Baby on Board Baby Shower Games
Capture the spirit of summer with fun and tropical-themed baby shower games. One game idea is Beach Ball Baby Names, where you toss around a beach ball and write baby name suggestions on each panel. Put your creative skills to the test with the Sandcastle Challenge, where teams compete to build the best baby-themed sandcastle using toy buckets and molds. Add some excitement to the shower with the Guess the Due Date Calendar, designed to look like a surfboard or beach towel and allow guests to make predictions. Ready to hit the shore? Hide small seashells with baby-related words or prizes written inside for guests to find in the Seashell Scavenger Hunt. And for some beachy brain-teasers, don't miss the Tropical Trivia Game that will test your knowledge of baby-related fun facts and/or famous coastal destinations. These games will keep the energy high and make the baby shower feel like a true summer celebration for everyone to enjoy.
Baby on Board Baby Shower Decorations
Bring your baby shower theme to life by filling your party space with Baby on Board-themed decorations. Let's start with the first thing guests will see as they enter the party – the welcome sign. Instead of a generic Welcome Baby sign, go for something fun and unique. A surfboard-designed sign with the words Baby on Board - Catch the Wave! will set the perfect tone and get everyone excited for the beachy festivities ahead. Balloons and banners in shades of ocean blue, sandy beige, and sunset orange will add pops of color and create a fun, beachy atmosphere. Hang them from the ceiling or use them as the backdrop for a photo booth.

Speaking of photo booths, you can set up a backdrop with a tropical scene, complete with palm trees, waves, and maybe even a few flamingos. Add oversized sunglasses, surfboards, and flower leis as props, and watch as your guests strike fun poses and capture unforgettable memories. For the table centerpieces, mini surfboards, sand-filled jars with candles, or even pineapple and coconut arrangements will bring a whimsical touch and tie into the overall theme. Add beach umbrellas and lounge chairs to the seating areas to enhance the beachy vibe. Lastly, scatter seashells, starfish, and tropical leaves on tables and around the venue to fully immerse guests in the summer setting.

Plan a vibrant and delicious spread that celebrates the start of a new chapter, befitting of your Baby on Board baby shower. For snacks, you can indulge in tropical fruit skewers – a colorful and healthy option that tastes like a bite of paradise. The combination of pineapple, mango, watermelon, and kiwi is a burst of flavors that will transport you to a tropical island. And for a more filling option, mini Hawaiian sliders, made with teriyaki chicken and grilled pineapple, are perfect for satisfying those cravings. You can also prepare coconut shrimp and beach-themed deviled eggs topped with tiny edible umbrellas, adding a playful touch to the menu.

Of course, no shower is complete without a sweet treat. Serve some seashell sugar cookies, pineapple upside-down cupcakes, and an ocean wave cake, decorated with blue frosting. Each of these desserts is not only delicious but also beautifully ties into the beachy theme of the party. As for drinks, a summer splash punch made with pineapple juice, coconut water, and a splash of soda is a refreshing and non-alcoholic option. And for the non-pregnant guests, there's the mocktail pina coladas, frozen lemonade, and watermelon slushies – all perfect for keeping guests cool and satisfied.
