How do I keep adults entertained at a children’s birthday bbq?

My boyfriend and I are not having a baby shower, just a BBQ after the baby is born. His co-workers son turns 1 the same day we are having the BBQ, so we chose to combine the two occasions.

It is going to be pretty informal for the most part. Grill out on the BBQ, play some music, have some drinks, some games for the kids (water balloons, sidewalk chalk, water guns, bubbles, etc). Any suggestions on keeping the adults entertained? What else for the kids?

Thanks!
Oh yeah, there should be anywhere from 20-50 people that attend throughout the day.
I like the thought of cards, maybe dice, too. Horseshoes would be excellent, too!

We sometimes have cards, or bocce ball, horseshoes. Otherwise, adults can pretty much have a excellent time just hanging out.

baby shower prize thoughts

Babies are so much fun. But baby games shower are much more fun since moms-to-be, godparents, grandparents, and other invitees in the baby shower can get to play childish games again. Some of the baby game shower that can be played include Sing It, Baby!, Measuring up Mommy, Here’s Looking at You, Kid!, Don’t Say Baby, Baby Truth or Dare,  The Seventh Gift,  and Dig out the Pins.

These baby games are the common baby game showers usually played. They are a fantastic way that would let the guests mingle and get to know each other, if they aren’t acquainted yet. This is also another fantastic way to give honor to the mom-to-be for having that precious baby on the way.

How do we play these baby game showers? Here is the run-down on how to play the baby game shower and make excellent memories of a fantastic baby shower.

In Sing It, Baby!, the guests participants form a circle. They can sit or stand. Then, each guest must sing a line or two from a song that has the word “baby” in it. When the first game player has finished, the next person seated on her right has ten seconds to sing another “baby” song. “Baby” songs cannot be repeated, thus, participants who repeat a song or cannot reckon of a “baby” song gets booted out of the game. Last person singing in this baby game shower wins the prize!

How huge has mommy become? Measuring Up Mommy is the baby game shower to play as this gives the guests the freedom to measure mommy’s size. Have a couple of toilet paper rolls ready and question each participant to estimate the size of mommy’s girth by cutting the toilet paper to their guess size. Then each one wraps around the new mommy’s stomach the toilet paper they cut. The nearest length approximating to the mommy’s stomach wins the prize!

Remember how you looked when you were a baby? This game takes you down memory lane as you need to dig up those baby pictures of yours. Because you need them to play the baby game shower Here’s Lookin’ At You, Kid! Before the party itself, request all the guests coming to bring the cutest baby picture of themselves. Upon their arrival, secure each baby picture and assign a number per picture. During the game, lay all baby pictures and give each participant paper and pen and question them to identify as many baby pictures as they can. The guest with the most number of right guesses is the huge winner.

This baby game shower makes you NOT say what you are suppose to be attending to! The game Don’t Say Baby is precisely that! Don’t say “baby” during the entire length of the baby game shower for the diaper pin that was given to you upon your arrival will be taken away from you. The person with the most number of diaper pins collected at the end of the shower party wins a prize.

This baby game shower is for those who like baby trivia and the like. Play Baby Truth or Dare by writing down some baby trivia, some right and others purposely written incorrectly. During the baby game shower, question randomly if the baby facts are either right or fake. Those who guess correctly gets a prize while those who don’t will be dared to perform in front of everyone else.

We all know that the single lady who catches the bride’s wedding bouquet is said to become the next bride. In The Seventh Gift, it is not so much a baby game shower but more of a fable that says that the giver of the seventh gift unwrapped will be the next expecting mother. But, avoid “planting” the seventh gift.

Last but not the least, Dig Out the Pins is the baby game shower that tests the agility of the guests as they fish out the most number of diaper pins from a large bowl filled with uncooked rice and diaper pins in under two minutes. The participant that has the most number of pins brings home the prize.

Fundraiser Favor thoughts?

I’m trying to reach out to my networks, beyond local friends and family, to donate money for a charity that I’m doing their annual Walk fundraiser. For the local people, I did a bake sale and it was a hit. But somehow I want to offer something fun for the people that donate remotely. I was thinking of saying “I’ll send you flowers for your kind donation” and send a TY card with a package of flower seeds with a joke saying “Told you I’d send gorgeous flowers, but it takes work to make life gorgeous…and it started with your donation. Thanks!”

Any other thoughts that would be excellent to mail? I thought cookie mix, but I really want to try to keep these packages flat so I don’t go broke trying to raise money for another cause. I could do small homemade baggies of cookie mix, but could use more advice and creativity on that.

Any other thoughts that you’ve seen in bridal/baby showers or other events that could help me?

Thanks in advance!

Make a postcard with a photo of the person or thing that they helped, and place a thank you note and explanation on the back. Ex: Today you helped save this park for the children of Town, State. Today you went us one step closer towards the cure for breast cancer. Postcards are cheap to mail, and it is something like what Defenders of Wildlife does when you donate.

So, you want to host a fantastic party, but you have limited funds. Can it be done? The answer is ABSOLUTELY!!!

