BABY SHOWER GAME:

Instead of the Diaper Pin Game, how about Stick the Lips on the Celebrity?

Enlarge

the selected celebrity's picture to poster size. Go to your

dollar store and purchase lip shaped stickers. Using the same pin

the tail on the donkey game rules, you will have a fun, new creative

version of this well loved game.

Spa Day for the MOM TO BE:

Combine the Celebrity theme with Pampering and you

will have a sure party hit on your hands. Arrange a Spa day with

facials, manicures, pedicures, makeup and wrap it up with a photo

shoot. When you haven't seen your toes in months a Spa Day will be

appreciated for the Mom To Be and the guests will have fun too.

Tips on Decorating:

Continuing the Celebrity theme, pull out all the stops and go red carpet fun all the way.

Make

the Mother to Be's chair the center of attention by decorating it with

fabric and stars. Add tulle and lights around the gift table and

the cake table. It will surely bring attention to your wonderful Diaper

Cake centerpiece.

Some flashy sun glasses, a dollar store tiara and a feather boa will wrap up the glam for the Mom to Be!

Get the

kids involved, have them blow bubbles and be the Mom's personal

assistant for the day, getting her food, beverages and anything else she

needs.

PARTY TIPS:

Encourage the guests to follow the theme, they can dress up in

their best finery adding furs, feathers and bling. You could even

organize someone to act as the paparazzi, taking photo's.
