Baby Shower Games, Baby Shower Prizes & Gift Planning for Baby Shower Party

Baby showers do not have to be a formal affair where people are stoic and appear to not be having any fun. One way to ensure that people will have a good time is to plan exciting and fun party games that include creative prizes the guests will be vying for. Plus this will give the Mom-to-Be a lasting memory of her baby shower being fun and relaxing.

There are numerous games that can be played that suit both traditional as well as co-ed or couples baby showers. On the personalized baby shower invitations, it is fun to get the interest of guests by indicating a door prize will be given to the first person who RSVP's to the hostess.

Games are also a great way to makes things a bit more relaxed for everyone. Plus, most people will rise to the challenge and try to win the prize for the shower games. A fun game that can last throughout the party is the diaper pin baby game. Everyone will start out with one clothespin - a clothespin is usually better to use not only for clothing sakes, but also for not sticking people. Whenever someone says the word baby another person can take their clothespin. Whoever ends up with the most clothespins wins a prize. You can set a time limit or just whenever it appears that the baby party is starting to wrap up.

Another fun game, but is more solitary, is loading a wrapped basket full of infant items. Then allow each guest a certain amount of time to peer inside the basket, such as 15 seconds, and then guess how many items they can remember seeing in the basket. Another way to play this game is to camouflage the basket so no one can see inside and ask the guests to guess what could possibly be inside of the basket. Whoever guesses the most items wins.

There are numerous games that can be played that will get the guests interacting and lighten the mood of the party. Plus everyone enjoys receiving a prize. Suggested prizes for the games include candles, lotion or something such as that. If it is a couples or co-ed baby shower then the prizes can include such things are specialty BBQ sauce or gift card.

Regardless of the games, they can reflect the theme of the baby shower. Once the games have been decided, then gathering the needed items will need to be done. Then the prizes for each of the games can be decided upon. Keeping all the items in one place is the best idea, not only to help keep organized, but the host will not be stressed wondering where everything is and panicking that something is missing.

Once the printed announcements, custom cards or discount invitations have been sent to the invited guests, then the host can start gathering the needed items for the party. And, don't forget to order the baby thank you cards to match the invitations for the Mom-to-Be. Sample invitations verses, wordings and saying for baby cards are available from websites.

Breastfeeding a newborn is a full-time job. Newborns are getting used to nursing just as much as you are getting used to it. At first, your baby may take an hour to finish a feeding and then you are right back at it an hour later. It seems like it may be never-ending. Dad can help out by doing simple things like taking the baby for a walk in between feedings. Just that little break so you can go to the bathroom or take a shower or eat a little snack will be enough that you don't get completely burned out and exhausted.

Because your newborn is eating around the clock, the diaper changes will be around the clock as well. Some babies will have wet or dirty diapers almost every hour and at least every two hours. This is a lot of diaper changing. Dad is fully equipped to handle this chore. It may not be as glamorous or enjoyable as nursing, but it needs to be done and Dad can do it.

Three Things New Dads Can Do To Help Breastfeeding Moms

While you are feeding your baby around the clock, someone needs to feed you. Dad can take over the cooking and meal preparation for a few months until the feedings get a little more spread apart. Nursing moms are still eating for two and cooking may be out of the question when feedings are almost back to back for your newborn. Allow Dad to cook for a while. Have him prepare some snacks and just have them in the refrigerator for you for when you get that hunger pain and don't have time to make anything. Even if he is bad cook, you need to eat and it won't last forever.
