Baby Shower Jungle Cakes
Can anyone give me Baby Shower help/advice?
I have to throw a Baby Shower for my big sis on nov.3 and am pulling my hair out!! i have the cake i have the location i have the guest list. But i dont know what to do about party favors, games, or what to award winners of games. She wants a rainforest theme like mainly rainforest green and tree frogs. its for a boy. any advice will help cuz i am not good at these things to do. PLEASE HELP!!! P.S. if you know where i can find ANY rainforest baby shower things (not to be confused with jungle theme) let me know like websites or stores. thanks!!
Just some random ideas I had:
– Favors- little bags of gummy frogs, little plastic frog toys (find them at a party store),
– Find a rainforest sounds CD and play it throughout the shower.
– Build a tree out of colored butcher paper to designate the gift table. (Wrap brown paper around a cylinder. Leave some folds and crinkles in the paper to make it look like bark. Unfold some wire coat hangers. Cut out leaf-like shapes about 2 – 2.5 feet long (think banana trees) out of green paper and attach one leaf to the end of each wire. Stick the bare ends of the wires into the cylinder so that the wire side of the leaves are facing up and the wires are hidden. Attach a few frogs to the trunk of the tree and place on a table.
– Use banana leaves (on plates) to serve food. Use dark wood or bamboo serving dishes and utensils.
– Use ingredients that you would find in the rainforest. Bananas, mangoes, macadamia and brazil nuts, cocoa, etc.
And don’t forget, just because it is a baby shower doesn’t mean it has to be baby themed! You can just have a theme party where you give baby gifts to the mom-to-be.
