BABY SHOWER VALENTINES DAY THEME

Planning a baby shower at the beginning of the year is most fun and a great way to start the new year! Baby showers during the month of Valentine's makes it easy to tie in the baby shower theme of love. An easy baby shower decoration is placing rose petals on tables along with candy hearts. Make the baby shower centerpieces a bouquet of red, white and pink flowers. Add the decorations of angels/cupid along with red table cloths, pink and white napkins and balloons. You now have a Valentine's baby shower!

Serve yummy finger foods at the baby shower that are not too carb heavy. Lots of fruit and veggies are always a great idea and appreciated by the baby shower guests. As for desserts, go with some baby shower food favorites of designer cupcakes, mini cakes and even heart shaped cookie sandwiches with ice cream (can be heart shaped). As for baby shower favors, use functional baby bottles with candy hearts or red hots in them. Place red streamer up on the walls with self made cut out hearts on the walls. Make sure to let everyone know the venue as to know how to dress this cold winter!

A great baby shower game is to give everyone cut out hearts to write a word of new parent advice and to share them at the baby shower and guess who is the advice giver. Play a game of guessing how many candy hearts are in a baby bottle is also an easy game played at any time during the baby shower.

When planning the baby shower gift make it a memorable one that can be engraved like a baby frame or functional like diaper cakes, scented candles or of course something on the baby registry. Make sure to send out the baby shower invitations as early as possible since the beginning of the year is a big time for baby shower guests to make plans for the year. Also decorate the baby shower invitations with confetti hearts, love statements or hearts on the card itself. Another cute idea is to make a baby shower shirt for the mommy-to-be or the little one or create a cute onesie with your own personalized statement as a baby shower gift.

Having a baby shower during the New Years, Winter and January season make the start to a new year fun and exciting. There are so many baby shower ideas that can be tied into the shower. Use the symbolic "baby time" in the theme of the party. You can find many ideas on the web for drawing or purchasing baby shower favors that tie in father and baby time. As a baby shower theme bring in the winter wonderland cool colors or go with an eloquent new year's gold and black. Bring in the horns and top hats but have them state baby shower! Confetti is another great baby shower decoration for January.

Get out the baby shower invitations as early as possible since many of your baby shower guests may make plans to go out of town and plan their year early. A great baby shower game to play is the simple hot potato but use a baby time doll or some other baby symbol. Play the mommy-to-be's favorite music which can be mixed CD that someone makes and gives as a baby shower gift.

Since the weather is rough during January, make sure to plan a baby shower inside and in an area that is easy to get to. See if you can help the mommy to be with anything she needs as winter is a tough time to have a little one, especially if you live in the snow!

This holiday season is a great time to have a baby shower since there are so many things you can do to tie in the holiday to the theme of the party. A few ideas are to start off with baby shower invitations that have candy hearts or angels. Place heart decorations everywhere, including heart confetti on the tables, heart cardboard cutouts for the wall, heart centerpieces, heart candy (you can even personalize heart candy with the name of the mother to be on the candy). Baby shower table settings can be in red and white to tie in the theme as well as everyone signing in on a big heart that can be presented to the mother-to-be to remember which friends and family attended the baby shower.

A great baby shower game to play is to have everyone write a "loving" message for the mother and father to be on cardboard cutout hearts in giving them advice when the baby is born. The "loving messages on hearts tie in the Valentine's theme very well. Examples of this would be "Remember to enjoy the moments since they go fast", "Get as much sleep as possible before the baby is born" and "when he/she takes naps", etc. This can be a very memorable and touching activity at the baby shower. Great baby shower gifts can tie in the theme of St. Valentines with cute frames, hug-able toys and anything with heart or angel patterns.
