Boy Baby Shower Theme Ideas

Baby Boy Invitations

Start the baby boy shower in style with great invitations.

You want the invitations you send out to convey the theme of the shower, so you'll want to go with invites that let everyone know that this is a baby boy themed shower.

Using blue invitations or printing out invitations on blue cardstock or paper is a great idea, since blue is often thought of as a baby boy color.

There are plenty of baby boy invitations you can easily purchase, but if you want to save some money and get creative, you can make the invitations yourself.

Design the invitations on the computer, and add in some boy themed free clip art from the web. Print them out, and then you can dress them up with stickers, ribbon, or other great embellishments.

You can even use the free printable baby boy shower invites on this site.

Maybe you want to know what to write in the invitations.

Here you will find some great FREE Baby Boy Poems that you can include in your invitations. Use these poems or you can combine the poems together for something special of your own.

Decorations for a Boy Baby Shower Party

Decorating for the baby boy themed shower can be a whole lot of fun too.

Wondering how you should decorate to make the theme come together?

Well, using blue as the primary color for your decorations is definitely a great idea.

However, you can use other colors to make the blue stand out.

Decorate with fun toys, such as toy trucks, construction toys, and wooden blocks as well. You can use balloons for decorations in various shades of blue.

Find a nice banner saying "It's a Boy" to use for decoration as well. Adding paper products in blue will also compliment the theme.

Great Food Ideas

Food is definitely an important part of the baby shower, and you'll want to choose foods that will go with your theme.

Consider going with a nice "manly" meal for the shower. Maybe have some ribs or even grill out with burgers or other grilled foods. Chips and various dips are great options as well.

For desserts, take some sandy buckets and make mud pie (edible mud pie) for everyone to eat.

The cake for the shower should be decorated in blues to compliment the rest of the theme and will make a great centerpiece on the food table.

Games and Activities

You'll want to keep the baby boy shower going with some great games and activities that everyone will enjoy.

Try to keep the games and activities in line with the baby boy theme that you are using as well.

Here are a few great ideas:

Name That Toy

One fun game you can play at the shower is Name That Toy.

Give everyone a sheet of paper. Give them 3-5 minutes, and time them.

Have each guest write down all the little boy type toys that they can think about. Have guests read their lists.

When one person reads something others have, that gets crossed off the list. The person with the most original boy toys on their list that no one else has wins the prize.

Baby Boy Name Game

Have papers for everyone lettered from A-Z.

Give them a certain amount of time and have them come up with baby boy names for each letter of the alphabet.

Whoever gets all the letters filled in with a name wins the game.

Baby Boy Advice

New moms can always use some advice. Go around the room and ask other moms to give advice for raising boys.

Everyone knows that raising boys and girls is very different. This is a fun way to get everyone involved.

Guests can share memories of raising their own boys and offer mom-to-be some great advice for little boys.

Favor and Prize Ideas

You'll probably want to go with favors and prizes that are going to reflect the theme of the shower, so look for favors that come in blue.

Consider beautiful blue keychains to give out as favors. Puzzles, pocket calendars, coupons to video stores, blue candles, and even mini blue soaps make great favor ideas.

Pull all of these free ideas together and you are sure to have a wonderful baby shower.

Just remember, the most important part is having a great time. With great laughs, tasty food, and some fun activities, your boy baby shower theme is sure to be a blast for everyone.
