Rather than games, encourage guests at the baby shower to craft together. You can create a whole set of hand-painted blocks for the new baby’s nursery with this easy alphabet blocks diy.
TO MAKE: Before the party apply vinyl letter stickers to four sides of 2-inch, pine blocks. Set out the unfinished blocks along with acrylic paint and plenty of foam brushes. To help guide guests, display our free printable block craft directions signs on the table with the craft supplies. Use tweezers to remove the letter stickers once paint has dried. If desired, after the party seal the blocks with a clear coating.
An inexpensive sheet of siding from the hardware store makes the perfect backdrop for this Bird House Baby Shower theme. After a quick coat of gray paint, hammer in oversized nails to randomly hang miniature birdhouses. These were picked up in the dollar bin at the craft store.
Have your guests assemble their own yogurt parfaits complete with fresh berries, granola and homemade candied pecans. Serve homemade pizzelles which are simple to make with this Pizzelle Maker.

Since I love parties, I’m keen on almost any excuse to throw one. And the booming Baby Gender Reveal party trend is no exception! Here is a peek at a darling Yippee-themed gender reveal party thrown by Bettijo and Aimée at PagingSupermom.com. Most gender reveal parties tend to use yellow or a pink/blue combo as the party colors, but I love this bold black and white color palette — it feels refreshing and just right for a gender reveal.
FUN WAYS TO GET GUESTS INVOLVED: (1) Invite them to cast their boy-or-girl vote with these fun gender reveal buttons (2) Provide slips of paper and pens for guests to suggest name ideas for the couple to consider.
The Baby Ultrasound Record is my favorite party detail — it makes everything feel very official. Download the free printable ultrasound card and check out the rest of the Baby Gender Reveal party ideas at PagingSupermom.com.
