Trying hard in finding some extra special baby shower ideas?
Easy, easy.
Everything on this planet can be done in a very simple way - So are your baby showers.
However,
if you're pulling your hair out as how to turn your baby shower into a
really special and exciting celebration for the soon-to-be-parents,
follow my 3 golden tips below.
You will soon find out that planning a baby shower is just a snap and full of fun.
Golden Tip 1: Let Your Imagination Flow
Do
you have the desire for something a little more elaborate and unique?
If the answer is yes, you may need a few baby shower ideas' triggers.
I
can't imagine a baby shower without energy and creativities. If, for
any reason, you are not able to come up with any creative ideas, I would
suggest you to think out the box.
My suggestion is that don't
keep your imagination only stay with the topic of baby shower. Think
big and thing something could create a special time that will live in
everyone's memories for years to come.
I'm not saying that you
should turn your Shower into a cover story on the next issue of
Parenting or American Baby. If you can, congratulations!
But
for many of our people, we're all surrounded by all kinds of free
information about love, family, and generations on TV, magazines,
newspaper, and outdoor advertisements. Speak them with your friends and
families, and see if they can come up with some special baby shower
ideas.
For example, you can have a celebration of the entire
family and their heritage especially with the soon-to-be-grandparents.
You can even be creative to include some of your close friends in your
guest list, and play games include friends sharing trivia about their
own families, like famous relatives, traditions, or a funny family
story.
Golden Tip 2: Learn from Other Party Experiences.
As
someone once said, "The best way to have a great idea is to have a lot
of good ideas." It works the same way to find unique baby shower ideas.
Lots
of baby shower hostesses don't realize that the most creative baby
shower ideas lie somewhere deep in their mind. They just don't know it.
I
mean, we've all spent hours coming up with birthday parties, family
reunions, weddings, and even holidays like Halloween and Christmas. Once
the party is over, however, all that energy and all those ideas usually
just dwindle away.
Think about this: If you can get out the
party photos somehow find their way into a forgotten folder on your
computer's hard drive or hidden inside a photo album somewhere, you can
simply put an end to all the wasting of your time.
Golden Tip 3: If You Can, Throw A Coed Baby Shower and Assign A Male Co-host.
Not
only celebrities in L.A tend to ahead of the curve when it come to
trends, a famous baby site also reports that nearly half of baby showers
now are coed parties.
Especially with busy soon-to-be-Moms, like
business owner, company executives, and celebrities, there is often a
Mr. Mom at home who expects to fully participate in the baby shower.
And of course, their male buddies.
Beside, dad-to-be plays a very
big role during the pregnancy and in the new baby's life, why should
you get the new mom to celebrate on her own?
Of course, hosting a
coed baby shower is more than just putting the male guests on the
inviting list. Some shower hostesses even worry that guys would not
attend such a party where participants play games such as
Round-the-Tummy.
If you could not stand the thought of seeing their bored unhappy faces, my suggestion is to ask one of them to give you a hand.
In
fact, the male co-host can provide big help from choosing the stylish
color invitation, to picking up the dad-friendly baby shower ideas and
games, and guiding the men to check gift registry as they often don't
know what to buy for the baby-to-come.
The best co-host
candidate: the soon-to-be-grandpa or any male guest who has the
experiences of baby shower or the pregnancy process.
