Baby Shower Favors

Baby shower favors don't need to be expensive. Homemade favors are often as cute as store bought ones, and they are not hard to make. Some easy ideas are as follows:

• Candies or cookies: These can be shaped like baby items however you can also have them personalized. One great idea is to give away candy bars with a personalized wrapper in the theme of the shower.

• Candles: They can be simple, such as a regular baby powder scented candle, or they can be more detailed, such as being shaped as a rattle or bottle. If you have the time and talent you can try to make them at home. Or, if time is an issue, they can be bought from a store.

• Disposable cameras and small photo albums or picture frame: This will allow the guest to make their own record of the day. Another great idea is to give away picture frames with an IOU for the baby's picture.

• Thank you scrolls: Include a thank you from the family printed inside.

• Goody bags: These should include pink or blue candies, pens, and notepads, and pictures of the guest with the mom-to-be.

People enjoy receiving favors that are not unlike wedding favors, such as small bottles of bubbles, candy bags, and printed napkins. In some areas, the favors are for the same purpose as game prizes. They are bibs, pacifiers, chewing rings, diapers, or some other baby need. These "favors" are given to the mom-to-be by the attendees. However, it is nice to have something to take home.
