Baby shower is a term imported from the United States that refers to a very special party celebrated one or two months before the baby's arrival. It is a gathering with close friends and family to celebrate the baby's arrival.
At Petite Marmotte, we love to celebrate, and we think organizing a baby shower for your baby is a great idea. Sometimes baby showers are a surprise, but other times the mother herself organizes it, and it's becoming increasingly popular to create a baby registry for your baby. It's similar to a wedding registry but with products that the parents have carefully selected and truly need to prepare for the baby's arrival. The most practical option!

In today's post, we tell you everything you need to know to organize the best baby shower: how to create the perfect atmosphere, what the best gifts are... read on to find out!
Below are some ideas; I hope they help if you're thinking of organizing a baby shower:
1) Send a WhatsApp invitation, similar to the famous "Save the Dates" for weddings. Using new technologies, you can create something cool to send to your guests.
2) Decoration: Choose a color scheme and find items in those shades. White is always a safe bet, and you know we're fans of mint green, perhaps combined with gray and white.
Nowadays, it's easy to find cool things without spending a lot of money. You can check stores like Tiger or Hema.
3) Message balloon: This is what we typically see in movies with the "It's a boy" or "It's a girl" message. It doesn't have to be those specific balloons, but I recommend putting some up because they add a lot to the decoration and make for cool photos afterward. I discovered a store called The Milkshake room that has an endless variety of adorable balloons!
4) Make a group gift among all friends or family. Lately, you've bought many baby nests as gifts for baby shower parties, and we love the idea. It's a practical, special gift that she will remember her entire life because, thanks to the baby nest, she will share precious moments with her baby and it will help her baby sleep.

Other great baby shower gift ideas are personalized products. How about pyjamas with the baby's name embroidered? Or a decorative cushion with their name? A personalized muslin swaddle is also always a hit!
5) Make some crafts for a keepsake:
- What do you think of this picture with the names of the attendees?
- Another idea could be to make animal-shaped cards and have each attendee leave a message for the future baby. I think it's a beautiful keepsake, and I'm sure it will bring a tear to more than one person's eye...
I hope you liked these ideas!
If you're thinking of organizing a baby shower and want your guests to choose the right gifts, we recommend creating a baby registry. By creating a list, you can choose the items you need, and we'll also be happy to advise you on selecting the best for welcoming your baby.
Do you have in mind the people you want to participate? We'll take care of sending them a lovely email to invite them! It's super easy and convenient: the invitation they receive will lead them directly to your list, where they can see, ordered by price, the products you have selected. A guaranteed success!