There are numerous ways that you can cut costs when plotting a shower. Perhaps the simplest way is to split the hostess duties among several friends. Homemade
food, favors, and invitations are another way to make things less expensive. The time of day you have the shower may also influence the cost. A mid-afternoon party with cake, punch, and light snacks is much less expensive than a dinner or a spa afternoon. Having the party at a restaurant may be less expensive if the guests all know each other and are willing to pay for their own meals. This may be somewhat awkward, though, so it certainly is a plot that will only fit certain situations.

Handmade invitations are a very simple way to cut corners. With a computer, a printer, and cardstock or specialty paper, you can make invitations that will look practically professional. Or you can choose to make a crafty invitation that perfectly complements your theme. Another option for invitations is to email invitations. Sites like sendomatic allow you to send invitations and maps, track responses, and even send weather reports for the huge day for less than $15 dollars for 100 invitations. Sending email invitations saves on the buy of invitations, as well as the postage.

Food for a shower can be very simple. If you have an early afternoon party that falls after lunch but before dinner, you can serve cake, punch, mints, nuts, and perhaps a fruit tray very inexpensively. The presentation is often more vital than the actual food that is served. Use nice bowls and silver for a formal atmosphere. If you do not have crystal or silver, you can usually get plastic that looks like crystal and silver and will still look nice. Finger sandwiches also add an elegant touch and are inexpensive and simple to prepare. If you want a more casual feel to the shower, a vegetable platter and chips and dips are always welcome. Or get everyone in on the act and question each person attending to bring a snack. You might want to have a sign up sheet, though, so that you don’t end up with 5 bags of chips.

Believe it or not, even if you don’t consider yourself a baker, there are several alternatives to expensive bakery cakes. Cupcakes are very simple, and sugar or plastic decorations in baby themes are honestly simple to find. You can also use frosting to “glue” small plastic baby decorations to the tops of Small Debbie snack cakes. These are precious, and they look like you spent a lot of time. Another option is to skip the traditional decorated cake, altogether, and go for individual cheesecakes (simple to make in muffin tins) or a tasty chocolate cake (make sure that the mom-to-be isn’t avoiding chocolate first). Cookies can make a fantastic sweet treat also, and there are some really cute cookie cutters readily available. Finally, if you reckon you can make and frost a rectangular cake but are concerned about trying to do fancy decorations, you can find edible cake art images online. These are simple to apply to the top of the cake, and they are the same images used by bakeries.

Many of the games and activities for a baby shower are free. There are printouts available online if you want to play games like bingo. While party favors are a nice touch for a shower, they certainly are not necessary. A personal thank you, in person or written, is all that is necessary to thank the guests for attending.

Throwing a baby shower is a wonderfully generous thing to do. It does not, but, have to break the bank. Remember, the most vital thing when hosting a shower is to make wonderful memories for your friend. Years from now she will remember the laughter and the thoughtfulness of her friends more than she will remember fancy favors or expensive cakes.

baby shower activities thoughts

Once the invitations for a baby shower have been sent out, it is excellent to look into the next step. Will your guests be doing any fascinating activity or will they be bored and wish to go back home. It is therefore very vital to choose on baby shower crafts. They keep the guests busy having fun as they get in the mood to have a relaxed time. Your craft thoughts can come from various sources. Firstly, the internet is a rich ground for such thoughts. Secondly, you can learn from friends. Question them what they would delight in doing and you will be surprised at how people are creative. It is excellent to engage in crafts that are in your reach. There is no need to reckon of too expensive or complicated crafts.

While deciding on the crafts, it is excellent to consider the various ages of people that will participate. If there are children, they would not appreciate hard crafts and others are too childish for grownups. This should not be a serious time so, find a way in which the two age groups can meet in the middle and have a fun time. Place small stress on the mother to be. Even if a craft item goes missing, deal with it without panicking. Make sure that everyone is comfortable. If the refreshments are not enough, make sure they are immediately replaced. People delight in crafts more when there is food and fun. Do not be too hard if someone messes up the craft; have fun and laugh at mistakes.

Some of the baby shower craft thoughts are; drawing tiny names of the unborn baby as gifts are being opened. This can release so much creativity as everyone tries to out do each other with the best and cutest writings. Another craft is to deep fingers in safe paint and hand print the gifts. The kids like this kind of craft and it is fun to do. Another craft is having baby poems written on papers and have them framed. This is commonly done by siblings. The poems can also be read out loud for the guests to delight in. Grownups can engage in telling baby tales and their experiences. When people are engaging in something that is fun, time flies so quick and the shower becomes a success.

Scrap booking is always a excellent craft to engage in where you focus on the unborn child. Another thing that is very loved by many is taking goofy photos. Everyone’s picture is taken without their knowledge and then shown later as people engage in making fun of the person caught unaware. Later, serious photographs are taken to remember the cherished day. With so much crafts to do, you will find out there is no time for more and your guests are disappointed to leave the party. This means that the baby shower was a huge success. A party like this should end on a high note. The parents to the unborn child should be pleased and thankful. It is  a fantastic time taken to anticipate the incredible new life into the world.

baby shower verses for favors
