Welcome to the largest Baby Shower website! CLICK ON THE BUTTONS ABOVE OR ON THE BOTTLES TO THE LEFT

Baby shower 101 was created for new moms, friends and family members who are going to throw the baby shower. I wanted to make a portal where everyone can go to get free content in helping make planning less stressful for everyone as well as add some creativity to the baby shower if needed. We also launched a new baby shower retail directory for decorations, gifts and much more. You can see our retail directory here. A key fact to remember is that you are throwing this party for a good friend, sister, daughter, or family member and that being with good friends and family is the biggest value of the party. It does not have to be over the top (unless that is the way the mommy-to-be likes it to be :) Just make sure to have a good time with memorable things planned for the party since the biggest value during the baby shower is friendship, love, and excitement of a new little one joining the community of friends and family!

Please email us your ideas since we would love to hear your experiences and comments in making our site better!  We've already had over 1000 mom's and friends of the mommy-to-be email us with their experiences which has added great information to the site for others who are planning a baby shower to benefit from.

This can be a great help for the Mother and Father to be to get practical and helpful items that will make their lives easier in the months to come. Baby Shower Question of the Month: I want to throw a baby shower for my best friend and his wife and have a different baby shower theme than the current party that is planned. I even have other baby shower games planned that are different than the current party that will be in a few weeks. Am I breaking some "cultural" law that says there cannot be more than one shower? I don't want people to think the new parents are greedy. Baby shower answer of the month It is traditional to have one baby shower when looking at history but it is absolutely fine to throw more than one baby shower. It is important to figure out who will come to each party and to check in with the mommy-to-be in making sure she is okay with this. If the same people are invited to both, you can let them know that they do not need to bring two baby shower gifts. I hope this helps. For more baby shower questions of the month click here Be sure to visit and add to our new baby shower Bulletin Boards! We hope you find this site helpful since when I was planning my baby shower, there was not a lot of places to get all types of ideas to make the planning stress free! We will keep adding to this site as much comprehensive and helpful information so you can find everything in one place! Planning should be fun and a stress-free time, especially for the mommy-to-be and her family. We have included a links and resource page for you as well to make our site a great place to find everything you will ever need to know when planning a baby shower including games and ideas!

Thanksgiving Baby Shower November is here and it is time to give thanks. Thanksgiving season works out very well for planning baby shower themes, decorations and baby shower supplies. A few ideas are to use the theme of "giving thanks", by having everyone say what they are thankful for. It is also a great time to give by having everyone donate to a charity of less fortunate people, especially to a women's shelter or children's organization. A cute baby shower idea is to have everyone sign a Thanksgiving theme board (i.e., in the shape of a cornucopia, turkey, pilgrim, fall colors, etc on the board) and give the parent's to be so ideas that would be helpful for their preparing for their little one. Give some cute ideas to the mommy-to-be. Symbolic candy, including candy corns, miniature pumpkin candies, and fall colored candy are great to place on tables of the baby shower. Serving finger food out of Cornucopia's (the horn looking container that is symbolic of thanksgiving) as well as spreading colorful leaves and flowers (sunflowers) on tables is a nice touch. The pumpkin theme is still cute and works for Thanksgiving. Finding pumpkins that are symbolic of a mother, father and child is a cute idea. Another cute idea is to purchase pumpkins and place a smaller pumpkin in the larger hollowed-out pumpkin to symbolize the pregnancy! Dress the "mommy" pumpkin up for the baby shower and it will be sure to get some laughs from the baby shower guests! Food that you serve can also tie in such as little baby shower finger food, turkey sandwiches, ham, corn, cranberries/cranberry juice. Baby shower decorations can be purchased or created for the Thanksgiving season as well as cups, place settings and other items. The use of brown, gold, orange, red, black and yellow is festive for the November season. Dried leaves can also be cleaned and used as decorations. Pass the baby pumpkin (like hot potato) can be played. Wall decorations can be Thanksgiving related, with the use of pilgrims, pumpkin cut-outs, Indian feathers, turkey, and fall symbols. Items can be placed on tables for the baby shower guests to enjoy! A great baby shower game to play is to have everyone write a message for the mother and father to be on cut out pumpkins, cornucopias, leaves or pilgrim hats and present them to the parent's-to-be by placing them in a keepsake box shaped like a cornucopia. Have the mother-to-be read each one out loud as she takes them out of the box which makes for a sentimental and fun time. There are so many ways to tie in the Thanksgiving season to the baby shower theme. We also have tons of other ideas throughout the site and hope you enjoy our information. Have a great time at the upcoming party and we hope to help out in your planning. HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Check out our other holiday baby shower ideas.
