potatocake
I am throwing a baby shower April 10th in Ohio. Im trying to think of a theme that would be totally different and game ideas that's different. She is having a boy. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Answer
Themes: Stars and Moons, Safari Animals, Rubber Duckies, Clothesline with Diapers and Onesies, Sports Theme, Teddy Bears, Garden Bugs, Fairytale, Springtime Flowers, Mod Mom, Rainforest, Umbrellas, Storybooks, Lambs and Ivy, Circus, Nursery Rhymes.
Games:
Baby Shower Bodysuit Decorating
Bodysuits are one thing the new parents will need lots of!! A great activity is to have guests at the baby shower decorate bodysuits!! Purchase enough bodysuits and fabric paint for each guest attending and set up the "creation station" in a location that will not be needed during the rest of the shower!! (This will allow the bodysuits
to dry without them having to be moved.) When the shower is over...offer to wash the custom bodysuits for the new parents, making sure to follow the directions on the fabric paint bottles. For large baby showers....purchase a wide range of sizes so these creations will be a part of baby's first full year!
Suggestion: Cover the table being used with a plastic drop cloth covered with an
old tablecloth that is no longer needed (the one with gravy stains on it from last
Thanksgiving??). 5 Tubes of 1.25oz Colored Fabric Paint should be enough to
decorate 10 Bodysuits (when used sparringly).

Letters to The Baby
As the guests walk to the table (or designated location)where the gifts are being placed.....have a special station set up on the side of the gift table. At this station have cute baby themed stationary laid out with some nice pens. Beside the stationary have a card out asking each guest to take a few moments to write a note to the new baby. When the guests have finished writing their notes, have a tray or basket provided to place them in. Once all the guests have written their notes....the hostess can then choose one or two, at random, to be chosen for a prize (this could be your shower's door prize). When the shower is over these notes can be placed in a scrapbook or album to be enjoyed by the parents now and by the baby years down the road. Sweet and sentimental and sure to be treasured by the new family!!!
Suggestion: I would advise that these notes not be read in front of the crowd....your guests may not want their letters shared aloud for all to hear. These are their special words to baby and the new parents so allow these words to be just for them!!

Guess the Guest
Have each guest send you a copy of their baby photo prior to the baby shower. Display the photos in a Baby photo album or on a nicely decorated piece of poster board. Number them and have the guests try to guess which guest is which baby. This is a great way for people to get to know each other at the shower. A great way to get the party started!

Baby Birth Day and Time Wager
Have each of your guests throw in a set amount of money to wager on the day and time baby will be born. Record those figures to reference on the big day! You may even want to take email addresses and email everyone their pick after the shower. When the big day arrives send the new mommy flowers or a diaper wreath with half the collected money (the flowers would be from the entire group) and the other half could be used to purchase a gift certificate for the winner. You could even have the new parents send the gift certificate when they mail the announcements and let the baby shower guests know who won!
Themes: Stars and Moons, Safari Animals, Rubber Duckies, Clothesline with Diapers and Onesies, Sports Theme, Teddy Bears, Garden Bugs, Fairytale, Springtime Flowers, Mod Mom, Rainforest, Umbrellas, Storybooks, Lambs and Ivy, Circus, Nursery Rhymes.
