Baby Time Shower

a baby time shower covers everything a new mom needs around the clock

Assign each guest a time in the typical day of a baby and mother, and ask her to bring a gift appropriate for that time of day.  With this type of shower, there should be a variety of gifts with minimal duplicates, but each guest will still have an opportunity to choose a gift she likes that fits her budget.  If you have lots of guests, you could assign the same time to more than one guest.  Here are some examples of “times” and gift suggestions for each one: 

Feeding Time – high chair, bibs, burp cloths, bottles, feeding sets, nursing accessories

Time for a Change – diaper bag, diaper cake, changing table, diapering accessories

Bed Time or Nap Time – bassinette, Moses basket, sleepers, nightlight, crib accessories

Bath Time – baby bathrobe, hooded towels, washcloths, baby bathtub, bath toys

Play Time – toys, baby gym, play mat, playpen

Time to go– stroller, car seat, baby carrier or sling, shopping cart cover, outfits, shoes

Quality time – receiving blankets, books, baby CD’s

Mommy time – candles, skin care items, spa basket, pampering items 

A fun game to play at this shower would be Baby Beat the Clock.  Divide the guests into two or three teams.  Give one person from each team a list of about ten baby terms.  That person will then give their team clues to guess each word.  Use a timer or stopwatch to limit each team to 60 seconds.  The team that gets the most points wins.  You could have a second or third round if time permits or if necessary to determine a winner.  You could mix things up by including names of celebrity parents or titles of baby themed movies.  You could also make the game more challenging by having the clue givers act out or draw their clues.  Just be sure to give each team a mix of relatively easy and more difficult terms to guess so that it will be a fair game.
