Why organise a Baby Shower?

A baby shower is a celebration in honour of the mother-to-be and her unborn baby. It's a chance to celebrate the pregnancy in a friendly atmosphere, surrounded by friends and family. It's also the ideal opportunity to receive gifts to prepare for the baby's arrival, while spending a pleasant moment with friends and family.

When to organise a Baby Shower?

Traditionally, the baby shower takes place around the 7ᵉ or 8ᵉ months of pregnancy. At this stage, the mother-to-be is still in good shape to enjoy the party, and there's plenty of time before the baby arrives to organise the final preparations.

Baby Shower themes: Which atmosphere to choose?

Choosing a theme is essential for setting the tone for your baby shower. Here are some ideas for popular themes:

1. Children's film Choose one or even a few and go for it!
2. Princess or Little Prince Pastel shades, crowns and small thrones for a royal atmosphere.
3. Arc-en-Ciel Bright, cheerful colours for a festive atmosphere.
4. Tropical Palm trees, pink flamingos and exotic fruits for a sunny celebration
5. Fashionnista If you're fashion forward, then this is the theme for you. Try setting up a table of beautiful baby clothes to sort through and let each guest create personalised looks for the baby's arrival.
6. Sunshine This theme is all about the bright sunshine of summer and the happiness that comes with the arrival of a baby. Not only will this theme bring out the radiant joy of bringing a new life into the world, but it's perfect for a gender-neutral baby shower. Yellow is the colour of choice and sunshine is the watchword, so it's a great alternative if the mum-to-be doesn't want to know the sex of the baby.
7. Elegant tea party : Tiny teacups and snacks to satisfy every pregnancy craving! This baby shower theme is the perfect mix of cute and decorative while being relaxing for everyone. Sometimes the best showers are those that allow everyone to sit and chat over a cup of tea.

The most important part of planning a baby shower is focusing on the mum-to-be!

• Baby quiz Ask questions about babies and motherhood, and see who knows the most.
• Prediction game The guests guess the weight, height and date of birth of the baby-to-be.
