There are some people out there that plan a baby shower and never even consider a theme. Often they will say it is much easier to not worry about the theme. However, the end result of planning a baby shower without a theme is a big mismatch of unorganized stuff. The person without a theme simply goes out and buys whatever catches their interest. They buy the cake flavor they like, the decorations that caught their eye, and the baby shower centerpiece that looked fun. This will often lead to a disorganized feel for the event.

By taking a little tie and planning a theme before starting anything else on the baby shower planning you will start way ahead of the game. It will ensure that the baby shower is a wonderful, well planned and thought out event that everyone will really enjoy. Beside it can be a lot of fun to create a them.

Some simple tips before taking on any of these themes:

* Enlist the help of other friends. More minds = more ideas = more helping hands
* Take the time and plan ahead
* Loosen up a bit and have fun with the theme.

So now let's continue on to the good stuff. Here are a list in alphabetical order of possible theme for your next baby shower.

Stars- Everyone know that the new born baby will for sure be the star of the family. Why not put together a baby shower with a star theme. You can purchase fun confetti stars from a local party store to spread out on the table and cut out some larger starts to adorn the walls with.

The Stork - You can always have a fun theme using a stork that brings in a newborn baby. Again you can find things at a local party store, and on the Internet for this theme.

Storybook/Movie Characters - If you have a favorite character from a movie or children's storybook this can make a great theme also. For example a classic Winnie the Pooh can make great decorations and a fun theme. Have your baby shower in the 100-acre forest and make some fun pots of honey to decorate the walls or the tables with.

Stuffed Animals - Since one of the first toys that a baby will often lay with is a stuffed animal these can make very practical and fun decorations. You do not even have to buy all new stuffed animals or teddy bears. Simply borrow some from friends. Also your local craft or party store will most likely have some small teddy bear party favors that can be used. For a fun centerpiece put the stuffed animals in a small circle facing out and tie balloons to each one.

Prince/Princess - It seems like every new baby loves attention and being the little prince or princess of the house. Why not build on this and have prince or princess theme for the baby shower. Some fun decorations like small castle walls, and a crown would fit well with purple (royal color) tablecloths and balloons.

While these are just a few of the ideas that you can use and you might not find exactly what you are looking for the idea is to start your own imagination rolling. You want to be creative and have fun with the theme. By thinking about it and choosing something you like the theme will come together faster. Remember to relax, eave yourself enough time to complete the task and plan with friends. If you follow these simple steps and read the suggestions above you are sure to have a wonderful baby shower.
