate, and Nitrosamine Free. The ridged back side provides teething relief by massaging your baby’s gums, plus, they helps stimulate sensory, visual and motor development. Perfect Halloween baby toys as well, don’t you think?

Halloween Baby Outfit / Babygrow / Onesie / Vest
Ideal for your baby’s first Halloween outfit, your personalised designs are printed directly onto the softest 100% cotton. The unique designs can be completely tailored to your liking, or you can discuss a bespoke print for your chosen onesie or vest if you prefer.

Halloween Nightlight
An LED nightlight can help your baby sleep in peace without being scared of the dark. These lights come in lots of other colours and designs, and work with either a USB connection or 3 x AAA batteries, although a USB mains/plug connection will give a brighter light. Personally, I love the Halloween bat, but if you feel that’s a little too scary for your little one, I also adore the cat light as well.

The Best Halloween Gifts for Toddlers
“Baby” can refer to any child from birth to age 4 years old, encompassing newborns, infants, and toddlers as well. Some of the best Halloween gifts for toddlers are things they can use every day, like books, toys, and clothes. These gifts will help develop their imagination while also encouraging them to explore new things.
Halloween toys for toddlers
Trick or treat! This handmade sensory kit will provide hours of exciting child-led play for your little one, whilst developing their communication and language skills, fine motor skills, and stimulating their curiosity. Featuring play dough, rice, picture cards, stampers, pom-poms, beads, sticks, wool and more – what could your toddler create?

Halloween costume
Cute, spooky, and comfy, this cotton poncho and hat set has to be one of the best Halloween gifts for babies and toddlers. Super easy to put on, you can layer up your baby or toddler with warm clothes underneath when the weather is colder too.

Halloween books
I don’t believe it’s ever too early to introduce a child to the joy of growing their own food, so I love this gorgeous little interactive Halloween book about a pumpkin who was afraid of the dark. The book is made with special handmade paper embedded with real vegetable and herb seeds. When the paper is planted in a pot of soil, vegetables will grow from the paper, bringing the main character to life!

Halloween decorations
Even the very youngest children will appreciate some fun Halloween decorations in their bedroom. Like these fab Halloween 3D printed ghost planters, perfect for air cleaning succulents or air plants. Even better, they glow in the dark as well 🙂 And continuing with the same theme, this cute white ghosts window sticker pack is perfect for decorating the inside of your child’s bedroom window for a spooky but friendly feel.

Halloween treats
I mentioned earlier that Halloween was a time for sweets – in fact, Halloween is one of the biggest holidays for candy sales in the United States, exceeding $2.5 billion annually! And I think any toddler would love to receive this wonderful gift set through their letterbox, featuring some delicious Halloween treats to decorate, and fun spooktacular activities. Due to the small parts in the box, you would need to supervise very small children – all part of the Halloween fun though 🙂

And that completes my round up of my top 10 cute and affordable Halloween gifts for babies on Etsy*. All of them would make the perfect baby shower gift, or birthday gift for any babies born on Halloween as well. I was so hard pressed to choose my ultimate favourite but… I think I’m going to have to go for those adorable little bat teethers – which of my suggestions did you love the most? 🎃👻 🦇
