Every Culture Have Different Way To Celebrate Baby Shower
for mother, baby showers can be a moment who have lot of fun with her friends, its time a chance for mother to have celebrating the new life and to "shower" the mother-to-be with love and many gifts, as we know that every culture has had ways to celebrating the first or beginning of a mother pregnancy.
Usually those gifts were given to the mother after the baby was born. Mother was often just making a tea party for the mother and her close female family or relatives. The gifts who will receive is generally handmade and almost always very practical and usually they would have a shower party when the just for first baby in family, the one that first make the “mother-to-be” into a mother. And there would usually be just one party given for that baby.
Now, not only are baby showers often given for subsequent children joining the family, but the mother is often “showered” more than once, by various groups: work, church, relatives, etc. They are often planned to include both men and women the pregnant couple knows. It can be very sophisticated and elegant, or is can be much more casual.
Showers today usually only last a few hours and are often held at a restaurant or someone’s home. The shower is often held prior to the birth by a month or two, which is usually early enough even if the baby decides to come a bit early. This extra time gives the mother time to exchange duplicate gifts and buy anything else she feels she still needs but didn’t get at the shower.
Usually there will be food of some sort at the baby shower. There is also generally a cake – which is often the centerpiece on the table; it can be a simple sheet cakes, or something much more unique and elaborate. There are many ideas available for creative cakes that tie in perfectly with the theme of the baby shower. It is a good idea to choose a theme and plan for the cake at the same time, before announcing the details of the shower to the mother and guests. This way, the host can be sure they have a cake that ties in well with their theme and isn’t struggling at the last minute to find a suitable cake.
Hosting a baby shower doesn’t have to be expensive, as the budget can dictate where and how the party will be held. A more expensive event does not mean that the mother-to-be is more loved, or that it will be more fun. A shower can be a lot of fun without being expensive if you are having a theme that can tie the party together. While some scoff at games being “silly”, they can be great for breaking the ice among people who may not know each other and can also help the various generations relate more to one another. Besides, when else is playing silly games socially acceptable? Enjoy planning and attending the baby shower, and remember that the memories are the important part. Read More..
