baby boy?

I'm looking for a good project to make for a baby boy, something unique-ish? They've already got a few diaper cakes given to them, else I'd do that.

For girls I'm going to be doing a pleated skirt but I just can't think of something to do for a boy...

Maybe make a mobile or textile decoration for the babies room, or make a pair of baby shoes/booties from fabric.

If you need to find a good boyish fabric, try cartoony dinosaurs or something with race cars... or maybe something the new parents are into.

Those remind me of something I saw in a 1993 Singer sewing book... Basically it was a baby's bath towel with a terrycloth hood and paws made to look like an animal. It looked super easy to make, and I would imagine that baby bath supplies aren't a gift that everyone thinks of!
