Planning a baby shower can be a fun and exciting time. Getting the food, making the arrangements, and hanging the decorations can all be a great part of the party. To make the party special, you will also want to have some great baby shower favors to pass out to the guests. This will give everyone a special place in the heart of the new baby.

There are an endless number of possibilities in order to find great baby shower favors that are appropriate for your party. Some of the most commonly used ideas are candles, notepads, bath items, gift certificates, and pictures. A lot of people will also buy baby bottles and fill them with candy. Two things that you will want to consider when planning baby shower favors is the guests and the theme of the party.

You can come up with very creative ways to match the theme of the party. If you are having a tea party themed baby shower for girl, you can buy a toy tea set and fill the plastic cups with candy. Or if you are having a sport themed shower for a boy, you can give out pictures that look like baseball cards. Fun ideas like these are what will set your baby shower favors apart from the rest.

Another popular baby shower favor is a personalized keepsake you make yourself. Using a color printer and a simple computer graphics program, you can print labels that can be applied to lip balm jars, mint tins, magnets, and soap wrappers.

Miniatures are a recurring theme for baby showers – after all, a baby is a miniature human, and part of the appeal of baby things is their tiny size. Send your guests home with common baby items in miniature sizes, like pacifiers, baby bottles, or even little baby dolls.

Your baby shower guests have taken time from their busy schedules to shop for a gift and come to the shower. Giving your guests baby shower party favors will help communicate to them how much you appreciate their taking the time and effort to celebrate the new baby.
