October 3, 2007 18:59 - Co-Ed Baby Shower Ideas

The last thing guys want to do is go to a baby shower, right? Well probably...but there are some tools you can use to lure them in! We asked a couple of men what it would take to get them to go to a co-ed baby shower and both answered - Beer! And also, No Games! And if games are to be played, they must involve - Beer! (the perfect game for this situation is to have a baby bottle beer chugging competition) Also, try to make the shower decorations and favors male friendly. Have a BBQ, or meatballs, hoagies, meats and cheeses (man-friendly food) instead of tea sandwiches. Some good themes are Hawaiian, Jungle, Sports, or solid colors. And for favors/prizes, hand out gift cards or lottery scratch tickets. A great gift idea for the dad-to-be is to take a plain white T-shirt and attach teething rings, pacifiers, diaper rash cream, bibs, burp cloths and diapers to the shirt using a needle and thread. All-in-all, co-ed baby showers are a blast! There is less "awkwardness" and more laughing!
