Planning a baby shower can be a very big task. In order to make
this process easier, here is a baby shower planning checklist
that should make things easier.
Printed cards
The invitation card is the primary element in the baby shower.
It should carry the theme of the party to let the guests know
what to expect. It will also guide them in buying the baby
shower gift. Send the invitations at least a month in advance.
Make sure to RSVP so you can plan against the right number of
guests.
Depending on your budget, you may choose from a variety of
invitations. The Internet offers

such a variety, from the free
and already printable to the online-purchased customized
invitations. If you are computer savvy, you may use your home
printer and a desktop publishing software to create-your-own
themed baby shower invitation.
While on the subject of invitation cards, prepare the thank you
cards at the same time. Ensure that your theme emanates in the
layout of the thank you card. Sending out thank you cards
provides proper closure to the party and gives your guests a
lasting memory of the fun they had.
Games and Activities
While your invitations are being

produced, plan for the party
activities. Games will enliven each activity and entice
participation from the guests. Depending on your theme, choose
the games that are suitable to the theme, or customize them to
suit. For example, the traditional bring me game can be
customized by asking to "bring me" pink colored items, for a
baby girl shower theme.
Prizes are as important in making the occasion memorable, so be
prepared to give prizes to all game winners and sometimes, even
participants.
Prepare or add on to this list as required by the activities
that you have planned. Make sure that

you have listed all the
things needed to make the activity successful and to avoid
last-minute paraphernalia substitutes.
Party Venue Set-up
As dictated by the theme, set-up the party place accordingly. If
it is a layette party, hang a clothesline all around the room
and clip colored paper cutouts of baby clothes and stuffs. For
the Hollywood theme, copy the set-up by having a red carpet
where guests will walk-in.
Food and Drinks
The other half of a lively party is overflowing food and drinks.
Make sure that as you finalize the number of guests, you are
able to buy

enough food and drink supplies for the headcount.
Buy an extra 10% more to make sure that hungry guests get their
fill. Like the games and activities list, expand this section to
include details on the supplies needed for your specific menu.
Baby Shower Souvenirs
Aside from the game prizes, give your guests a thank you token
for attending and participating in the baby shower. Note that
this is different from a thank you card, which will be sent to
individual guests as a thank you for their gift. Thus, guest who
may not have brought gifts can still receive this baby shower
souvenir. It

does not need to be expensive, especially if there
