Baby-shower : Follow the guide to find the ideal & original gift idea
You have been invited to a baby-shower and you don't really know what to give to the mother-to-be for this little party that celebrates the pregnancy and the arrival of the baby? Don't worry, we'll give you some ideas for original gifts to spoil the mother-to-be, who is honoured during the baby-shower.
The baby-shower: a party where the mother-to-be is honoured
This prenatal party, which comes straight from the United States, is organised around the 8th month of pregnancy to celebrate the arrival of the baby and to honour the pregnant woman. The baby-shower generally gathers only the friends of the mother-to-be, for an afternoon with the girls. During this little party, several activities are proposed and it is traditional to give a small gift to the mother-to-be.
Giving a gift that celebrates an expectant mother
You might think that the baby-shower is the ideal place to give a gift to the baby-to-be, such as a cuddly toy, layette or even toys. But in reality, it's the mother-to-be who should be pampered and showered with thoughtful attention! You need to find a present for the mother, in connection with the pregnancy and the baby's imminent arrival. Of course, it's not out of the question to give a little something for the baby-to-be, but remember to focus more on the star of the day!
Our original baby shower gift ideas
Are you looking for the perfect gift for your baby shower? We have several gift ideas for the mother-to-be that are sure to please her!
A pregnancy or birth photo session
To immortalise the pregnancy or the first days of the baby, a photo shoot with a professional is an excellent gift idea. It allows parents to create unforgettable moments, to remember the pregnancy or the birth of their baby and why not show him the photos when he is older!
A treatment to relax
During pregnancy, the body undergoes many changes. What could be more pleasant than being able to take care of it during a massage session or a treatment in a beauty salon? Choose a treatment specially designed for pregnant women. Relaxation, well-being... In short, the perfect original gift for a baby-shower!
The nappy cake
This is the original gift par excellence for a baby-shower! It's simply a cake in the shape of a cake plate made from nappies, decorated and decorated with small accessories for the future baby or the mother: bibs, clothes, dummies, beauty products... It's up to you to personalise it according to the tastes of the future mother. You'll make a splash when you arrive at the party with this gift that is both useful and original.
Personalised jewellery
Why is this a good idea? Because it's an original gift that lasts over time and has real sentimental value for the mother-to-be. Whether it's a bracelet, necklace or ring, it's up to you to choose what your friend will like best, before having the inscription of your choice engraved: initials or baby's name, date, symbols... There are even matching bracelets for mum and baby.
A baby-sitting voucher
To finish this selection of original gifts for a baby-shower, we suggest you offer free time to the future parents! The arrival of a baby is a wonderful moment, but after a few months, the parents will be delighted to be able to take some time for themselves by going to the cinema or dining out for example. You can offer your babysitting services or go through a specialised agency.
