Baby Shower Gifts Ideas
Part of the fun of a Baby Shower is playing games and winning prizes. The prizes don’t have to be anything great. It’s just fun to be able to win something. When you’re the person giving the shower, however, you might not know what kind of prizes would be best. Should you opt for humorous prizes, practical prizes, or prizes to be passed on to the mommy-to-be? Whatever you decide to do will be all in the name of fun honoring the little new life that’s about to be born. Be creative, and you can come up with some Baby Shower prize ideas that will tickle everyone’s fancy.
Sometimes the fun of how you give the prizes out can be more important than the prizes themselves. For instance, you can have a tray of prizes where everyone can see them. Write the name of each prize on a small slip of paper, and put each paper inside of a balloon. You’ll need to rent a helium tank so that you can blow up the balloons. Tie curling ribbons to them, and you can either make a balloon bouquet tied to a chair arm or use a baby bottle filled with candy as an anchor for each one. You can also just put the balloons at various places around the room where people will be able to grab hold of the strings. When guests win prizes, they will need to choose a balloon and take it back to their chair to sit on it in order to pop it and find out what their prize is.
The coolest Baby Shower Prizes you can give are often things you make yourself, and these won’t cost very much if you’re trying to throw your baby shower on a budget. For example, you can buy craft sticks at a hobby or discount store very inexpensively and use them to make all kinds of cute creations. If the baby has already been born, you can make craft stick frames with pictures of the baby inside. Use colored craft sticks so that you won’t need to paint them, and decorate them with foam cut-outs and glitter glue. Believe me, your guests will love them! Another thing you might try if you’re crafty is making your own candles in decorated baby food jars. You can paint on the jars or use gingham, rickrack, and lace to camouflage the jars and then add a votive candle to match.
Decorated sugar cookies made in baby-item shapes and presented in colored cellophane and ribbons can be a good baby shower prize. If you can bake your own, do so, because it will cost less that way, and the cookies will be fresher. You can also purchase decorated cookies at local bakeries or shops online so that you can use them for prizes. You might also give beribboned cookie cutters with recipes attached so that your guests will be able to make their own special cookies in remembrance of a very special baby shower.
