Best Cow Gifts

Cows are just as cute in pastel colors. I adore this multi-colored, cottage cow plush toy which is made from soft shades of blue, pink and orange. She comes complete with some pretty machine embroidery detail and is suitable for children from 18 months of age. She is very sweet and would make a wonderful gift for a young child.

Melissa and Doug make great quality toys and we're big fans in this house. Their black and white soft 'checkers' cow is udderly gorgeous. This is a small, standing stuffed cow and look at his wonderful little face - he looks like he's smiling and happy. One customer purchased this for his wife who is a big cow fan; she loves it so much that it snuggles up to her at night-time. Plush cow toys are not just for kids.

Or how about the sitting Aurora stuffed cow? This is super soft and cuddly according to customers who've already bought him. Because this cow can sit up on his own, one mom said he's great for kid's tea parties. I love that idea.

I really don't think you can go wrong with a Fisher-Price Little People Farm. This is a hugely popular toy which has been around for many years but is of course updated and improved on to keep it fun and relevant for each current set of kids who'll be playing with it. I heartily recommend this toy. My own daughter had one and adored it. It's suitable from around 12 months and up. We purchased ours when my little girl was around 18 months old and this was the right age.

The farm or barn is colorful, very sturdily made, the right size for little hands and it makes some fantastic noises which kids love and they have fun finding where all the noises are and how to activate them! The little animals that come with this set are the perfect size for toddler hands to grab - and yes they will chew them too. It brings back such great memories for us and I know it's a great cow themed toy.

How about a cow Wheely Bug ride-on toy? This is a lovely wooden wheeled toy that kids can sit on to moo-ve themselves around. It's low to the ground so not far for your little one to fall if they do slip off and it has an easy to hold handlebar at the front. These are so cute and customers just love them - you can read all the amazing reviews when you look at the cow wheely bug toy.

This small cow themed table lamp would make a brilliant gift for someone who loves cows. It's unusual, fun and unique and will look good in a bedroom, nursery, hallway or family room. The main body of the lamp features a ceramic cow and it has a fabric lampshade decorated with a black and white cow hide pattern.

For a more traditional figurine, here's a small, standing brass cow statue which will look good on display. If your cow collector has a display case or unit to feature their bovine friends, then this brass piece would look great in there too. This is a handmade brass sculpture fashioned by metal craftsmen from North India.

For real cow style chic in a home, what about a natural cowhide rug? Just to make it clear, cows are not killed for their skins or cowhide. Cowhide rugs are a by-product of the cow meat industry - so if you're happy to eat cow meat then you should have no problem with the idea of a cow skin or cowhide either. Obviously not the thing to buy as a gift for vegetarians or vegans.

Because the cowhide rugs are natural products, they each have different markings and no two are exactly the same. They look great as accent pieces on wooden or hard floor surfaces and they would also be a lovely, extra cosy addition for a cream, white or black plush carpet.

How apt is a cow creamer? A wonderful porcelain cow which can be used to serve milk or cream for coffee or tea. This makes a lovely kitchen addition for any Texas rancher or cow collector. And, though it looks fragile, it's actually safe to use in ovens, microwaves, freezers and dishwashers which makes for a pretty and practical gift.

My favorite cow kitchen item is the maple cutting or chopping board. This is a totally novel yet unique gift which would look wonderful in a country style kitchen. Customers who've already purchased this cutting board say that it's durable, great quality and cute. You can use it as a board or just for decoration - either way it's a great addition to a kitchen.

We gave up on electric kettles years ago - they're just cheap plastic and don't last. We found we were having to buy one every 1-2 years due to breakages or leaks so we gave up and purchased a whistling tea kettle for the stove instead.

We've had our enamel coated kettle for several years and love waiting for it to whistle which brings back some great childhood memories. This cow kettle is really cute. What a great looking kettle which you can use or display as novelty decoration.

Cows and farm animals in general make cute nursery decor for girls and boys. It's great to start babies off early learning about different animals. Farm animals are often featured on TV or in books and activity toys for kids - so it's something that babies will quickly become familiar with and fall in love with too.

Babies tend to spend a lot of time in cribs while they're so young and need lots of sleep. It's lovely to provide interesting objects like musical mobiles which they can watch and engage with whilst awake and which can also be used to help soothe babies to sleep too. This cute musical mobile comes with 4 plush farm animals: a cow, pig, sheep and horse. The cow's even wearing a cute little bell detail.

RoomMates make lots of great peel and stick wall decals or stickers which you can quickly decorate a nursery with to create the exact theme you want. This one comes with flowers, trees, a pond and lots of cute farm animals in soft color shades.

There are loads of farm animal crib sets but not many that just feature cows. I found one which is a beautiful 4 piece Moo Cow Crib Set. It comes complete with all the crib basics for a nursery: quilt, bumper, sheet and dust ruffle. It has great reviews and how's this for a rating - one customer says she's still loving the cow crib set a whole year and a half later and that it looks brand new! You can't get a better review than that.
