Great Baby Shower Ideas

Give a baby shower that will not be easily forgotten. Keep it simple, but fun. A baby shower does not have to be a costly event.


Baby Shower Idea #1

Make your own flower arrangements. Be sure to prepare a special flower arrangement for the soon-to-be mom, so she can take it home with her. Start with a stylish flower dish, filled with floral foam in which to insert the flowers. Add a variety of different colored fresh or artificial flowers to the dish. As a final touch, inset a baby rattle in the center. Place the flowers on the gift table, refreshment and coffee tables.


Baby Shower Idea #2

Prepare several snack trays; one with a variety of finger sandwiches, another with healthy choices such as deli sliced turkey or smoked chicken. Simply roll each slice with a piece of Swiss cheese and place on the tray. Using a toothpick for each, add either black or green olives or both as a garnish to dress up the platter. Any kind of stuffed mushrooms are sure to please your guests. You may also want a tray of sliced fresh vegetables served with a dip placed in the center of the tray.


Baby Shower Idea #3

Plan a variety of baby shower games, such as "diaper a doll while blind-folded." All you need is a doll, a diaper and safety pins and a dark blind-fold.

For another baby shower game, empty a bag of cotton balls on the floor. Blind-fold players and have them take turns trying to pick up the cotton balls with a spoon and put the cotton balls in a basket. It will be tricky, but a lot of fun to play. Give the person with the most cotton balls in her basket a small prize.


Baby Shower Idea #4

Prepare fruit punch. Use a crystal punch bowl, fill it with fruit punch and add slices of peeled, fresh oranges to enhance the flavor of the punch.


Baby Shower Idea #5

For a really great looking gift table, use a white lace table cloth.


Baby Shower Idea #6

For easy clean-up, use disposable cups, plates and eating utensils. Choose colors that will work well with the color scheme you have chosen for your baby shower.

Other Baby Shower Ideas

• You may want to present a small gift to the very first guest. It can be anything that you choose. Use your imagination.

• Scented candles can add to the atmosphere. Use soft scents like French vanilla or floral fragrances.

• If you know the baby is a girl or boy, buy decorative balloons in the appropriate color. You may also want to hang streamers in pinks or blues. Yellow is also an attractive choice whether the baby is girl or boy. A mixture of white and yellow balloons will also work out nicely.

• Home showers are always a delight. However, if expense isn't an issue (or if there will be more people at the party than your home will fit comfortably), rent a club house at an apartment complex or community center, or even a hotel or restaurant function hall. (You may have better luck referring to your function as a "party" than as a "shower" though. Function hall coordinators know that showers tend to run long during the gift opening phase, and may not want to risk your function running into the function after yours.) For this you may want to book a limousine service for family and guests.


Warnings

Don't allow your party to become dull. Keep things rolling and have fun.

Long Island is, literally, a long island stretching eastward from New York City. The largely suburban area is approximately 115 miles long from Brooklyn and Queens at the western end, to Montauk at the easternmost point. At its widest the island is approximately 20 miles from north to south. While Long Island geographically includes Brooklyn and Queens, politically Long Island in general includes Nassau County and Suffolk County of New York State only.

The primary tourist attractions are the large number of excellent beaches along Long Island Sound to the north and especially along the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The North Fork is also home to many wineries. Other attractions include harbor towns such as Port Jefferson, where a variety of eateries and small businesses thrive in a bohemian atmosphere.

Long Island is essentially a suburban area throughout (except for the Twin Forks region, which is rural) and has few major cities.

There are many ways to get into Long Island: by plane, by train, by boat and by car. National and international airlines land and take-off at four major airports in Long Island. They are MacArthur Airport in Islip (which is a convenient regional airport centrally located on Long Island), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), which is located to the west of the Island (and New York City) in the state of New Jersey.

Long Island Railroad (LIRR) provides service to and from the New York City area to most major towns on the Island. Be aware, however, that the farther from New York City one travels, the more sporadic service becomes.

If you prefer going in by boat, there are ferries available at the north shore of Long Island Sound.

When considering using a car or limousine service, one can take into account the many controlled-access highways that run through New York City from Connecticut and New Jersey. It is advisable, however, to travel on routes that do not cross Manhattan Island (where traffic is perpetually horrendous). From New Jersey, I-278 runs across Staten Island to Brooklyn where major roads (including Route 27 and the LIE) can be reached. From Connecticut, take I-95 South to I-678 and the Throgs Neck Bridge. Once into Queens, nearly every major thoroughfare is encountered while still heading south on 278.

A convenient way to bypass most traffic is to take a car ferry from either Bridgeport, CT to Port Jefferson (on the North Shore in the center of Suffolk County) or New London, CT to Orient Point (on the North Fork).

Why use a limousine service in New York?

A limousine service can easily be substituted for a car service. The comfort and safety of having a chauffeur-driven limousine service is more valuable when traveling in and around New York. There are practically hundreds of limousine services in New York.
