What about Baby Shower Ideas?

A baby shower is now an extremely popular event to plan and plenty of people all over the UK are doing so. But if you’ve never planned a baby shower before you may not know what baby shower ideas you should think about. To make things easier for you we have put together the top 4 things that you should think about when planning a baby shower for the mum-to-be.

Baby Shower at Home or Away

First thing you need to decide is whether you’re having the baby shower at home or away. This could be at a restaurant, a function room or even a café if there are only a few of you.

Most of the time, people have baby showers at home. And we have a few things that you can think about for how to plan a baby shower at home here.

Baby Shower Games & Activities

You will want to keep your guests busy, and make some memories for the mum-to-be. And a good way to do this would be with some baby shower games & activities.

Don’t worry though, we have done all the research for you so you can see what the best baby shower activities & baby shower games to include are.

Baby Shower Gifts

Although you may already have some ideas, baby shower gifts are always part of the baby shower that everyone gets involved with.

It’s the time where you can gift the mum-to-be with some essentials or keepsakes for the baby that she may not have thought about. For some ideas check out our list of what are the best baby shower gifts.

Baby Shower Decorations

There is no way you’re going to be at a baby shower and not take any photographs. Which is why adding some baby shower decorations is a great idea.

Things like balloons and photo props are both easy additions that will transform the event into something all your guests will love. We have put together a list of baby shower decorations & accessory ideas that you can use.
