Although your friend’s baby can’t start playing with this toy until he/she gets older, you should still consider getting it for the baby shower. It’s always good to give toys that foster curiosity and inspire kids to become scientists, doctors, engineers, etc. Gifts like this science set are great for encouragement and re-examining gender roles. Who says girls can’t be scientists or engineers?

Major Care is a new, virtual doula agency that uniquely matches mothers with a dedicated doula who will provide individualized support 24/7. Major Care is the only personalized, giftable service and is 1/4 of the cost of in-person doula care. For the cost of a latte a day, mothers can text questions and consult with specialists. According to the CDC, although 15% of mothers experience postpartum mood disorders, US insurance does not include postpartum coverage. Studies also show that the use of a doula provides better birth and postpartum outcomes. Give the gift that will truly make a difference!
