Make a Zoo Themed Baby Shower with These Decorating Ideas
Create a Fun and Festive Environment
A zoo themed baby shower is a great way to welcome the newest member of your family. With a few simple decorations, you can create a unique and enjoyable atmosphere for the mom-to-be and her guests. Here are some ideas for making your baby shower a success.
Invitations and Centerpieces
To set the tone for a zoo themed baby shower, start with the invitations and centerpieces. Choose invitations that feature animals, such as monkeys, elephants, lions, giraffes, or zebras. You can also use baby animal images, such as ducklings or chicks. For the centerpieces, you can use stuffed animals, flower arrangements that feature animals, or balloons in the shape of animals.
Party Favors
Party favors are a great way to thank your guests for attending the baby shower. Consider giving out animal-shaped chocolates, zoo-themed key chains, stuffed animals, or animal-print bags. You can also opt for a more practical option and give out baby items such as diapers, onesies, or bibs.
Games and Activities
To make the baby shower even more fun, you can organize a few games and activities. Have guests try to guess the animal by its sound or play a game of “Name That Animal.” You can also have a “baby animal matching game” or a “name the baby animal” contest. For a more interactive activity, have guests create their own stuffed animals using fabric and stuffing.
Food and Drink
To complete the zoo themed baby shower, serve food and drinks that feature animals. You can make animal-shaped sandwiches, cupcakes, cookies, or chocolates. For drinks, you can serve “zoo juice” with animal-shaped ice cubes or lemonade with animal-shaped straws. Of course, you can also serve traditional baby shower snacks and beverages.
