(Guys, here’re some advice from party planning expert Ashley Radar on how to pick unique baby shower favors. Hope you will find it helpful.
Enjoy.)
Baby showers are a fun way to welcome a new child to the family. It's also a big help to the new parents. The
gifts they get at the
baby shower can take a huge burden off them when they are preparing for their expensive bundle of joy.
Typically, the party host gives
shower favors as door prizes or as prizes for games. The mother-to-be or grandmother-to-be may also give favors as a thank you for the gifts.
Baby shower gifts can be gender-specific or neutral depending on the parents' preference of knowing what the baby is before it comes. Choose your
baby shower favors based on this. Don't forget to note this on the
invitation.
Here are some ideas for cute
baby shower favors:
Baby BoyBlue is always a good color for baby boys, but why not be a little different and go for browns and greens or a sports theme. Feel out the mother-to-be before making it a themed shower. She may prefer it be a boy shower over a baseball shower.
