Though anyone may enjoy this type of baby shower, it's most enjoyed with a younger group of party revelers.
Baby shower themes:
The baby bath shower theme and the ducky baby shower are perfect fits for this type of shower.
Baby shower invitations:
Design your baby shower invitations in the shape of a water drop. Make two drops of identical size, tape together, and print shower info on the inside. Be sure to include shower location and perhaps directions, in case out-of-town guests are unfamiliar with the area.
Decorations:
For this type of baby shower, the pool is its own decoration! Reserve your local public pool or a hotel's poolside room. Consider bringing helium balloons for extra punch. If you're sharing a pool, make sure to reserve a couple of tables nearby for guests to put their possessions and gifts. Pack extra towels, flip-flops and sunscreen, if you're going to be outdoors.
Games and prizes:
Put a poolside twist on some baby shower classics like "don't say baby."
If a guest accidentally says "baby", make them jump in the pool!
The menu:
Your poolside menu must be as easy as possible. Considering ordering delivery. Sub sandwiches or pizza would make great fare.
Have a variety of drinks and snacks on hand. If you're in an outdoor pool, don't forget to bring the cooler for drinks and foods needing refrigeration.
Party favors:
If your party is outside, consider giving each guest a mini sunscreen. If you're indoors, opt for something associated with water like drink mix, tea bags or shampoo/conditioner. Accompany with a note that says "Just Add Water!"
YeahBaby.com thoughts:
The mother-to-be will love this baby shower theme because being in a pool makes for a weightless environment. When her belly is this big, she'll appreciate any relief she can get!
