A Baby Gift for Babies Born December 7, 2009

If you know someone who had a baby on December 7, 2009, you couldn't find an easier baby gift...

Why?

Well... In one amazing moment, the world came together to sing about love, sweet love.

People from around the world sang “All You Need is Love” in a single voice on December 7, 2009 at 8:30am EST. The event is part of Starbuck's sponsored "Love Project".

The global sing-along was part of Starbucks continuing efforts to help fight AIDS in Africa. In just one year in partnership with (RED)™, Starbucks generated money equivalent to more than 7 million days of medicine to help those living with HIV in Africa.

To celebrate the birth of a friend's or relative's child, donate to an AIDS charity. If that doesn't appeal to you, perhaps you could get the baby's parents a gift certificate from Starbucks.

A little more creative however is a really fun kids CD album of Beatles songs. The album includes the previously mentioned "All You Need is Love" song and many other Beatles tunes.

Get the Beatles album and print out a little information about the "Love Project" and put it with a gift card. That's it. An easy, inexpensive and thoughtful gift.

Actually, you can't go wrong with any of the above the gifts. Nobody hates the Beatles, do they? Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever heard anybody say they don't like the Beatles. If facebook existed in the 60's, can you imagine the Beatles' Fan page? You'd probably get a lot of screaming teenage girls writing in all caps: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PAUL I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVEEEE YOUUU!!!

OK. December 8 will follow in tomorrow's blog.
