Baby Shower Planner

Baby Shower Themes

  • Theme by gender: Pink or Blue
  • Baby items: bottles, pacifiers, diapers, safety pins, storks, booties, baby carriages, cribs, etc.
  • Baby animals, Noah's Ark
  • Cartoon characters: Winnie the Pooh, Beatrix Potter, Baby Mickey/Minnie Mouse
  • Alphabet or Numbers
  • Outdoor barbecue
  • Tropical: Hawaiian Luau
  • Time of day - Everyone invited is given a time of day and should bring a gift for the baby or mom that pertains to that time of the day (i.e. nighttime-pajamas, morning-bottles or items for feeding)
  • Favorite children's story - Each guest should bring their favorite book as a child and will give it to the new mom to start the baby's library

Baby Shower Decorating Ideas

  • Little pacifiers made out of lifesavers and jellybeans
  • Baby clothes (booties, shirts, caps, etc.) clothespinned to a ribbon that's hung around the room; gifts can be added to the line
  • Salt and pepper shakers in booties
  • Balloons in colors that go with the theme
  • Crepe paper and table cloths
  • Decorate a scrapbook or blank journal for each guest to write a message for the new parents and baby

I don't know so much about the suggestions above, but my favorite thing is for the guests to bring a package of diapers. I'm having a baby shower in October, and on the invitations we put for every package of diapers you bring your name will be entered into the drawing. Some people are very competitive and will bring more then 1 package, but most will bring 1. Everybody wants to win something so if all they have to do is bring a pack of diapers at a chance to win most of them will. This is in addition to the gift they bring. They get a chance at a nice gift and you get alot of diapers to start out with, and you will need them.
