Baby Shower Favors

There are so many possibilities when it comes to baby shower favors.
Baby shower favors can be used to playat the shower, as well as for prizes when a guest wins one of the games.

Fill a baby bottle full of jelly beans – don’t forget to count how many jelly beans fit into the bottle! Have your guests write down their guesses as to how many jelly beans are in the bottle. The winners get to keep the bottle full of jelly beans as their baby shower favors. This game can also be played using other candies or Qtips! And really, what’s more adorable than a baby bottle full of brightly colored candies?

There is no rule that says the baby shower favors can’t be useful. Use your creativity to come up with great ideas for baby shower favors for your guest to take home with them. Bookmarks, letter openers, key chains and egg timers are all useful baby shower favors. Even the bath and beauty industry has managed to get into the groove and started offering baby shower favors in the form of soaps and candles.

A cute idea for baby shower favors is small picture frames. You can take pictures of each guest with the new mommy-to-be and then send a copy to the guest to put in the frame.You could also send baby’s first picture to each guest for the frame.

Homemade cookies make great baby shower favors, too. Even if the host isn’t the greatest baker, there is bound to be someone in the family or on the guest list that can help out by baking up some yummy cookies. Wrap them in pink, blue, yellow or green cellophane and tie them with coordinating ribbon and attach a small Thank You note. No one will turn down fresh baked cookies!

A newer idea for baby shower favors is a more environmentally aware gift. Place some flower seeds in a glassine bag and fold the top down. Using a hole punch, put two holes in the top of the bag and lace a colorful ribbon through the holes to tied it closed.

Cupcakes also make great baby shower favors. Decorate the cupcakes to match the baby shower cake or the theme of the party. The cupcakes can be the same flavor as the cake or a flavor to compliment the cake. Package them in pastel colored Chinese takeout boxes with a Thank You note attached by coordinating ribbon.
