BABY SHOWER HALLOWEEN THEME

It's time to party Halloween style for the baby shower! - Halloween makes a great theme for any baby shower at the end of September and October since there are so many things you can do to tie in this trick or treat season as the theme of the party.

A few ideas are to use the theme of baby monsters, symbolic candy (candy corns, miniature pumpkin candies, and gummy bears) as well as a mother, father and baby pumpkin to dress the room (you can place the baby pumpkin in a diaper :) You can also, as a gift have everyone bring trick or treat bags with useful baby shower supplies like cotton, diapers, etc, tying into the theme of Halloween.

Decorations can be purchased or created for the Halloween season as well as cups, place settings and other items. The use of orange, black, white, and yellow are festive for the October and November seasons. Dried leaves can also be cleaned and used as decorations. Pass the baby pumpkin (like hot potato) can be played as well as guess the candy bar by blindfolding a guest and having them feel a candy bar to guess which one. It is also fun to make a story about the mommy-to-be using candy names like, "Tina started to get Snickers as her husband's voice Krackel'd as he asked Nurse Hershey and Dr. Goodbar if he should bring out a chocolate blue cigar or pink cigar. You can be creative and glue the actual candy bars on a poster, having everyone sign and attach a digital picture of the baby shower guests which makes a great memory!

Wall decorations can be Halloween festive with the use of moons, pumpkin cut-outs, witches and cute baby monsters or monster cartoons. Items can be placed on tables such as pumpkins, candy fangs and other items 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 or witches and present them to the mother to be by placing them in a keepsake box dressed in the theme of Halloween. 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. Charley Brown and the Great Pumpkin is a great book to get for the mommy to be as well as a broom (for a witch them but used to clean when the baby comes :) and other items can be used to decorate the room for the baby shower. You can also get haunted house music to play for ambiance.

There are so many ways to tie in the Halloween 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 with babyshower101.com. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Halloween Baby Shower

Halloween is on its way and a great time to celebrate a baby shower! It is a great holiday to incorporate into the party in many ways. Have everyone dress up in their favorite cartoon, children's show, baby doll (i.e., Raggedy Ann, Barbie, Bratz Dolls), etc and make a memorable baby shower! Dress up the mommy-to-be's tummy as a football, volleyball or some other object in costume! Another fun thing to do is to make it easy and purchase Halloween baby shower t-shirts.

Baby shower decorations can be in the traditional Halloween colors of orange and black, mixed in with the baby blue, pink or teal, depending on what the mommy-to-be is having (if she knows and tells). Serve candy corns and other Halloween chocolates and treats! A very fun idea is to have everyone bring a trick-or-treat bag of baby shower goodies that the mommy-to-be can use with her baby. You can find some great baby shower gifts here (www.babiesfirstchoice.com). Another great idea is to make baby shower "finger" foods and "spirits" in the Halloween tradition! Call them funny Halloween names like Witches punch, blood red wine, deviled eggs and finger 'sand-witches' (deli meats).

Dress up the baby shower with other fun decorations and supplies like orange and black balloons, streamers and other fun things you can get at a party store to make the room festive (but not too scary). Check this out with the mommy-to-be to make sure she wants something in the festive Halloween colors. Another idea is to bring in the Fall season with changing leaves, cornucopias, pumpkins and other Fall fun decorations. A fun baby shower game is to play pass the baby pumpkin (just like hot potatoe) to children's music. You can then give the children's music to the mommy-to-be as a present. Check out tons of other baby shower games.

Have a great time at the upcoming party and we hope to help out in your planning with babyshower101.com. For more baby shower holiday ideas, check out our Holiday page.
