Planning a baby shower is truly an exciting time for you, the mom-to-be, and her guests. It's a time to celebrate the joy of motherhood and to welcome to new baby into everyone's lives. However, are you looking for a great baby shower theme? One that comes to mind that is great for a little boy or girl is a "Ready to Pop" baby shower and Wedding and Party Network has all the details on how to create this adorable look.
Baby Shower Decorations – Of course, there's that saying "You look like you're about to pop" that mothers hear when they're pretty far along in their pregnancy. So, this baby shower is just a play off that saying. Think about things that pop. However, the first thing you must do is settle on colors. Is it for a boy, little girl, or are you wanting to keep it gender neutral? Honestly, this shower looks best when it's bright, colorful, and you feature different colors.
Once you settle on the colors, you can start finding the right table linens, centerpieces, and balloons to include in your shower decor. Keep it simple with the bright colors.
Popping Food – Where you really make this shower shine is with the party food. Again, play off the word "pop". What comes to mind? Popcorn, cake pops, gum balls, suckers with bubblegum inside, pop rocks, rice krispy treats, home-made pop tarts, and soda pop all come to mind. Make this an all dessert shower. Most of the time guests come to showers having already eaten so your food can go to waste. Having an all dessert shower is great to satisfy their sweet tooth and give them something to snack on.
On your dessert table, feature different flavors of popcorn in popcorn tubs that feature your colors. Have your cake pops and pop tarts displayed in a fun way as well. Also, don't forget to set up a candy bar. Feature gum balls in a variety of colors, Blow pops, Pop Rocks, bubble gum, and any other type of candy you can think of. A baby shower cake is a must too.
Pop Quiz – If you want to have shower activities, you can have guests see who can blow the biggest bubble from bubble gum, catch bubbles, or create a pop quiz that features questions on the mother-to-be and pregnancy facts. These games are fun for everyone!
If you're planning a baby shower, make sure it's Ready to Pop for the new mother-to-be and her guests.
