If you're hosting a baby shower, whether for a best friend or a family member, you want to be sure that this event will be a time for the expecting mama to relax and enjoy her time with her family and friends. Here are some helpful baby shower planning tips:
Theme
Themed baby showers tend to be a little more fun and memorable. Depending on the baby's gender, you can easily select themes such as "Pea in the Pod" or "Rubber Ducky".
Location
You can select local venues for large baby showers or you can also have them right at home. This decision is solely based on your budget and preference. In order to avoid cleanup, a nice restaurant might be a nice option - and everybody will be fed and satisfied!
Select the Games
Baby shower games are the heart of the baby shower as they cause every guest to become involved and have a good laugh. Games such as "Guess the baby food" and "Belly Size Guessing" are all great games. If you're not a gamer, here is an Arlene Pecora Signature idea: Purchase several different colored onsies (depending on the gender of the baby) and give each guest materials to decorate and personalize their outfit. These are great gifts for the baby!
Select the Guests!
A baby shower isn't complete without close friends and family members! Be sure to give your guests a few weeks in advance so that they can arrange their schedules!

Yeah I completely agree that themed baby showers are more interesting and memorable. You truly have shared amazing tips for baby shower parties. At domestic NYC venues I will also host a mermaid themed shower for my younger sister and will definitely consider your ideas.
