Baby Girl Shower Themes

Baby Girl Shower Invitations

Let's start out with the invitations.

After all, they'll be the first part of the baby shower you'll need to plan.

Remember, the invitations are used to not only invite everyone, but to give a preview of the baby shower, so they need to reflect your baby girl theme.

It's easy to find pre-printed invitations in pink that you can send out.

There are white invitations with pink letter, pink and vellum invitations, or even pink invitations that have white lettering on them.

Another great idea is to make invitations at home.

If you decide to do this, purchase paper or cardstock in a shade of pink for girly invitations.

You can easily find free clip art online that you can use on the invitations, or you can add some cute girly stickers to the invitations as well.

Since these invitations are reflecting the baby girl theme, have some fun embellishing the invitations with lace or ribbon to make them even more exciting.

You may also want to know what to write inside the invitations. Often a poem is the perfect way to word a baby shower invite.

Decorating for a Baby Girl Shower

There are many different ideas you can use when decorating for a baby girl shower.

Using a lot of pink can definitely be a great idea, such as using pink table clothes, pink balloons, pink streamers, and pink paper products.

However, all that pink may get a bit old, so there are some ways that you can break up all the pink.

Consider adding some accents of other colors to the pink décor for the shower so you don't overwhelm everyone with all the pink.

Consider adding hints of yellow or even soft lavender accents so you avoid the look that a Pepto Bismol bottle just exploded in the room.

If you do go with all pink, use various shades to keep it interesting.

It's also fun to add ruffles to the décor as well. Add some porcelain dolls for decoration if you can gather some up.

Use plenty of ribbon for trimmings, and even consider using lace doilies to dress things up.

Plenty of flowers can really add some beautiful touches to the baby girl shower as well.

Tasty Food Ideas to Use

When you are trying to figure out what foods to serve at the baby girl themed shower, think dainty foods that are feminine for this baby shower.

Dainty finger foods make great ideas. Consider fancy little finger sandwiches, fruit and fruit dips, cheese trays, and various pink foods.

You can go with pink Jell-O, pink iced cookies, and other deserts that use pink in them as well.

Have the cake done in pinks, so it looks great on the table and it's part of the food you serve as well.

Activities and Games

Although it may be a bit tough to come up with some baby girl themed games and activities, you can adapt other baby shower activities to go along with your theme.

Here are some great ideas that you may want to use to keep the party going with laughs and a lot of fun.

Pink Candy Game

A spin on a common baby shower game is the Pink Candy Game.

Find some kind of small pink candy, such as little hearts or even pink beads if you can't find any pink candy.

Put the candy in a jar and close the lid. Make sure you count how many pieces of the candy go in the jar.

Then have the guests at the shower guess how many pieces are in the jar.

The person that guesses the closest to the real number of pieces wins the game.

Name that Girl

This game can be a lot of fun and can give mom some great ideas if she hasn't come up with a name for her baby yet.

Have everyone write letters A-Z on a piece of paper. Then give them 3-5 minutes to come up with a baby girl name for each letter in the alphabet.

Have fun reading off the names. The person with the most unique names wins the prize.

Dress That Baby

See how great everyone is at dressing a baby.

Get a baby doll that is close to newborn size. Have a set of clothing and a diaper for the baby.

Time everyone to see who is able to dress the baby the fastest. This one will be hilarious, and it's not as easy as moms remember.

Gift and Favor Ideas

Make sure that your gift and favor ideas go along with the baby shower them as well.

Try finding everything you can in pink.

Find pink candies to give out, pink bottles of bubbles, pink candles, and even pink lotions.

Mini bottles of blush wine or pink champagne make great ideas, as do pink hair accessories and pink soaps.
