Getting ready to plan a baby shower? Are you wondering what kind of baby shower favors to hand out? Well I have some fresh ideas for baby boy party favors. We will get right into these wild ideas and help you get your creative juices flowing.
1. A First Aid Kit
Let’s face it when the mother-to-be is expecting a boy, a first aid kit is appropriate. The idea will help others be prepared and they will think of that little boy each time it comes in handy.
You can find a wonderful selection of first aid kits at modest prices on the web. www.readykor.com They have items that start as low as $1.95 and you can customize the kits to your own liking. Very Cool!
2. Tool Set
Well what woman doesn’t need her own set of tools? This is a great way to help out friends and family members as well. Then when they need to use the tools from your baby shower they will think of that little bundle of boyish joy.
You can check out your local dollar store to find a small selection of tools that can be put together in gift baskets or go online to www.ckbproducts.com. You can find a wide variety of cheap tool sets. They have a 25 piece tool set that starts at $6.18. If you buy more the price decreases.
3. A Cowboy Hat Fruit Basket
If you are from farm country then this idea is super sweet! You can buy cheap cowboy hats from your local department store and either buy your fruit from a farmers market or from the local supermarket. Arrange your fruit inside the cowboy hat and you have a sweet treat to please each person at your baby shower.
4. Rubber or Plastic Animals
Boys love creepy crawly bugs and animals. Why not give out a small packet of these plastic animals as a token of your appreciation. You can wrap them very elegant and then surprise, the contents are a bit unexpected. It is so much like a little boy to surprise unsuspecting mothers.
You can find these plastic critters at your local department store and they are moderately priced.
5. Mud Pies
Boy’s enjoy the mud and dirt so much that you can share the same with your guests. You can send them home with the ingredients for making mud pies.
You will need:
Disposable pie pans
A bag of soil or dirt
Plastic baggies
A wooden spoon
Index cards
Ribbon
You separate the dirt into baggies and seal them up. Take your pie plates and place the baggie of dirt inside and add the wooden spoon. Take ribbon preferably boy colors or themed and wrap it around the pie pan. Take your index card and write something like… Just add water for your very own authentic mud pie. Enjoy!
Be creative and you can figure out something super cute to go along with your personality.
When all else fails grab the Hand Sanitizer. Boys are always finding something so interesting that it makes mom want to run screaming for the protective bubble. Your guests can share in your delight of if it is gross my son will find it thoughts.
Planning and celebrating the birth of a baby is something that no person should ever have to miss out on regardless if it seems gross, messy, dirty, or just plain eeeeewwwwwww!
I hope my fresh spin on some old ideas have helped and if not at least got you thinking of some even better ideas for the upcoming celebration of a baby boy coming soon.
