It feels like everyone I know is expecting these days and I love being able to help and plan baby showers for all of my friends. The hardest part is coming up with a fun and festive theme where gender doesn’t always matter. Here are some of my ideas for a fun baby shower theme:<\/p>

Fiesta<\/b><\/h2>

It isn’t a real party until you have a piñata! Having a fiesta-themed party is a great way to celebrate the new baby coming into the world. Appetizers like chips and salsa are easy to prepare and you can serve food in the form of a taco or burrito bar. <\/p>

Decorate the house with papel picado<\/a>, sombreros and fun and funky colors. As far as favors for your fiesta themed party go, you can give out mini piñatas<\/a> (pictured below) with candy or other treats inside of them. They are sweet little keepsakes that match your theme perfectly. <\/p>

Woodland Creatures<\/h2>

Who doesn’t love woodland creatures? If you’re totally in love with woodland creatures, it’s a great way to get props and items for your baby’s nursery while decorating a fun baby shower. <\/p>

Everyone at the shower can dress up like a different woodland creature<\/a>, and you can have a fun paradise of your own for your shower.<\/p>

DIY<\/h2>

While this may not sound like a theme, it actually can be a lot of fun. Decorate your entire space with different craft stations for babies. For example, you can have a station where you make baby headbands<\/a> (shown below) or a place where you make wall art for your baby’s nursery. If you have a lot of fun and creative friends a DIY or Crafters theme can be a really fun time for everyone.<\/p>

Candyland <\/h2>

Who doesn’t love playing the game candyland? And, who doesn’t love candy? Create a magical wonderland of candy while playing the game candyland. You can decorate all of the tables with sweet trees<\/a> (shown below) and have candy-centered games and activities. <\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Harry Potter<\/h2>

For those who love the Harry Potter books, a Harry Potter themed shower may just have all the elements they want! You can even play a game where people have to guess which house the baby would be sorted into. Decor can feature items like a sorting hat piñata<\/a> (shown below) and banners for all of the different houses.<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Books<\/h2>

Is the mother-to-be an avid reader? You can create a magical atmosphere for a baby shower in a library or bookstore. Everyone who comes can bring a book to fill the baby’s bookshelf! You can feature characters on the wall from the Mr & Mrs books, and create luminaries and other decorations from old book pages. Even send out invitations that look like children’s books<\/a> (shown below).<\/p>
