5 Great Tips for an Amazing Baby Shower

1.     Have each friend offer parenting advice to the new mom from their own experience or what their parents did for them. This will create great conversations.

2.     Bring a book instead of a card. Interactive board books are great for babies but don’t forget the classics for when they get older. Here are some great suggestions:

 
 
 
 
Going to Sleep on the Farm
By Wendy Cheyette Lewison, Juan Wijngaard
 
Where's the Owl?
By Nosy Crow
 
 

3.     Serve cupcakes instead of a large cake, more people will actually eat them.

4.     Avoid serving punch…no one really likes it. Focus on a glass container of flavored water, consider lemon, cucumber, raspberries, mint, lime or whatever you like. It looks fancy, refreshing and delicious. If coffee is on the menu, order high quality beans at Wild Rivers Coffee Company and give back to conservation all at the same time. Your guest will really taste the difference!

5.     Focus on the mom, make her feel special, and make the conversations all about her! Try to fit in prayer sometime during the baby shower, this will help put her at ease for her upcoming delivery and becoming a mom.

I’m a wife of 37 years, a mom to three grown daughters, and a grandma to my five precious granddaughters. I love Jesus and want to share all I can with young Moms about Him. He is the secret to my family’s success hands-down, and it’s my passion to teach this to you through my Christian children’s books, Front Parking Spot podcast, and speaking engagements.

Teaching is at my core. I was an elementary education teacher for 23 years, so when I have the opportunity to do an author visit, it is a full engagement opportunity for everyone in the classroom.

My goal in what I do each day is to inspire Moms worldwide to reach the potential that God has entrusted to them within themselves and their families.
