Baby Shower Favors Shower Your Guests With Thanks

Baby shower favors are the perfect way to that your guests for their loving support. Baby shower favors are inexpensive tokens of appreciation that make your guests feel special for sharing your day.

When a woman is pregnant, her friends, family or co-workers may decide to have a baby shower in her honor. Sometimes a woman plans or helps plan her own baby shower. The shower is held several weeks before the anticipated birth of the baby. At the shower, everyone “showers” the expectant mother with useful and adorable gifts for the new baby. Often there is a wishing well for small, practical items such as baby powder, baby wipes and diaper ointment so mom has plenty on hand when baby arrives.

During the baby shower, food and beverages are served. Usually baby-related games are played and baby shower favors are given as prizes. After eating and playing games, all the women gather around the expectant mom as she opens her presents. Most moms-to-be register with a local retailer so guests know exactly what she needs for the new baby. In many instances, the expectant mother receives most of the items she needs at her baby shower including strollers, cribs, playpens and a one-month supply of diapers.

Baby shower favors express gratitude to all the guests for their generosity. You can make baby shower favors yourself, such as chocolates shaped like baby carriages. An easy way to shop for baby shower favors is checking out online retailers. The baby shower favors are delivered right to your door to minimize running around town. You can shop at your leisure and choose from thousands of baby shower favors in the comfort of your own home or office. From candles to coasters, there are many charming baby shower favors to choose from.

Taking photos is an important part of the baby shower. All your guests will be snapping pictures of the mom-to-be as she opens her presents and enjoys herself at the shower. Give out heart-shaped “New Beginnings” glass photo coasters in darling pram boxes for your guests to display a photo of you and a photo of the new baby after he or she is born.

At some showers, the expectant mother already knows the gender of her baby thanks to modern technology. If you know the baby’s gender, your baby shower can be pink or blue accordingly. Your guests will love receiving candies and other small delights in classic pram favor boxes with unique expandable bonnets.

Everybody loves to use candles to decorate their homes. Give your guests a lovely candle to proudly display and remember your baby shower. An “About To Hatch” baby chick candle is so cute everyone will want more than one. Add a touch of elegance to the occasion with “Heaven Sent” baby powder fresh frosted glass votives. Show off your sense of humor with “Bun In The Oven” candles featuring a baking bun with a wick. If you know the baby’s gender, give everyone “It’s A Girl” or “It’s A Boy” gift boxes candles with pink or blue imprinted ribbon.

Practical baby shower favors will be used by your guests long after the party ends. An “About To Hatch” kitchen egg timer in a showcase gift box will come in handy in your guests’ kitchens. Another attractive kitchen option are “It’s About Time – Baby Is Brewing” teapot-shaped timers in silver. If your guests prefer coffee, “Baby Is Brewing” coffee kits with heart scoops and personalized tags make wonderful baby shower favors.

There are many affordable baby shower favors that are thoughtful, too. Give your guests plantable baby shower favors so they remember you every time a flower grows. Adorable “Baby Is Blooming” or “Bloomin’ Bear” plantable wildflower favors are great gifts that won’t break your budget.

All of your guests will need an extra pen at some point. Decorative pens are useful baby shower favors. Give your guests the ultimate pen to remember your baby shower.
