Pimp Your Crib: Build Your Own Deco*Mobile

Finding the perfect gift for a newborn is never simple, but the Deco*Mobile Build Your Own Mobile kit ($72) is a light and fun option if mommy and daddy are artsy types. The customized box comes with four little felt pets and one centerpiece. You pick from yellow, chocolate, baby blue or baby pink mobile bases, which are made to order.

If you don't want to play color coordinator, check out the equally beautiful Bird Parade Mobile ($68).
