Re: Baby Shower Invite Etiquette
Ah the irony…A baby shower which is celebrating impending motherhood and mommies are not to bring their children.
A better option is to have a room or space (basement) for the kids. Have toys for them to play with and serve kid friendly food (pizza, cake, cookies) that they will enjoy. Plus maybe play a Disney movie and hire a babysitter who can look after the children while the women enjoy the baby shower.
Truth is, most women will try and leave their kids at home - it’s a rare opportunity to have a girl’s afternoon out. But for the ones that can’t - yes, they may not like being told they can’t bring their children.
That’s exactly what my mom and sister did for my baby shower, my parents didn’t want to exclude the kids, but some ladies were offended that their men weren’t invited and they had to drive by themselves without a man
So be ready for all sort of backlash!!!
