  • Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,
    How We Wonder Who You Are,
    A Little Girl or Little Boy,
    You're sure to bring A lot of Joy!
  • If a gift you wish to bring,
    Please remember this one thing, 
    As this is Baby Number Two 
    This simple thing we ask of you, 
    Most they have, but a few they need, 
    Smaller items like diapers, 
    And bottles to feed, 
    Clothes, sweet, handsome and blue, 
    They’ll sure bring a smile 
    As a baby boy will be here, in just a few! 
    But if you’re still stuck and in need of a clue, 
    Just look online at Babies R Us and Target, 
    And it will help you decide what to do!

Invitation Wording Ideas For When Mom (or Dad) Doesn’t Like Pink

I'm helping to throw a baby shower for my sister. She's having a girl but does not like the color pink at all. - Brandy

Any ideas for a cute poem or even just something I could write at the bottom of the invite to ask people not to buy pink clothes? I think it's kind of rude to say that but I don't want my sister to get a bunch of stuff she won't use for the baby. Thanks in advance!

1. With our first daughter on the way my husband was the one who didn't want pink so my friends who threw the shower put a quote from him on the invitation "Purple is better than pink" - Omar.  It worked pretty well.  

2. Ten tiny fingers, Ten tiny toes 
Ribbons, and curls, and lots of bows!
Blues, Purples, and Greens galore,
Leave the pink at the store!





  • There’s a precious baby on the way, 
    For a first time mother, a very special day 
    Help us welcome a new bundle of joy 
    A very special angel, a little baby boy!

  • Oh what fun! Oh what joy!
    (mommy's name) is having a baby boy!

  • Although a baby is tiny and cute
    They're not like a remote so you cannot press mute
    So please help me with this bundle of joy
    And buy him some clothes, diapers or toys!

Long Distance Baby Shower Invitation Wording (submitted by  readers)

Help - I need wording for long distance invitation Poems For Long Distance Showers

My daughter is coming home from California to Indiana and her and her hubby are driving. We want people to have all the gifts shipped due to the space situation in their car! So here's the poem I came up with plus I added the poem for giving books instead of cards (which by the way is a fabulous idea!). This poem will be an insert with the actual invitation.

Answers from Readers:
Sam & Jason have registered at Target & Babies R Us
So let’s make it easy and save them any worry or fuss
Our Mom-to-be has a long, three day trip
So instead of wrapping and giving, please just have it shipped!

Just one last request and we hope it’s not hard
Please bring a baby book in place of a card
By signing your book we will remember and share
The special gift of reading, even when you’re not there

Hope this helps - modify it to fit your situation.

Another Reader Question:
My sister's husband is in the Marines and they live in CA, we live in PA. They were only planning to have 2 kids and then gave all of their baby stuff away. Now my sister is pregnant with her 3rd baby (surprise!!) and no money to by baby items. How do I write an invitation asking people to send her stuff without having a baby shower.


Readers Answers:
Long distance shower/traveling mama invite wording.
I pulled some lines from your existing poems and added a couple in myself to create this addition. My sis in law lives in Hawaii and we are having her baby shower over here on the mainland:

Courtney lives on an island of sand,
What she takes on the plane must fit in one hand.
Let's make her trip home a smooth easy flight,
Since her belly is big and the luggage is tight.
If your gift will not fit in her purse on her hip,
please note her address and have your gift shipped. 


surprise!!

by: ALEX (LA,CA)

WE ARE PLEASE TO ANNOUNCE THAT (SISTER NAME AND BROTHER IN LAW NAME) are expecting their 3rd little blessing! We are having a long distance baby shower for them so please send gift cards to (their address or your address and send it to them in 1 bulk package)

Put a date on when to have it to you if you are going to mail them yourself! and to make it easier for the parents to shop have people all go to maybe target or Walmart! but if they wish to send them something like an item tell them they can order items online or ship them to the expecting parents!

Unique baby shower invitation wording
by: Fran

I am doing a shower for my sister-in-law and brother, who are having their 3rd little boy. She was not expecting a shower, so I am calling it a "sprinkle", because they had already gotten lots of stuff, but you can call it a shower. I combined several verses that I saw and added some of my own wording. They have 5 year old twin boys, which is where pair came in, but I am sure you could sub any word that rhymes. Hope this helps or at least gives you an idea.

Onesies, Diapers, Blankets Galore,
(mother's name) and (Father's name) are having one more.
Big brothers he'll have, a sweet little pair,
this is only a "sprinkle" to show that we care.
Please drop in to celebrate, before baby is due.
Their 3rd little boy, it is definitely BLUE.

Fourth Child Baby Shower Invitation Wording
by: ALEX (LA,CA)

We had another boy join our team
He has snuck in and wanted the next big dream
We are pleased and excited too
And would love for you to come and help us celebrate as we do!

Little (baby's name) has a need for a few things so please don't forget diapers, clothes, bottles and toys.

God thought 3 was an odd number and he wanted it to be even so he slipped #4 in on us!

- After these sayings you can just add the date, time, location and RSVP. You can also change the information to fit your needs. This is just something that you can use to get you started. Hope this helps! Good luck!
