cornerstork baby giftsThe purpose of The Corner Stork is simple: provide the warmth and handpicked selection of a corner store, plus the convenience of an online store. Whether you’re looking shopping for a baby shower, new mama gift or a birthday present The Corner Stork has a great selection of unique and affordable gifts.

About Corner Stork

We carefully handpicked the best of bath toys to room decor, personalized gifts to clothing, searching out the best vendors all around the world. Then we road-tested these products on our own babies. We also made sure that the price you pay here is the absolutely the most competitive.

To get an idea of the quality of gifts at The Corner Stork, we received one of the best sellers – the “Monkey Magoo and Blankie Too!” gift set. Monkey Magoo is a sweet plush monkey cuddling a banana containing an embroidered blanket. After receiving the set and checking it out, I have to say the biggest surprise is the price tag – it’s only $28. Magoo the plush monkey is soft and has velcro on his hands and feet so he can cuddle a bedpost or your little one. The blanket is a good size, very soft and features an embroidered monkey. And, I love that you can get the blanket personalized (for an additional fee).

Unique Baby Gifts

The selection of gifts at The Corner Stork is really incredible. There’s literally something for every baby shower theme, to match every nursery decor and for boys, girls and even twins. corner stork sweet peaYou can find gift suggestions by price, recipient and occasion. There’s even a cool gift finder program on the home page. Many of the gifts are gift sets (like Magoo) so you can feel like you’re giving a really generous gift because there are multiple useful things without spending a fortune.

To Buy or Not to Buy

To Buy… The Corner Stork has a great selection of gifts I’ve not seen anywhere else. And they are genuinely affordable! I love the gifts sets – buy one thing and you’re set.

Or Not to Buy… Because in a gift set like Magoo the Monkey you are paying for multiple things that you may not need. If you’re looking to focus on just one gift, like a luxurious blanket, check those out rather than one of the gift sets.

Shop! If you’re looking for unique baby gifts, check out The Corner Stork Baby Gifts for lots of unique and adorable ideas at affordable prices.

    So darn cute! My brother and SIL are planning on going with a jungle theme room and this little guy would make a great gift to take to the hospital. Thanks for sharing!

    I was really dissatisfied with corner stork’s customer service. One of the three items I ordered as a gift for my sister’s new baby was backordered. I contacted the company and asked them to ship the items that were in stock separately, which they confirmed they would do via email. Then they never shipped the items. When I found out months later that my sister never received the gift, and I called to inquire about the items not being shipped, the customer service rep was very unhelpful. I ended up canceling my order. What good is having great selection if the person never gets the gift??

    @kate: it is very nice that you gave a link and a great review for the Corner Stork. They look like a great store for unique items. I would have never seen the store if you hadn’t linked them here.

    I like your choice of Magoo the Monkey – he looks adorable and would likely bring tons of oohs and ahhs at a baby shower. Is the blanket soft and plush?

    I am really upset with the customer service and the service they provide. I ordered baby favors from them which they were supposed to be shipped for my sis’s baby shower. Never gotten them, got into argument with a rep. The day before the baby shower i had to look for a store to buy the bs favors. The person was really nasty eventually hanged up on me. I will never ever buy anything from the Corner Stork.
