Baby Shower Party Favors

Writen by Gail Leino

Baby Shower Party Favors add another dimension to the Shower festivities. Some will carry on the theme of the party, others will just be more eclectic and fun items to act as a souvenir of the day. Some Baby Shower Party Favors that have been tried and proved to be liked include:

Scented votive candles, decorated with circles of pink/blue/green or even yellow tulle and ribbon make a great smelling favor. To make it a specific baby-shower item, feel free to glue on miniature baby bottles, teddy bears, pacifiers, or rattles to fit the color theme.

A Winnie the Pooh shower with Baby Shower Party Favors that relate to the various Pooh characters can also be fun. Consider these:

  • Pooh - Pots (or bottles) of honey, with gingham cloths or ribbons to tie to the color theme
  • Rabbit - A pack or two of gardening seeds, carrots would be great (of course) because they can be grown indoors all season long!
  • Eeyore - Bath soaps or salts to soak his tired worn down bones would be a perfect thought – he's blue so make the soaps or salts the same.
  • Tigger - Because Tiggers like to bounce it needs to be something with a lot of spring to it. Perhaps a slinky, a bouncy ball of some sort, or anything along those lines.
  • Piglet - Piglet is afraid of everything, so think about a candle or a nightlight to keep him safe from the dark.
  • Kanga & Roo - Kanga is the perfect mom, always making yummy treats for little Roo, so a baking pan or cookie cutters would be perfect.
  • Edibles are always good party favors. Think about fancy little truffles or chocolates in the miniature boxes, tulle bags, or wrapped in pretty colored netting and tied with a bow. Boxes of microwave popcorn saying "She's about to Pop!" or gourmet coffee or tea with a note saying "A baby is brewing!" can also be a lot of fun.
