The host bought the items for guessing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865640 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 16:24:39 +0000 crazydoglady 2865640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought these pics were pretty.

She mentioned it a week or so before and I told her I would leave if she tried to do it. Such a horrible idea for a "game" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865629 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 16:06:07 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2865629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most games are unnecessary maybe bingo if you want to keep people engaged during gift opening.<br /> Do not under any circumstances play guess how big mom is with a string, it is just mortifying. I was forced to play at the shower my husband's aunt threw and I just felt awful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865627 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 15:54:53 +0000 josina 2865627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom/sisters did the diaper messages and they were so fun to read during those late night diaper changes! </p> <p>I've also always liked the gift bingo at baby/bridal showers.</p> <p>I've gone to some where the invitation asks for a signed book instead of a card so build a library for baby. Love that idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865617 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 15:26:16 +0000 catgirl 2865617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I don't really enjoy typically shower games. I prefer activities that people can choose to do and can do while socializing. At my shower my mom used a children's book as a guestbook - I love looking through it and seeing the messages from everyone. She also set up a onesie decorating station and had a package of diapers open for people to write messages on (those were fun to read in the middle of the night!). </p> <p>I was at a shower recently where they played bingo during gift opening. Not everyone participated but it was a fun way to stay engaged while the mom to be opened everything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865616 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 15:17:15 +0000 Jennibenni 2865616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you gone to Pinterest? There is so much inspiration there! You could just type in things like "girl baby shower" green and white baby shower" etc and get great ideas for decor. </p> <p>I personally loathe baby shower games and prefer just to socialize and do presents. A keepsake craft is fun. If there are many ladies who already have kids they could write down a piece of advice, or you could decorate quilt squares or onesies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865613 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 15:14:00 +0000 annem1990 2865613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: Yup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865610 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 15:09:37 +0000 crazydoglady 2865610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@annem1990: Is this her first? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cute-baby-shower-ideas#post-2865586 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 14:02:25 +0000 annem1990 2865586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am planning a Baby Shower for a friend next month. I have no clue where to start. It will be 10-12 women (in 20s and 30s). I love menu planning/cooking so I think food should be easy. I'd love some ideas for decorations, games or activities. Anyone have cute ideas? She is having a girl. Since it's a winter party I will probably do green/white/pops of pink colors. I'd love some ideas! </p>
