24 Special Gifts Big Sisters Can Give To Their Little Sisters

The minute baby is born, big sister takes on a special role— as the most special big sis ever. Let’s award her for it (and hope she sees her new job as a reward!). This personalized book, with a coordinated medal, features Big Sister as the star of the show. This is a great gift for when bb is just born, perhaps even while you’re still in the hospital, so big sis knows she’ll always be *special*.

Every little girl needs her own baby to love and cuddle with. An older sister might need a baby girl to get used to and the younger sister needs her own baby  for role play. Madame Alexander’s dolls are a favorite for being soft, cuddly and sweet. This 14″ doll comes with a bottle, removable jammies and eyes that close, just like your little, when she’s getting put down for nap or bedtime.

There is going to be a lot of movie watching in your future, sis. Plug in Chromecast and access all of your streaming services (including Disney+) with the ease of a remote available in pink, blue or white. There’s also voice remote built in, so you can change the volume, the channel, or the show with Google Assistant. Not sure what to watch? Just ask “what should I watch?” or “best sci-fi movies.” If you still can’t decide, go with a slideshow of your favorite pics from Google Photo right on your tv. “Hey Google, show us pics from when bb was born.” We bet everyone will like that show.

This is for the big sis who needs some love while bb is getting extra attention. Her own puppy! But not the kind you need to walk (or feed, or clean, you get it). This stuffy is soft and cuddly with movement and sound. Give Puddles a pat and feel him move. He even yips like a real puppy without needing the 24/7 care a real pup does. You already have the baby for that kind of care.

There’s going to be a lot of baking, and we want it fun, pink and full of glitter, right?

Sisters celebrate each other, and each other’s birthdays. Mark the occasion with a constellation necklace that isn’t obvious, but means a lot to anyone who gets it. Buy one for the big sister or one for each sister in corresponding zodiac signs, it can be something special they share.

Craft time can be sophisticated between mom and big sis. There’s no reason you can’t create and wear something that’s special and beautiful. The Anasa DIY Necklace and Bracelet Kit comes with gold foil & rainbow Karatasi Beads plus all you need for a few necklaces and bracelets. This set alone helps to employ nearly 200 Akola women in Uganda. Sisterhood is global, that’s a lesson we can never start teaching early enough.

It feels like you’re going to need a whole new library with bb, right? Meet Scribd. This online library gives you access to thousands of ebooks, audiobooks, magazines and more. The children’s section is phenomenal, so big sis will never run out of classics or new titles to read with the baby.

The kids’ personalities will shine through, too, when they start using the stand to take selfies to share with each other, and you.

Having a new sister is a big deal, whether the first sis is 2 or 20. Dear Ava knows exactly how to mark the occasion.

Photos from the whole family are so important for the new bb, especially during Covid times when you can’t meet everyone in person. Skylight’s photo frame is unique in that anyone can email a pic and it appears right on the screen. No need to download, plug in a thumb drive, or any of the other nonsense. The minute something happens, a pic appears and it’s just like you’re with everyone as you’d want to be. Big sis can introduce baby to everyone in real time, and if they have a Skylight frame themselves, they can see bb minute by minute.

The best part is they can recreate the pieces over and over again since there’s no glue or adhesive involved, just lots of opportunities to use their imaginations.
