What are baby showers?
Baby showers are a celebration of a new baby coming into the world. The meaning of ‘shower’ means to cover the parents with love and affection on their good news for welcoming a little one into their life.
But what do you do at a baby shower?
Anything! It can be a laidback meal and drinks with family and friends, a barbeque with games, or a tea party at a posh hotel, the main thing is that you’re celebrating the new parents-to-be and looking forward to their little one arriving into the world!
What games to play at a baby shower?
There are lots of games to play at a baby shower. These range from classical baby shower games to traditional outdoor games, perfect for a celebration outside in the summer months. A good baby shower won’t leave you lingering for something to do, so these games are ideal to break the ice at a party for guests who don’t know each other that well!
What gift should I bring to a baby shower?
Typically, guests of baby showers will bring a gift for the ones who are expecting. Most often, the gifts relate to babies, including baby essentials like nappies, blankets or baby mats, baby bottles, clothes, and baby toys. Or you can gift the newly expecting parents a little present when they have their little ones around them - chocolates, relaxing bath treats or even a meal voucher will be valued gifts for new parents!
Have fun!
A baby shower is a time to show your care and support for the newly expecting parents, so whatever your role is in a baby shower, we hope you enjoy, have fun and celebrate with friends and family for the special new human that’s entering the world!
