Baby showers put the Mommy-To-Be front and center but honoring the Grandparents-To-Be as well is a sweet sentiment every guest will remember. Baby shower guest lists typically include friends and family from all stages of the Mommy-To-Be’s life, from cousins to great aunts and co-workers to childhood best friends, so placing the Grandparents-To-Be at a place of honor is a fun way to get everyone acquainted.
A Facebook Superfan honored the Grandparents-To-Be by placing their baby photos at the entry of the event. With the addition of Snuggleey, our plush big baby rattle, she created an adorable display everyone loved. Take this baby shower idea a step further by making it a fun baby shower game. Have guests guess which pair is the Mommy-To-Be’s parents and which pair is the Daddy-To-Be’s parents. Some guests may have an easy time because they remember the day the photo was taken while others will intently study each baby’s feature trying to make the best choice. No matter what the outcome, you will get some guests reminiscing and the rest talking about just how cute everyone was as a baby!
Baby shower corsages are another way to honor the Grandma-To-Be without taking the spotlight away from the Mommy-To-Be. Each baby rattle corsage doubles as a fun toy for the new baby when the plush rattle is removed from the backing, making a special gift from Grandma to Baby once he or she is born.
From personalized baby shower tiaras and crowns honoring the Grandparents-To-Be, to matching embroidered sashes for both Mommy and Grandma-To-Be, you will be able to honor the Grandparents-To-Be in style.
