Is your friend waiting for a baby? Is your little one just a year or two old and you remember that surprise baby shower you had? Well, it's time you surprised your friend as well and take it ahead of her.
Throw a baby shower that she will enjoy the most.
Plan your surprise party carefully.
Make sure you don't tell your friend anything about what's going, so no matter how busy you are organizing everything, try to act as normal as possible around her.
There is no way you haven't discussed about baby showers already, so you must have an idea or two about what she needs or what she would like for her baby shower.
Call her best friends and tell them about the party.
Ask some of them to help organize everything.
Ask them to keep the secret and tell the they are going to get invitations with more information very soon.
Choose a theme for the baby shower.
You might have heard that she would like to have a baby shower with everything home made or eco-friendly, or reminding of angels.
So, try to make her wish come true and make the invitations so as to match her desires.
You either make your invitations yourself, with the help of a friend that is more artistic, or buy invitations that relate to the theme.
Write the invitations as childish and funny as possible and send them.
Make sure you remind it is a surprise and what the theme is.
Talk to her husband and tell him to help you prepare the room for the guests.
You heard your friend so many times saying she would like the party to be in her own garden, but you need to get her out of the house.
If her desired location is in another place, ask her out in the most natural way.
Prepare the ornaments.
Either buy them or do them yourself, or with the help of your friends.
Again, they should stick to the chosen theme, but do not forget flowers.
Stick to white flowers for arrangements, if you know the mother did not mention anything else.
Presents are very important.
Talk to your friends and go for a gift hunt together, so you do not buy the same thing twice.
Choose things she will use: baby cradle, baby bath tub, books about taking care of children and do not forget the diaper cake.
Games.
As there are so many presents to open, no one wants to get bored in the process.
So try some games.
Bingo using numbered presents is an idea, while another is a guess who game with pictures of your children when they were babies or of yourself when you were babies.
And one last tip: have fun!
