If you are a first time planner or an experienced planner, you
can benefit by following some simple strategies to ensure your
baby shower goes off without a hitch.
Here's what the experts recommend when it comes to baby shower

arrival. Be sure you check in
first to plan accordingly.
2) Decide where the shower will be held. Usually this is a
location other than the mom to be's home.
3) Decide who should be invited. If you are hosting, you should
always ask the mom to be who she wants invited before you make a

started.
4) Send out invitations and be sure to include R.S.V.P.

information. You'll want to know
exactly how many people are coming and your guests will want to
know where they can buy the guest of honor some great gifts.
5) Decide on a theme. This doesn't have to be anything
elaborate. It can even be as simple as 'pink' if the mom is
having a girl. You might consider asking the mom to be, she
might have a theme in mind. This will help you plan decorations.
6) Order a cake or decide on the type of cake you want to make.

provide a full meal, but snacks are a nice touch.

the party. You can find hundreds of baby shower games on line.
Once you have planned all of these essential steps, the rest of
the baby shower is easy! You simply need to set up house,
decorate and welcome your guest of honor on their big day.

hour or so guests can spend mingling and munching on goodies.
You can then spend another ½ hour playing a couple of games.
Then allow your guest of honor to open her gifts! Be prepared to
write down who all the gifts came from so your mom can send
thank you notes.
After the gifts are open, usually guests have some cake, mingle
some more and then leave. You might consider having some party
favors available for guests. A great idea is mini baby bottles

The most important thing to remember about baby shower planning
is that everyone should have a good time. Sit back, relax and
don't stress about minor details. Most people are just looking
for a good laugh and some time to pat mom to be's growing belly!
