Get simple Baby Shower Planning Tips you can use today!
Are you expecting a little bundle of joy this Spring? Two of my amazing contributors are pregnant - Doree is having a boy this Spring, and Megan is having a girl this Summer. This whole week here on Juggling Act Mama, we're celebrating and planning for the arrival of babies! Not only am excited for my two dear friends, but two of my sisters are having babies just 2-weeks apart this Spring! Planning for baby has got to include a fabulous shower to pamper the mom-to-be, don't you think?
Here are a few of my baby shower planning tips:
1. Keep it Short
Let's face it, no one has enough time these days, and spending hours at a baby shower can get old fast. Print the start and end time on your invitation so there's no guessing when the party is over. Mom-to-be needs her rest, so 2-3 hours is more than enough time for an enjoyable baby shower.
2. Plan a Theme - but Keep it Simple
Use your invitation to convey a theme and ask guests to participate. It could be as simple as asking everyone to bring a book for baby with a note inside instead of a card, or for a gender reveal, ask everyone to wear pink or blue to signify their guess.
3. Have Fun!
Games can be fun, but be sure your mom-to-be is into that sort of thing. Shy moms might not want you measuring and guessing her girth, so plan around her personality and preferences. If you're not sure, have other activities planned like guessing the number of jelly beans in a baby bottle, or have guests write their best baby advice on a note card and read them out loud.
