4 Reasons To Have A Baby Shower

Thinking about hosting a baby shower for yourself or a loved one soon? If you are undecided or unsure whether the mum-to-be even wants a baby shower, let us help. Check out our 4 Reasons To Have A Baby Shower and why.

Get together

How often do you get to see all your family and friends together in one room? Very rarely we imagine. That is why a baby shower is such a fab idea. Invite all your loved ones to this special occasion and catch up. Sounds perfect! This is a great time for everyone to catch up with one other in a relaxed and fun environment.

Play some fun games, eat some yummy food and create some great memories together. A fab idea would be to take lots of pictures and combine these into a collage after the shower. Combine them into a nice frame and gift to the lady herself. What a lovely keepsake for her to look back on time and time again!

Make the mum-to-be feel special

As the mum-to-be is nearing the end of her pregnancy she may start feeling tired or even overwhelmed with the preparation that needs to be done. The expectant mum may be suffering from baby fever and looking for a way to relax and have some fun. Hosting a baby shower just for her will help her to do just that. Having all her friends and family there with some tasty treats and a few gifts – what a lovely way to make her feel special. Just make sure you have enough of those tasty treats. The mum-to-be is eating for two after all!

Celebrate

We don’t normally need an excuse for a celebration but a baby shower is a good place to start. Having a baby is a very special time in anyone’s life. It is particularly special if this is the first baby. This needs to be celebrated! This baby shower doesn’t need to be a big party with tons of gifts. All you need is a venue, some snacks and some good friends. So don’t worry about spending a lot of money or inviting a lot of people.

A small get together will be just the thing to celebrate this special time in her life. During this baby shower the group can play fun games such as the blindfolded nappy changing game or dear baby. If it is in your time frame and budget, pick a fun baby shower theme for the occasion. We have some great tips on hosting a fab Ready To Pop theme here.

Before the baby arrives

A baby shower is also a great idea as the mum-to-be may not be attending another party or get together for a while after the baby is born. As we all know a new baby takes up a lot of our time. Therefore it is nice to organise this little celebration. The new mum won’t be seeing the inside of a party for a long time so give her a good send off! It may not be a wild night of dancing and drinking but it will be such a special celebration that she is sure to love!

So if you are thinking about whether or not to host a baby shower, keep this list in mind. Whether the shower is big or small, it is something that the mum-to-be will truly appreciate! And if you need any help simply drop us a line!
