Let us stick with tradition that is here to stay and that is celebrating the birth of a new born infant and the baby shower party to recognize his/her forthcoming presence.
On receiving the good news about the pregnancy friends and family gather to offer their congratulations and fuss over the parents-to-be. But the fussing does not end there, more fuss to come when organizing a baby shower celebration.
If the baby shower is properly planned then you will wonder what all the fuss about.
A good time to throw a baby shower is at least a couple of months before the due date of the new arrival. Remember there are some cultures that do not practise celebrating in a baby shower because of their beliefs where they believe it is bad luck before the infants birth.
Why all the excitement over the new born where baby showers are in order to celebrate babys being.
Think about it, you dont get a second chance because you never have the same baby twice. So do it in style and join in the fun for every new edition to the family.
Making plans for baby shower food is very important. You will want the decoration theme and invitations perfect. But perfection on the day stays with the spread you lay on the table.
You have your little prince/princess on the way now it is time to lay a feast fit for king/queen.
Popular table fillers are Sandwiches Chips/fries Pies (pizzas.) Pasta Dessert (cakes, cookies, ice cream, jelly.) Drinks (punch, juice, wine.) These are just a few ideas and choices are endless but it is up to you what you have on the day Consider a sit down meal for all the invited guests at the baby shower, remember this is about timing. Make sure to properly map out your list of duties and get the scheduling of the meal right, if not expect your plans to go all topsy turvy.
An easier option is snacks, just as appetizing and filling and less dishes to wash if served on disposable plates. Finger sandwiches filled with different pates, sliced chicken or turkey with fresh salad. Dips of different flavours go down well.
If your theme for the baby party is of a Disney character then work around this with a baby shower cake made up of the cartoon figure which you will find makes a fabulous centrepiece also.
Remember a pretty table makes pretty eating. Decorate the table with baby items cuddly toys, confetti, candy.
It is good to know a more intimate side to your guest then this will give you an idea what food to serve e.g. if vegetarian no steak if on a diet no cakes.
Draw the line on how intimate you get because this baby shower is about THIS BABY not any future ones.
