Fall Baby Shower Decorations

Incorporate fall colors into the color scheme of the shower and carry throughout the party supplies, tableware, linens, etc. For a table centerpiece, carve and hollow out a medium-sized pumpkin, or purchase a small green basket. Add a large bouquet of yellow, orange, and red flowers like sunflowers and dahlias. Miniature pumpkins and sprigs of fresh cranberries also make lovely decorations and party favors! Place them all around the room for a festive look at your fall baby shower.

Fall Baby Shower Games

Have everyone bring a baby picture of themselves dressed up in a Halloween costume. It will be fun to guess who was dressed up as a sunflower and who was dressed up as a ladybug! You can also do a contest to see who guesses the actual birth date — just get a big calendar (or make one yourself), and have guests put their name on the date that they think the new addition will be delivered. They can also birth weight and gender. The guests who come closest win a prize (gift cards are easy to email to guests after the baby is born).
