Details for the Milk and Cookies baby shower on the blog this week:  And fun ideas to work in to the party.

Sign to go out front instead of the traditional “Baby Shower”

Using items to decorate that can also be a gift are “multi-purpose” for the baby shower.  Make sure you’re spelling the name right before purchasing of course  ;)   This one is from Hobby Lobby!

Thanks to The Grande Event, Rental and design company, we were able to find the perfect linens and colors to match the rest of the theme.  By giving the porch setup a little change up it allows guests to have a place to use for transition.

Remember games keep the party going… try a word scramble.  Instead of using basic words like “baby” and “diaper” throw in the moms name or baby’s name.

Very simple side table decor.  Use items that go with the food table or theme of the party in a subtle way

Antique milk jars turned into flower vase

Create an activity for the guests that they mom-to-be can enjoy after the party is over.  Here, each guest had the option of writing an note to the mom OR baby and they will be added to a book with photos from the party given by the hostess.

Another simple Game:  This one has a custom CD made by G-nys Entertainment

Simply create a play list of songs with the name “Baby” in the title
Play the song for 5 seconds or so
Each guest will be able to guess what they think the song is
Play them back when the answers are read and see who gets the most correct.
