How to Prepare for a Baby Shower
To help ensure the perfect celebration of your new arrival, here are a few tips to help make your baby shower a memorable event.
1. Plan Ahead: Showers can be a fun way to get to know friends and family who will soon become parents, but it’s important to plan ahead so that everything runs smoothly. Make a guest list and leave enough time for people to RSVP, order invitations, and set up decorations.
2. Get Ready! Make sure you have all the necessary items before the shower: diapers, wipes, pacifiers, bottles, clothes, hats, blankets… the list goes on! And don’t forget the cups! If you can squeeze in some last-minute shopping while everyone is at the shower, that will save time later.
3. Decorate Wisely: Once everything is ready, it’s time to get creative! A themed shower offers a fun opportunity to dress up like your favorite baby character or theme something festive like “First Year Fun” or “Sweet 16 Baby Shower Party.” Use quotes from your newest addition or find cute baby accessories online and hang them on the walls alongside photos of you both as newlyweds (or soon-to-be parents!).
What to pray for when hosting a baby shower
When planning a baby shower, it is important to think about what to pray for the new mother. Here are some specific prayers that may be helpful:
– That the mother and child will be healthy and happy.
– That the mother will feel supported in her new role as a parent.
– That the baby will have a smooth transition into life.
– That the baby’s siblings and friends will be supportive and welcoming.
Tips for throwing a successful baby shower
When planning your baby shower, be sure to think about what you would like to happen. Do you want a fun, lively party or do you want a more somber occasion? There are many things to take into account when throwing a baby shower.
Decide who will be hosting the shower. If it is being thrown by the mother-to-be, she should make all the arrangements. If it is being thrown by friends or family of the parents, then it may be easier for them to coordinate and have a more fun party.
Invite a wide variety of guests. This way no one feels left out. Try to have around 20 people so that there is something for everyone to do. It’s also nice if there are themes involved; for example, if there are grandchildren of both parents involved in the shower, offer different games and activities involving those grandchildren as well as photo ops with the new arrival!
Set some time aside beforehand to decorate and prepare for the party. Have plenty of decorations (maybe even temporary ones) available such as balloons, streamers, flowers and nonperishable snacks like fruits or cake pops. Make sure everything is clean and free from allergens before inviting guests!
Finally, invite Mother Nature into your celebration! Get outside and enjoy some fresh air while you wait for everyone else to arrive!
