10 Adorable Apple-Themed Baby Accessories

Congratulations, it’s a Mac! If you want to ensure your offspring stay on the Apple side of the technology tracks, then start ‘em young while they are still highly impressionable.

We’ve scoured the web for Apple-themed baby bits and bobs that will keep your new bundle of joy — or someone else’s, if you’re a proud uncle/aunt/godparent — Cupertino-clad.

So, go for it while they can’t answer back, and grab all the cute fan-baby snaps you can. Remember, there’s plenty of time to have that talk (the one about alternative operating systems) once they hit their teens.


1. iPhone Onesie


iPopMyBaby has taken the iPhone’s now-classic home screen icons and replaced them with designs more relevant to the infant lifestyle — poop, crawl, burp, drool and pee, are among the new “apps.”

Cost: Varies


2. Mac Genius Bib


This bib projects a future of greatness for your little one, though as junior is spitting up pureed fruit on said garment and wiping it in his hair, the “genius” part might not be quite so apparent. Do grab the camera though.

Cost: $12


3. Daddy and Me Onesie


This onesie makes a knowing nod to how much tech changes from generation to generation. What’s next we wonder? Musical brain implants?

Cost: $24


4. Vinyl Mac Desktop


So cool we’re actually considering getting a set to use as grown-up place mats, this Mac-themed vinyl will sit on baby’s high chair and get the little guy or gal used to having a chiclet keyboard. Your baby won’t be the one at the nursery who can’t find the command key, that’s for sure.

Cost: 12 Euros (approx $15)


5. Mac and Cheese Twinset


Designed for maximum cute effect when worn by twins, this crafty two-piece set would be no less welcome in any Apple family home, although we can’t help thinking “cheese” might be left in a closet a little more often than the “mac.”

Cost: $38


6. iPod Seek and Find Bean Bag


This isn’t strictly a baby toy, owing to the potential choking hazard and other such parental concerns, but it would look super-cute on a nursery shelf until baby is old enough to get hands-on.

Cost: $12.99


7. iBaby Onesie


Perhaps the most subtle onesie we’ve selected, the word “iBaby” will still resonate with Apple fans and the tech-savvy public alike, leaving no doubt about your toddler’s allegiance to “the Steves.”

Cost: $20


8. Apple Bucket Hat


Want your little one to be spreading the word of Apple while keeping the sun off her face? Of course you do! This cotton-brushed twill headwear will do the trick — available in white, pink and blue.

Cost: $14.95


9. Loud and Proud Onesie


In our experience with “humans-in-training,” the volume level does have a tendency to reach “11″ from time to time. This “Loud and Proud” outfit’s depiction of the Mac volume icon on full blast is most appropriate.

Cost: $18


10. Wooden iPhone


Give baby his own iPhone before he starts looking admiringly at any AndroidAndroidAndroid products. This wooden replica is just the thing for the garbled baby-equivalent of “buy, buy, sell, sell” on the way out to the park.

Cost: $9.75
