For an elegant baby shower idea, hold an English tea party. This theme is popular for baby and bridal showers. Serve a variety of teas to your guests. Then look in an overseas cookbook for favorite English recipes, your local library or bookstore will carry these. To add some English flavor to your party have a high tea where ladies are required to wear hats and bring out your best linen: accent with fresh flowers. Perhaps a group gift could include a lovely baby pram.

Choosing a theme for the shower helps to plan all of the details from the invitations to the decorations, tableware to the food. A baby shower idea can be as general as “teddy bears,” “carnival,” “Noah’s Ark,” or “storks.” Other themes can revolve around gift ideas to help the new parents stock their nursery.

Whatever you choose as your baby shower idea, try to include a game for the guests to play.Guess the baby food: Cover up labels on jars of baby food, number them and keep track of which was which on a piece of paper. Guests guess whether each jar is mashed pea or asparagus, etc. One who guesses most correctly wins!
