Using Baby Shower Poems
Whether you write your own, find them on cards or download them online, baby shower poems are a great way to enhance a party. If you are soon to be hosting a baby shower or just planning to attend one, let baby shower poems add a little element of fun and elegance to your day.
Using Baby Shower Poems In Correspondence
The obvious place to use a baby shower poem is on the invitation. You can word the invite in a cute way using your poetic creativity or even use a poem to suggest gifts for the mom to be or offer directions to the party. Using a poem to make gift suggestions is a humorous way to ask for gifts without looking rude. Another nice way to use a baby shower poem is to write or have someone write a poem about babies for the cover of the shower invite.
If you are planning to attend a baby shower, why not make your own card using a baby shower poem. If you are artistic, you can handwrite it on a card that you make or even pen it inside a store bought card. If you aren't comfortable crafting a card, consider designing one on the computer and printing it on nice card stock. You can choose of poem you created or find a baby shower poem online.
Using Baby Shower Poems As A Game
Baby shower poems make memorable shower games. You could have each guest write an ode to the new baby and then have them read aloud. If you don't want guests to read them, you can simply collect them and give them to the mom to be for the baby's scrapbook. To make the task of writing poems easier on your guests, have them compose a poem in which each line starts with a letter of the baby's name. You could also ask guests to write humorous poems and then vote on which one gets the most laughs.
Using Baby Shower Poems On The Cake
Instead of the typical baby, pacifier, or rattle iced on a cake, consider having a poem inscribed in the frosting. The poem need not be long and can come from your creative mind or a literary source. Where ever it comes from, it is sure to provoke thoughts and comments from the guests. You can even have a guest read the poem in its entirety before refreshments are served.
