I have two DD and when they were young, they had no end of ear problems so my 'go-to-gift' is a blanket and matching hat. I liked being able to wrap them and have a matching hat. My all time favorite was a leopard flannel that had the hat, and the hat had little ears with pink inside. It was so cute that both of my DD wore it and so did DGD. Leopard may be passé, bit the idea is cute.
