Jungle animal themed shower ideas

Decorating a jungle themed baby shower is pretty easy especially if you already have a bunch of animal plush toys hanging around the house. You first have to decide on the colors that you will be using as backdrop. Always remember the three-color rule for decorations so you will still have a nice focus without the risk of making the party colors into a monotone mix. Once you have this decided, you can move on to choosing the baby shower centerpieces and banners which you will be decorating the baby shower with. You might want to bring the party outside to the garden since you will already have the greenery, plants, and palm trees to enhance the entire look. Lil Baby Cakes also offers several animal themed designs you can choose from including our 4 Tier Safari Giraffe Theme Diaper Cake. Set up your tables with centerpieces with a nice bonsai plant and top that with a nice animal plush toy or figurines which you can buy in stores. This will give you a safari or jungle feel for your guests. Another way to do this would be to put fruits like bananas, apples, and oranges on the table along with animal figurines. Not only are these inexpensive, but they will surely add color to your surroundings without ruining the color scheme of the baby shower.

Jungle themed food ideas

To have a focused baby shower, even your baby shower food should go with the theme. This can be easily done with the proper menu and right tableware. If you have extra budget, buy some jungle-inspired plates, cups, and napkins. While your guests are waiting, serve them some snacks that they can munch on. Animal crackers are a good way to set the jungle party mood, but you can also go for banana chips, jelly beans, and chocolate bits that have the same color as your motif. For your main dishes, get creative by naming the entrees with jungle related names, such as spaghetti rope vines or Madagascar macarons. You can also serve food options that are cut into animal shapes like cookies or even sandwiches. These finger food items will surely be a hit among your guests. As for drinks, you can go with flavors that have the same color as your background. Green apple flavored drinks or shakes along with yellow mango juices will make great fruit juice drinks for your baby shower. If you want to serve colas, you can always go with dark toned sodas and add vanilla ice cream on top to make them into a nice brown color. Soda ice cream floats will also be a hit if you will hold your baby shower on a hot summer day.

Safari baby shower games

When you come up with games during baby showers, try to make them as unique and as related to the theme as possible. Two good party games for a jungle theme baby shower would be a guessing game and a naming game. The first guessing game will involve a party bags either printed with animals or a normal brown paper bag, different baby items all with animal or safari prints, and handkerchiefs for blindfolding. You can choose how many of your guests will join this game. The mechanics are simple. Your guests will have to reach into the bags and correctly guess as many items as they can within the time limit. The guest that guesses the most number of correct items wins the game. The second game would be naming the babies of animals. You have to prepare a list of animals with their corresponding babys names. For example, you have chick for hens, eaglets for eagles, tadpoles for frogs, etc. Group your guests into fours or fives and have them list down their answers. The group that gets the most pair-names correctly wins.

Jungle baby shower favors
