Baby Shower - Ideas needed

I hope you guys don't mind me posting this on the parenting board, but I figure most of you had a baby shower. I'm helping my mom plan my sister's baby shower and needed ideas for favors and games to play at the shower. All ideas needed!

Thank you so much in advance!

At my shower a couple of weeks ago, they did baby shower bingo, and the dirty diaper game. They used premmie diapers, closed the sides with cute pins, and put a hershey kiss in a few of them. Whoever got the 'dirty' diaper, won a prize.

For favors, they had the most adorable cookies from Flories Finales (a vendor on this site). They were in the shape of a baby bottle, a bib and a heart, they were adorable!!

Last one I was at we did bingo (which I love and was disappointed my mom didn't do it at my bridal shower).

Also had to guess the # of M&Ms in a baby bottle.

Also took a piece of ribbon and cut it to how much you think you need to get around the mommy's tummy (you do it before she arrives if it's a surprise), then whoever is closest wins. Someone at my table got within like a quarter of an inch!! It was bizarre!


I think the favor was a teddy bear sachet.

I threw a baby shower for a close friend 2 years ago...it was themed 'Think Pink' since she was adopting a baby girl SonicStef Design did my invites, I had pink flower arrangements, I cut Think Pink out of pink form core and hang it up. I did the baby clothes line, which everyone loved. I had the 'guess the baby food' game, again people really enjoyed that. I gave her a pink toybox and used it as the wishing well. I got her a Mom-to-Be ribbon to wear for the party. The baby was going to be named Caroline so I made up a CD full of baby songs, lullabyes and songs with her name in it. I played that at the shower as background music.
I think once you choice a theme it makes it much easier to plan.

Thank you for these wonderful ideas!

What is the closeline? Do you just hang up baby clothes?

I also brought her a 'Mother' scrapbook and everyone wrote advise to her inside of it. I also had pages for photos.
