Baby’s First Christmas Golf Gifts for Golf-Loving Families

You’ve found something for the parents. Now there’s a very small person on your Christmas list, and you’d like to give them something besides another pair of pajamas.

If golf is part of the family, a little onesie polo or a shirt to match Dad makes sense. For a first Christmas golf gift without the clothing-size guesswork, look at a blanket or crochet stuffed animal.

Before you choose, think about when they’ll use it. Are you picturing baby wearing it at Christmas lunch, or buying a bigger size for next spring? That answer will help you choose the size.

This guide focuses on a baby’s first Christmas. If you’re also shopping for older children and adults, our Christmas golf gift guide for the whole family covers those ideas, too.

Will Baby Wear It at Christmas or Later?

A onesie polo can be the whole present. If you’d like to add something, a hat or blanket gives you a few ways to put a gift together.

Here are three ways to choose:

  • Something to wear at Christmas: Choose a size for December and think about the family’s holiday plans.
  • Something for the months ahead: Ask the parents which size they expect to need next.
  • Something without clothing sizes: Consider a golf blanket, muslin swaddle, or crochet animal.

If you’re a grandparent buying from a distance, ask about sizing and keep the print a surprise.

A Baby Golf Onesie Polo for Christmas Day

A Little Chipper Golf onesie polo gives you a collared outfit with a snap closure underneath. Pair it with soft pants from the baby’s drawer, and you have something ready for lunch with the grandparents or a family photo at home.

The baby sizes listed in the collection run from 0–3 months through 18–24 months. Check the specific product’s size information and availability before you order.

Clubhouse Classic With Cream or Navy Pants

The Clubhouse Classic Onesie Polo has green and white stripes. For Christmas, try it with cream or navy pants and a cardigan the baby already has.

Green stripes work with holiday colors. The polo can go back into the everyday clothes drawer after Christmas, too.

Tees & Greens for a Little Golf Outfit

Tees & Greens has putting flags and crossed golf clubs on a light background. The little flags and clubs make the golf theme easy to see, even in the baby sizes.

A baby golf hat is an option to go with it. Check the hat’s size guidance separately from the onesie polo.

Matching Dad and Baby Polos for Their First Christmas Together

For a dad celebrating his first Christmas with baby, wrap his polo first, then give him the tiny matching one. You can also put the two shirts together in a box so he sees the pair as soon as he opens it.

Start with a print he would normally wear. Blue Skies has blue and white stripes, with a matching baby onesie polo. Green-striped Clubhouse Classic and the Tees & Greens golf print also have Dad and baby versions.

Check Dad’s usual polo size against the product’s sizing information. Add his shirt and baby’s onesie polo to your cart separately, choosing the same print for each.

Our matching father and son golf outfit guide shows three print combinations and more ways to put the outfits together. Daughters can match Dad in these styles, too.

Golf Gifts When You Don’t Know the Baby’s Clothing Size

Sometimes the answer to “What size is baby wearing?” changes between adding to cart and checkout. A blanket or swaddle saves you from trying to predict the next growth spurt.

The Golf-Inspired Minky Blanket

The Golf-Inspired Minky Blanket measures 35 by 43 inches. It has a neutral golf print on one side and light green minky backing on the other.

Fold it into a gift box with the green backing showing, or give it with a little golf outfit. It’s also an option for grandparents sending a gift when they haven’t seen baby’s latest growth spurt.

The Golf Themed Baby Muslin Swaddle

The Golf Themed Baby Muslin Swaddle is a lighter fabric option, made with a 70% bamboo and 30% cotton muslin blend. It measures 47 by 43 inches.

It folds down neatly for a gift bag. Give it on its own, or add it to a present you’re already putting together for the new parents.

A Crochet Golf Animal to Mark Their First Christmas

Tee the Tiger and Sandy the Bunny are hand-crocheted golf stuffed animals. Both use cotton yarn with polyester stuffing and are approximately 9.8 inches tall.

Choose the animal you like best and tuck a note into the gift bag. You could write baby’s name, the year, and a few words about looking forward to teaching them the game someday. Sign it so the parents have a record of who gave it.

How to Choose the Right Size for Christmas

A baby born in November and a baby born in January can both be celebrating their first Christmas. They’ll need very different sizes.

Ask What Fits Now

Ask the parents what size baby is currently wearing and whether that size still has room. Compare the answer with the sizing information for the onesie polo you’re considering.

If you’re shopping in October or November, include the date you expect the outfit to be worn. “What size would you choose for Christmas lunch?” is more useful than asking only how old the baby is.

Buying a Bigger Size for Later

If you buy a larger size, tell the parents you chose it for later. “For your spring trip with Dad” is enough.

That lets the parents put it away with the next-size clothes instead of trying to make it fit for Christmas lunch.

Put Together a Small First Christmas Gift Box

If you’re giving a onesie polo, tell the parents why you chose that print. Maybe it’s Grandpa’s favorite color or reminds you of the course where the family plays.

With matching polos, you could include an invitation for lunch with the grandparents or a plan to take a family photo. That gives everyone a day to look forward to wearing them.

For a gift box, try a onesie polo with a hat, or a blanket with Tee the Tiger. These are suggested pairings of individual products, so add each item to your order separately.

Before checkout, confirm the sizes, delivery address, and current shipping information. Use the store’s current delivery guidance rather than assuming a holiday arrival date.

Baby’s First Christmas Golf Gift Questions

What Is a Good First Christmas Gift for a Baby With Golf-Loving Parents?

A baby golf onesie polo is a straightforward choice when you know the size. A matching Dad polo makes it a gift for both of them. If you don’t know the clothing size, consider a golf blanket, muslin swaddle, or crochet animal.

Can a Baby Wear a Golf Polo as a Christmas Outfit?

Yes. Style a baby onesie polo with pants and an appropriate layer from their wardrobe. Green-striped Clubhouse Classic is one option for holiday colors, while Blue Skies and Tees & Greens work if those are the prints the family prefers.

Should I Buy a Newborn Size for a First Christmas Gift?

Check the baby’s current size and the product’s fit information first. A first Christmas gift may be for a newborn or a baby several months old, so choose for the individual child and when the gift will be used.

Pick Something for Their First Christmas Together

Choose the print you like, check baby’s size, and decide whether you’d like to add Dad’s shirt. A onesie polo is a lovely gift on its own; matching the two gives them something to wear together for their first Christmas.
