Hi Everyone,

I am posting here here for some ideas for the "not so traditional" Baby Shower.

My BFF is currently thinking of having a mixed Baby Shower, possibly throwing a BBQ for the boys and the ladies will be inside doing stuff.

She is not super keen on the "cutesy" type thing and doesn't really want games, but I think I will throw a couple in there anyway as she said no games for her hens but was thrilled with the few we organised.

I told her about some of the things that are done in Blessingways and she likes a few of those ideas, like the bead bracelet and the candles and I told her that I was going to ask a friend who does pregnancy massage to come towards the end of her "party" so that way BFF could relax for an hour while we do the clean up.

So some fun but not so cutesy game ideas would be good.

I am sure her mother or mil will make the "official" cake but I ran my idea past her with a bassinette pavlova https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...1703-img-2764/ and she was really happy with this.

1 - I was thinking the iceblock baby game,

2 - I was thinking of a pass the parcel type thing and whoever gets the gift when the music stops, unwraps the parcel and there will be a baby trivia question and whoever gets the question right gets a small token prize and is out of the game ...... until everyone gets a prize.

3 - something else??

Does this sound ok??

I was going to do some research into the more appropriate crystal/gem stone beads that are related to birth/love/ no pain/ relaxation etc so any ideas on those sorts of crystals would be really good too.

Thanks so much guys
