How to Choose a Theme For Hosting a Baby Shower
Hosting a baby shower is definitely not an everyday occurrence. So here’s a few ideas on how to choose a theme when you’re planning to welcome a new baby!
There’s always expectant mothers around, and if you are expecting a baby yourself, you’re going to see expectant mothers everywhere. When you have a baby bump, it seems as though half the population is in the same situation.
But when you’ve been out of that category for a while, maybe even a grandma, like me, you don’t notice quite as many. That doesn’t mean you aren’t excited for them. And at times, you want to get in on the fun, too.
That’s where helping with a baby shower comes in. You can get that cozy pink-and-blue vibe back in your life for a little while.
How to Choose a Baby Shower Theme
There are too many ideas to make a comprehensive list of baby shower themes, so how do you settle on one?
To help you decide, here’s some questions to think about:
- Are you the only hostess? If there are several of you, the first step is planning a date to meet to do the planning.
- Before the planning session, ask the mother-to-be about some of her preferences. What theme is she using for the nursery? What is her chosen color scheme? Would she want an elaborate shower or is she a minimalist?
- Consider both the parents-to-be in your choice: What do they enjoy doing? Do they like to hike or camp? (Here’s a wilderness theme invitation.) Do they travel a lot? Use an airplane theme or maps and compasses and other travel objects. Do they garden or farm? Another source for theme ideas.
- A baby shower could be themed around the season the baby is born. For example, rainbows and sunshine, or the seashore, for summer, and earthy colors and pumpkins and falling leaves for autumn.
