20 Baby Shower Themes

Looking for baby shower themes? Look no farther. If the extensive list below doesn’t hold the right shower for you, it is certain to spark the ideas that will get you there on your own!

Cowboy

Cowboy baby shower themes work well for boys and girls. Just adjust the colors of the hats and bandanas to the appropriate gender. This theme is great, because décor is easily found under normal circumstances, inexpensive and it comes with a ready made menu for food service.

Spaceman

Throw an out of this world shower! Pick an astronaut theme for the brainiac to be!

What Will I Be When I Grow Up?

Each new baby has so much potential. Make your party buzz around this theme. Give each guest an occupation theme that their gift should highlight. This will give mom loads of cute clothing and imaginative toys.

Peter Pan

No mom ever wants to think of her baby growing up.  Help mom escape to Neverland with her baby by throwing a Peter Pan themed party.

Disney

Classic Disney is great for baby shower themes.  You can choose from mouse and duck duos to other classic characters like Chip and Dale.  These themes can be ideal for mothers expecting twins.

If Disney is great, but the older characters are not for your mommy to be, then update the theme with new characters. Mulan, Buzz and Woody or Tiana are ideal for mothers who grew up in the 80s or later.

Books

Is mom a real book worm? Are her clothing needs already met? Then a baby book shower might be just the ticket.  The decorations can be children’s books of every size and color, while the gifts will help mom start her own collection of baby books to share with her child.

Princess

Is the baby to come a girl?  Then a shower themed as a royal coronation is not out of order.  Mom can sit in an honorary throne and be the center of all things princess.

Birds

Birds are the new ‘in’ animal. Penguins, owls and many other birds are filling movie theaters and toy store shelves.  You can capitalize on this by throwing a baby shower for the birds. 

Abandon traditional themes and just have fun since this Baby shower is for the birds!

Natural

Is your momma planning on using only natural and organic baby products?  Get her off to a roaring start by having an organic, natural baby shower theme.  Complete the theme with cloth diapers and the name that candy bar poopy diaper game.

Blankies and Bedding

Have a pajama party! Baby will spend lots of time sleeping and spitting up on those sheets, blankies and everything else. Pamper mom with new pj’s for herself and her baby. Then pile on the extra baby blankets and crib sheets so that laundry will not have to a several times a day event.
