New Parents Now Have a Better Way to Celebrate Newborn Events

In Singapore, the tradition of celebrating a child’s Full Month (or Full Moon) and 100 Days are still generally practised by Chinese parents. Full Month is the celebration of a baby once they reach one month old, while the baby 100 Days celebration - as the name goes - takes place when they are 100 days old. Contrary to western countries, this full month event would sometimes be referred to as the baby shower in Asia.

During the celebration, parents would share boxes of symbolic treats normally comprising red eggs, ang ku kuehs, and glutinous rice with their extended families, friends, and other guests.
A later stage of the celebration, which is usually the gathering of guests in person to celebrate, now has to be planned differently than how it would be a year and a half ago due to the restrictions in place.

The latest update from the government (as of 21st July 2021) determined that the social gathering group size had to be further reduced from a maximum of 5 persons to a maximum of only 2 persons, further putting a pause on any events planned.

Putting aside the fact that the general public could not go out as freely as before, there are also concerns and worries about inviting guests over their residence to gather. To a certain extent, there would always be the possibility of the Covid cases rising again and the individuals not knowing whether they themselves or their guests would contribute to that. On top of that, identifying asymptomatic carriers among the crowd would be almost impossible.

Between the 12th and 20th of July 2021, Singapore witnessed a significant increase of Covid cases from 8 cases to 182 cases respectively.
The silver lining is that this situation makes the community more appreciative of such life events. Now that it has been over a year since Singapore started living in a pandemic, parents are adopting creative ways to celebrate their children’s Full Month.

For parents who are planning for their little one’s Full Month celebration, they can now rest easy as Celegift has done the legwork to take the load of planning completely off their shoulders.

Celegift - The One-Stop Destination for Celebration Favours

Celegift was created in the middle of the pandemic to make things much easier for parents who wish to celebrate their child’s Full Month or 100 Days.

As a one-stop destination for celebration favours, Celegift combines the two main elements of a Full Month event, i.e. distributing Full Month packages and gift-giving into a single platform.

Every comprehensive baby Full Month celebration package includes a gift registry for the parents, making them the first in Singapore to provide such services.

Parents can browse through thousands of baby items and maternity products, add them to their personalised wishlist, and their guests will be given access to it to make gift-giving both convenient and sustainable during these times.
“One particular aspect of celebration we rarely spoke about before is how the act of giving gifts, even though thoughtful, can directly or indirectly produce wastage in our household.

There are many instances of this. For a start, it is very possible for the parents to receive the same or similar items as presents from different parties. This might lead to one of them being unused, or all of them unused if the items are not suitable for them or their child, which brings us to another problem; when parents receive items that are not usable by their kids.

Understandably, choosing items for infants can be tricky because you’d have to know either their size, their skin sensitivity or allergies, or just the baby’s preference towards them. The guests also have to do research on the baby shower gifts Singapore parents actually need, which is not easy considering what works for certain parents and babies might not work for others.

That is why I believe that setting up a gift registry for your child is certainly an idea worth considering for all parents” shared Eva, Celegift founder.

Added Eva, they also added ang bao features onto the platform where friends and family can contribute to the child’s education or savings instead.

With Celegift, parents only have to go through a consultation process where they would be briefed on the options they have for the baby Full Month package, and how their gift registry would be handled. From there on, everything is taken over by Celegift and parents just have to wait while their celebration is being planned.

The celebration will first begin with Celegift delivering the Full Month treats with a personalised baby full month card to the parents’ guests. After the friends and families have purchased their selected items from the baby registry, all gifts will be packed in a huge hamper to be delivered to the parents - ensuring minimal contact between all parties and a smooth process all the way.

For the first 50 parents who engage their services, Celegift offers a discount of $270, free Full Month/100 Days planning, and a free E-Book on Newborn Full Month preparations.
