Baby Shower Parties.

The news about being pregnant is the best news of all. Well, of course only second to hearing the grand proposal. After a successful wedding ceremony, hearing that your love has borne fruit is the icing on the cake.

For a first time mother-to-be it can be a very difficult job to search for the right stuff for the new baby. A simple solution to this would be to prepare a list of necessary things which the new born will require, and purchasing them little by little, so that all the necessary items can be arranged for before the arrival of the new born.

But there is another easy way to almost have it all, without getting too much headache over it. Giving a baby shower party, is a perfect solution for this. The only headache mom-to-be would have is the menu she would have to prepare on that day and that is easier for her. For really getting things more exiting she can sent out unique baby shower invitations to the invitees.

Organizing a baby shower party ensures you of getting out of the burden of searching for useful baby stuff, now this part has to be managed by the invitees. But now another question arises. How will the baby shower go about? This concern can be solved, if we choose a theme based baby shower, which will help to guide the flow of the party. You can plan a unique baby shower theme. How about planning the theme on colors? If you know the gender of the baby then how about planning a theme based on the colors, that is Blue or Pink, a color universally represent for a baby boy or a baby girl. Or How about character-themed baby shower such as the Sesame Street, Power Puff Girls, Dexter's Laboratory or the Looney Tunes?

Once the baby shower is finished, take stock of what is already there and not. For those items still missing from your list, make the necessary arrangements to have it readily available once the baby arrives.

Just some last few tips for a successful baby shower:

Hold it four to six weeks before the due date, establish a theme, write down the guest list, set the tone and size of the baby shower, plan the games, plan the menu, create baby shower party favors, and last but not the least, set the time and location, if it will not be held in your residence.

Remember, the baby shower party is a way to welcome the new baby, so have fun in doing so.

Baby Shower Cakes With A Difference

Possibly you were thinking that baby shower cakes were merely a tasty dessert served at the party... Well, that is definitely one form of cake. But there's another kind of baby shower cake that is filled with all kinds of useful gifts for the expectant mom. One of the most popular choices in this area is a gift which really can look like a tiered wedding cake. But instead of being made of flour, eggs and sugar, it is constructed from the one thing which a new mom can never have too many of - diapers.

These ingenious and decorative baby shower cakes make for the perfect gift for the occasion. Everyone thinks of giving diapers to the expectant mom and she will definitely be able to use them. But giving them in this way turns a needed but dull gift into an opportunity for laughter for both the guests and the guest of honor.

Piled high and covered with other pretty items which really do make it just look like the genuine article, diaper cakes are practical and fun and the guest of honor can simply peel them off one at a time as needed. Exactly like eating a wedding cake which can last for days or even weeks, this gift provides its own storage bin.

The same design idea has been used successfully for many other unique baby shower gifts. The faux wedding cake can be filled with all sorts of toys for the baby, gifts for the expectant mother and much more.

It isn't only diapers, after all, which the happy couple will need soon. Baby oil, baby powder, lotion, ointment and many related hygiene products are all common items in the nursery. At about 32 inches high, you will discover that these cakes hold many of these necessities. Booties, terry cloth towels, a baby cap and several other clothing items are all part of the package too.

Even the somewhat smaller 2-tier baby shower cakes can offer dozens of most useful gifts and makes a marvelous decoration as a centerpiece for the baby shower table. Simply peel off the outer layers and enjoy the teething ring, pacifier, rattle and more that will certainly get used. Open it up and find socks, a brush and comb, a manicure set and many other presents which are equally useful.

A number of baby shower cakes may house only decorative items, but these too will be most appreciated by the guest of honor. Ceramic baby blocks, silk roses and much more set on a silver platter make this a gift that won't be shoved in the closet after the party. You will find the blocks lining the shelf in the baby's room and the silk roses on the mantle, while the silver platter is used to liven up the dining table on special occasions.

Take a look at the full range of baby shower cakes available nowadays and you will be astounded by the number of creative options.

