There's nothing quite so great as a visually interesting set of flash cards; kids love 'em because they're fun, parents love 'em because they're educational. And now you can custom-design your own! Head on over to Goosie Cards to be guided through the process of designating both text and pictures (your own, or from their gallery) to make a personalized set of oversized cards for baby. Sets start at $28 (for 10 cards). 

Think of what a cool gift it would be to make your set of pictures at a baby shower (maybe a set of emotions card, with guests modeling happy, sad, surprised, etc.) and later present the parents with the cards!
