Guess the Goo in the Diaper game. Take several diapers and several different types of candy bars. Melt part of each candy bar into seperate diapers. Number the diapers and pass out paper for each person to write on. Each player must smell the goo in the diaper and guess what candy bar it is. It's hilarious fun.

Baby's Nursery Room

I baked a cake in a 12x15 in pan. Cut the cake in half and stack the two pieces on top of each other. Your cake should now be 6 inches wide and 15 inches long. Cut 5 inches off the end. The small piece can be used for the dresser. Cover the large piece in buttercream and then fondant. Roll out a long strip of fondant and wrap it around the bottom of the cake for the dust ruffle. You can adhere it to the mattress by using a paint brush and a little bit of water. Slightly gather it at the top to make it wavy. For the comforter, roll out a large piece of fondant. You can use an impression matt to create a pattern. Place on the bed. I rolled out a small piece of white fondant and attached it to the top of the comforter to look like sheets that were folded over. The headboard needs to be made a few days in advance so it has time to dry. Roll out your fondant and cut to the desired shape. I used a flower cutter for the cut outs. For the edge of the headboard, I rolled a thin snake with a ball on top and attached it with water. Since I live in Hawaii, I made a little flower lei and hung it around one of the posts. When the headboard is dry, attach it to the bed with some royal icing. You can use any leftover fondant to model various baby toys and accessories.

Whimsical/Elegant

A little goes a long way. I printed the invitations on vellum paper from a kit that inlcuded silver baby shoe charms attached to the top of the invitation with pink ribbon. Behind the vellum paper was pink checkered thick paper. I also hot glued plastic baby bottles and pink bows to the place cards for each place setting at the venue. I purchased and decorated my own wishing well. These types of money saving tips alows you to splurge on other things like the cake, or a nicer venue. I decorated the venue with simple yet elegant decorations of pink and silver, along with floating candles to set the ambiance in the room, and a couple of banners. The key to choosing the venue is to pick a place that is clean and on the nicer side. That way you save on decorations and it allows you to sit back and enjoy the shower rather than running the shower.

Baby Kangaroo

A friend and I threw the party at the mother-to-be's favorite buffet resturant. After eating and chatting, we played a couple of baby shower games, watched the mother open the gifts, and then enjoyed some cake. I think you can have a nice, enjoyable babyshower that everyone will like without having to go over the top. Plus, I think it depends on the mother-to-be as well.

As always, good food and a great cake are a necessity! Invite your closest friends and family. Make sure You have plenty of games. Some great games are: Guess Mom's Tummy Size, The Rice and Diaper Pins Game, The Cotton Ball Game, The Guess the Baby Game, Never say "Baby", Pass the Dirty Diaper. Register at your favorite stores so everyone will know what you need.

AFTER the baby is born

My tip would be to have the baby shower AFTER the child is born. It is bad luck to throw a party for the unborn. I dont understand why so many people do it.

Duckies and Bunnies!

I knew i was having a girl, so they decorated in pink and yellow, it was so cute with wedding mints and sparkling cider and juice, nuts and little pink bunny peeps and yellow chic peeps! instead of a cake, they made me a cupcake tower with little mini peeps sitting on top of the frosted yummies!
