Fun With Baby Shower Paper Plates

Perhaps when you think of throwing a baby shower for a friend your mind automatically turns to making a list of the supplies you will need. Cups, forks, baby shower paper plates, and napkins probably top your list, as food and refreshments are a big part of throwing a great baby shower. While you will need baby shower paper plates in several sizes to accommodate serving finger foods, lunch and/or cake, there are many fun non food uses for baby shower paper plates.

The Baby Shower Paper Plate Game

Perhaps you have heard of the ribbon game that is played at bridal showers. In that particular game, guests keep track of how many ribbons the bride to be rips or breaks while opening her presents. Legend has it that the number of broken ribbons will equal the number of children the bride to be will one day have. The Baby Shower Paper Plate Game is similar. In this game, guests also keep track of how many ribbons are broken as gifts are opened. This can then represent the number of children that mother to be is carrying or it can represent how many hours that she will be in labor. As a twist, take the bows off of each package and use them to decorate one of the baby shower paper plates. Use a long ribbon to make a chin strap and award the mother with this makeshift bonnet as a souvenir of the game. Make sure to take a picture of her in her lovely hat.

Another great way to play a baby shower paper plate game is to discreetly mark the bottom of a few baby shower paper plates. You can use a felt pen, marker, sticker, or even a stamp. Then randomly place the marked paper plates back into the pile of plates. As guests help themselves to refreshments or cake, ask them to look for the mark you made on the bottom of their baby shower paper plates. All the guests with marked plates win a door prize.

Decorating With Baby Shower Paper Plates

A fun and inexpensive way to decorate for a shower is using baby shower paper plates. The plates already fit the theme of your shower, so they are a perfect fit with the balloons, streamers and banners you use to make the room festive. You can tape them up to the walls in pretty patterns or use them to hold streamers in place along the corners of your room.
