This theme will be used on everything from invites and d\u00e9cor to favors and thank you tags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Browse our gallery for <a href=\"\/ideas\/galleries\/baby-shower\">adorable baby-themed templates<\/a> or find inspiration online for other party themes that can be adapted to a baby shower.

A good place to start is with a baby shower planning checklist to keep track of all your tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.babylist.com\/hello-baby\/baby-shower-checklist\">to-do list or timeline<\/a> laying out everything that needs to get done and when it should be completed. Include things like sending out invitations, deciding on a menu, and assembling favors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can even organize ideas or inspiration you find online by creating a Pinterest board.

This allows your guests to mingle or participate in games and activities as they nibble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A buffet-style table setting works best for easy access to a variety of food. Visual appeal is also important, so consider an appetizing charcuterie board or grazing table. And you can never go wrong with a yummy dessert table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to label each dish so guests know what they\u2019re eating. Write the names of food on toothpick flags or print customized Avery tags and place cards using your color scheme to accent your table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.avery.com\/f_auto,q_auto,c_scale,w_600\/web\/blog\/7-easy-tips-for-planning-a-memorable-baby-shower-2\" alt=\"Two images showing different baby shower ideas.

Avoid games that are boring or wasteful and go with entertaining, low-pressure activities that are also useful for the parents-to-be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some examples of fun and practical baby shower games and activities:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Alphabet book activity:<\/strong> Have guests create a custom alphabet book for the little one. All you need are sheets of paper with each letter of the alphabet on top, color pencils or markers, <a href=\"\/products\/sheetprotectors\/75540\">sheet protectors<\/a> and a <a href=\"\/products\/folderpockets\/47781\">report cover<\/a> to hold the book pages together.<\/li><li><strong>Diaper thoughts activity<\/strong>: Provide <a href=\"\/products\/markers\/24800\">markers<\/a> for guests to write out words of wisdom, parenting advice or a funny message on the outside of a diaper for the new parents to read during those late night diaper changes.<\/li><li><strong>Onesie decorating game:<\/strong> With the expecting parents out of the room, have guests decorate onesies with non-toxic fabric paint. When done, ask the parents to pick their first, second and third favorite. Winners get prizes, while the baby gets new custom outfits<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As for game prizes, consider gifting winners with a cute basket of small goodies like a mini spa kit, a manicure set, or travel-sized fragrances. <a href=\"\/blog\/how-to-create-and-print-personalized-gift-tags\/\">Create your own personalized gift tags<\/a> to finish off the gift baskets and thank guests for playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5) Add personal touches throughout the baby shower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Baby showers are typically thrown by a family member, close friend, or co-worker. As a host, you want to keep the expecting parents in mind when planning a baby shower. What would they enjoy having at the celebration?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim is to surround the soon-to-be-parents with love and support in order to prepare for their new arrival. A good way to do this is by including some of their personal preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honor the parents-to-be by serving some favorite foods, using a favorite color in the color scheme, or adding a favorite flower to the d\u00e9cor. You can also use their baby pictures as decorations throughout the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.avery.com\/f_auto,q_auto,c_scale,w_600\/web\/blog\/7-easy-tips-for-planning-a-memorable-baby-shower-3\" alt=\"Two images side by side.

Ask guests to share some helpful advice or motivating messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up a guestbook signing area with everything laid out and ready to go. Make sure to provide <a href=\"\/category\/products\/writing-instruments\/\">writing instruments<\/a> like pens, markers, highlighters, and fun stickers to decorate the pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For extra fun, make it a photo guestbook by providing an instant camera for guests to take photos they can add to the book. Don\u2019t forget the extra camera batteries, film, <a href=\"\/products\/gluesticks\/00164\">glue sticks<\/a>, tape, and a fun background or props.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7) Thank your guests with favors they\u2019ll love<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Favors are a great way to thank guests for coming and celebrating the special day. Avoid giving out favors guests won\u2019t need or want and instead give them something they\u2019ll enjoy, like a tasty treat or useful tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter what you choose, don\u2019t forget to finish off each favor bag with a sincere thank you message. Personalize <a href=\"\/products\/tags\/22849\">Avery square tags<\/a> to match your theme then use ribbons in your color scheme to tie them on each favor and you\u2019re all set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t stress over planning the perfect baby shower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main objective of a baby shower is to help the soon-to-be-parents get ready for their new bundle of joy, so as long as the intention is there, your celebration is sure to be a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, these useful tips make planning a baby shower easy.
