The number of vegans in the UK is doubling every year and since over 40% of vegans are under 30 there is a also a growing number of babies born in to vegan families. You may think that choosing a baby gift which is suitable for vegans could be tricky but in fact it is not as complicated as you may fear and if you need to buy a vegan baby gift we have some great ideas for you.
The only thing that makes choosing a vegan baby gift confusing is that some paints and glues, and most plastics routinely contain animal products but because they are not foods the manufacturer does not have to declare this on their list of ingredients. Without this key information it can be difficult to know that you are buying a gift which will be appreciated.
Buying a gift for a new baby is supposed to be a joyous occasion and the last thing anyone wants is buy a gift which is not suitable so the best thing to do is to stick with materials that you know to be suitable for vegans.
