Frequently a baby shower hostess is looking to throw a party for the mom-to-be who is expecting a boy yet doesn’t want to go the old pastel colored teddy bear route. This is where a farm animal theme comes in. It is of such a design that it screams out boy yet doesn’t offend the guests with an overly male design. A farm animal theme is the perfect thing for a boy-oriented baby shower which is still fit for the mostly female crowd.

Cows, Pigs, Chickens and More – Ways to Decorate With a Farm Animal Theme

There are so many cute ways to complete initial preparations and decorate a room for the farm animal theme baby shower. Invitations can be chosen with this particular motif so that the recipients get a feel for what the baby shower theme is going to be. The guests may also like this factor so that they can tailor their gifts around the theme, such as purchase a cow stuffed animal or farm animal picture frame as a gift. When the guests arrive to the shower, they should be met with a beautiful array of decorations which showcase the farm animal theme including farm animal balloons and a cake with farm animal decorations on top. This theme can be portrayed as minimally or as over the top as one likes with regard to decorations.

Barnyard Games

A great farm animal game to play at baby showers is the Mom and Dad Animal Names game. Each guest is given a sheet of paper which has 20 baby animal names and 20 Mom and Dad animal names on it. The idea of the game is for the attendees to match each baby animal name with their respective parents. The person who completes the most in the least amount of time wins. Another great barnyard-related boy baby shower game is the Barnyard Hunt. The hostess prior to the baby shower will hide a number of small farm animals around the room. The person who finds the most animals first, wins the barnyard prize.

A farm animal theme is a great way to get ready for the little boy on the way.