And, do not forget of course to order the real thing for the shower while you are at it.

Three Baby Shower Gifts They Won't Expect

Three Baby Shower Gifts They Won't Expect

Author: Alyice Edrich


I love baby showers. I love the idea of helping an expectant mother prepare for the arrival of her unborn child. I love sitting with a bunch of women as they trade mommy stories, play silly games, and eat yummy food. But what I don't like is watching one gift after another open only to discover it's the same theme: diapers, baby bottles, baby clothes. I've always prided myself on discovering unique gifts that both mommy and baby can use--maybe not the minute baby is born but eventually, when all the other gifts have long been forgotten. And these three items are sure to add a new twist to the words, "baby shower gift"...

OnTray By Laura Hamrick http://ontray2go.com

Whether you're an advent coupon clipper, a frugal shopper with a calculator and buying list, or a mom with young children, you'll want to get an OnTray™.

This little tray is amazingly simple to use and yet, it saves so many headaches. Simply attach the clip to the shopping cart handlebar and your hands free. No more bending over to pick up dropped baggies of snacks, no more bending over to pick up calculators that have slipped through the cracks on the seat, and no more little one's whining because they're bored or hungry.

The tray can be used to hold snacks, coupons, crayons and a pad, action figures, and so much more. And the best part is that it isn't bulky. It doesn't take up a lot of room so your child can still sit comfortably in the shopping cart. In fact, you can put two OnTrays side by side--one for you and one for your child--and still have plenty of room.

So the next time you're doing a little grocery shopping, think about how much easier it would be to have a little tray, then go home and hop online to order an OnTray™ for yourself--heck, you may even want to get a couple for gifts. I promise you won't be disappointed!

Snak Trap By Christine Moss http://snacktrap.com

I have to admit that when I first saw The Snack Trap™ I didn't think it would work. After all, the lid seemed flimsy and the hole looked as though the food would just force its way out when dropped or tipped over. But I've dropped it, turned it upside down, and shoved my large adult hand in and out of the lid...and guess what happened? I pleasantly found the lid works! This is an amazing product and my only regret is that it wasn't invented sooner!

Every parent's worst nightmare is finding his/her child has stashed an entire year's worth of finger foods under his/her car seat or having to follow that child around the house picking up the trail he/she has left behind.

While The Snack Trap™ was originally invented for toddlers, I have to admit that I find it the perfect solution for snacking at my desk! How many times have we, as adults, brought a cup of small snacks to the desk only to knock them over while looking for an item or reaching for that cup?

The next time you're out shopping for the perfect baby shower gift, Christmas stocking stuffer, or just because gift, for a toddler in your life, buy The Snack Trap™.

10 Minute Menu By Kathleen Peters http://10minutemenu.com

Are you tired of wasting your hard-earned money on restaurant and fast-food bills? Do you find grocery shopping to be your least favorite chore? With 10 Minute Menu, you'll not only find grocery shopping more desirable, but you'll learn to cut your grocery bill in half, save hundreds of dollars by eating in, and waste less food.

When I first opened the 10 Minute Menu Planner, I have to admit that I was overwhelmed. With my busy lifestyle, the idea of putting together a meal plan just didn't appeal to me. After all, who had time to scour recipe books, make the initial shopping list, and set up the menu planner? So I put off the review.

Then after countless trips to the refrigerator where I'd literally open and close the refrigerator in exasperation, I decided to give the 10 Minute Menu a try.

Each planner comes with everything you need to plan meals for an entire month, but what makes the system unique is that you aren't eating meals you've never tried. You're picking your family's favorites and incorporating them into a plan that works for your busy lifestyle. Then once everything is in place, it literally takes seconds to prepare evening meals. Which means...

You guessed it! Busy parents have more time to spend with their kids!

One thing I did different with the system was type and print out my recipes, using a 9 point font. I then cut and glued the recipes to the cards provided in the kit; that way, I didn't have to flip through recipe books and magazines, thus saving me even more time!
