Create lasting impressions with these theme party ideas for baby showers

To lend a touch of magic to your celebrations, choose the right theme party ideas. They have the power to transform baby showers to magical, unforgettable events. Besides, having theme party ideas makes planning much easier at baby showers. Because they lend a focus to the event, they help in everything from décor to food to games, invitations and more. I'll present you with ones that have proven successful at these events.

Pick and choose from them - or better still, combine, adapt and expand on some of the theme party ideas below, to come up with something that's uniquely yours. Your imagination is the magic wand that can change baby showers into one-of-a-kind events!

One of the simplest, yet most charming theme party ideas is to use a baby item as a focal point for your baby showers. Items like plush toys, bottles, booties, diapers and plenty more. Choose from play time items, feeding products and others. Well done decorations and appropriate games around your chosen item make for lovely celebrations.

If mom-to-be is lucky enough to be having twins, then maybe Noah's Ark would be top among your theme party ideas! She's like Noah who invited two of all creatures along! At baby showers, do stuff like have two centerpiece cakes, guests can bring along two gifts, etc.

Stories make great themes as well. Find out what mom-to-be's favorite story was, when she was a child - Goldilocks and the three bears, or any number of others. And use that for your baby showers. (I know someone whose favorite stories are all from the Arabian Nights!).

Nursery rhymes have been successfully used as themes at many baby party showers. After all, the little one will be singing them before long, so why not use them? Just pick the expectant mommy's favorite - Jack & Jill, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Humpty Dumpty, or any of dozens of others. It's easy to do decorations, games, etc that tie in.

One way to receive many different kinds of gifts is to use a 'time of the day' theme party idea. When sending out invitations, assign a time of the day to each guest. At the baby shower, she brings along a gift that baby could use at her allotted time. She can explain her choice of gift when she comes to the party!

Another way to receive a wide range of presents is to use theme party ideas like 'baby's first'. Before the baby showers, the hostess selects important landmarks in baby's life - like when she starts crawling, eats her first solid food, etc. Each landmark is assigned to a guest, who then brings along a gift appropriate to that time.
