Fabulous Baby Showers Made Easy!
It is easy to get overwhelmed with all the things that go into baby showers. Just break it up into small parts and start early and your shower will go smoothly. Follow this guide for great baby showers!
Start by consulting with the mother-to-be. Ask her if she has a theme she would like, such as a color or character based on the baby’s nursery décor. Find out where she is registered and everyone to invite, as well as their addresses and emails. Next you can go ahead with the invitations. See what the store has available, make your own, or use ecards.
Send these out one month in advance to let guests prepare. Include a map, RSVP and registry information on the invitations. Decide what games you will have at the party. Baby shower madlibs, pin the diaper on the baby, and baby names scramble are all fun, easy ways to go.
If you have prizes for the winners, plan on buying those as well. Pick what appetizers and drinks you will have, and order or make the cake. Plan what order the shower will go in, such as toasts and congratulations, games, presents, and finally, food and cake. Plan on small favors, like pink and blue candies, or candles with a ribbon tied around them, for the guests at the end of the shower. Follow these easy guidelines and you are on your way to wonderful baby showers!
