Urban hipster friends of mine had a baby boy about a month ago.  They're indie kids, anglophiles, and rather well off financially.  Everything has been purchased off of the registry, so that's no real help.

I really want to get them a little something, but have no idea what.

My first idea was an infant-sized England soccer jersey, but can't find one  (I'd order 2 if I could find 'em!!)  
I could do a GC to baby gap or something, but that doesn't really excite me.  Babystyle is a little better, but still not great.

Any suggestions for something cool, yet kinda useful that they might not have?  I also thought about a taggie blanket, but bet they have one......

How about some cool children's CD's?
Or a gift certificate to Modernseed.com?

Smithsonian's Folkways line has a very cool collection for kids.

And I'm a big fan of this baby tee.

The kid's section of Uncommon Goods usually has some neat stuff. I think the pee-pee teepee is funny, but I don't know how useful it would be. :)

Ooho! I like that CD! May have to pick one up for myself, too.

If you buy it, I should probably point out that Amazon has it for cheaper than the Smithsonian site.

Robeez!

I got this same pair for a great friend of mine whose husband is a big soccer fan.

Oh yeah - anything from www.wrybaby.com would be good too!

One of my LJ friends is a great artist...I have no idea if your friends would be interested in these, but you might (I know I want them)...on her website she sells a "nerd baby alphabet" that is SUPER cute. Her LJ name is [livejournal.com profile] boogaloo, and here's the link to her website that has the nerd baby alphabet.
