shower etiquette which we have answered and which may be of

Shower Etiquette
Is it necessary or in fact a good idea to have
games at a baby shower?
Games break down any barriers or awkwardness if the guests do
not know each other, but they are not essential to a baby shower.
Check with the mom how she feels about including games which involve
her. If in doubt just have one or two games with small gifts as
prizes for the winners.
In the mean time take a look at the shower
games suggestionsshown on this site.
Food, drink and conversation are the basic ingredients of a baby
shower. However, it is usually the games which make the event memorable.
Games are usually best if they are generally related to babies.
It is also a nice idea to have a book where each guest can write
down one piece of advice, to the new mom (and pop) this will not
only be a thoughtful gift but will also be very useful to the new
parents in the months and years to come.
